Daily UI #004 | Calculator

Challenge: Design a calculator. Standard, scientific, or specialty calculator for something such as a mortgage? Is it for a phone, a tablet, a web app?

Solution: As someone who finds myself splitting tabs with my friends, I thought to calculate everyones bill based on what they had, and the tax & tip relative to their items

Goal: Create a calculator that makes it easier for friends to split a bill.

Hypothesis: By adding the ability to take a picture, of a bill, use APIs to translate the image into text, let users select who had what, and request will help increase the cash flow through Venmo.

Metrics:
- Percent of people that try to split bill by scanning
- DAU who perform this act
- How much money gets requested this way (how does this compare to the standard approach and how does it trend over time)

Requirements:
- Scan or take image to read the receipt
- Let select who ordered what
- Review the final amount who owes what
- Split tip and tax relative to each person's bill
- Request all the friends on the bill at once

Extra:
- Remember top used friends
- Use AI to remember when you ate at certain restaurants and with who for next time to eliminate typing to search
- After adding someone to bill, remember them so they don't have to type to find them again
- Make it clear at the end that they are requesting from friends, and it might not include the total amount (including themselves)
