The app lets a finance user upload PDFs or images, classify them as invoices or receipts, extract data with Azure Document Intelligence and Azure OpenAI, apply validation rules, suggest a general ledger account, and track review history.I also cover the project structure and setup, including a monorepo with separate backend and frontend folders, Python and Node environment setup, and the use of AI coding agents to build services, schemas, and pipeline steps. The video ends with the Azure deployment flow, including resource groups, model deployments, secrets, environment variables, a Docker-based production setup, and container app hosting with password-protected login. 👋🏻 About Me Hi!
