- What it does

Dream — Build It is a complete college application toolkit that combines portfolio management with AI-powered content generation:

- Portfolio Builder: Comprehensive tracking of academics, work experience, awards, test scores, and extracurricular activities - AI Essay Generator: Creates personalized college application essays using top performing AI models, tailored to each student's unique story - College Recommendations: Suggests colleges and majors from a database of 300+ universities based on student profiles and preferences - Portfolio Analytics: AI-powered assessment providing strength scores, feedback, and improvement recommendations

~ Why I built this ~

As someone who went through the college application process, I remember how overwhelming it was to: - Keep track of all achievements across 4 years of high school - Write compelling essays that actually reflected my experiences - Find colleges that matched my profile and interests - Present everything coherently to admissions committees

Current solutions are either expensive consulting services or generic template-based tools. I wanted to create something that democratizes access to personalized, high-quality college application support.

The platform is deployed and running at https://dreambuild.it.com You can sign in with Google (invitation code system for controlled access during beta, due to high cost of top performing AI model API inference).

Built this over the past few months as a side project. Would love to hear your thoughts and experiences with college applications - both the pain points and what worked well.
