A Level OCR NEA

Hello

I have an idea for an NEA project but im not sure how doable it is and my programming skills are really limited

This is what I've written so far about it:

"For my project, I am planning to create a program that will aid e-commerce entrepreneurs to conduct their business much more efficiently and quickly. Typically, online business owners must manually list items; setting prices, creating descriptions and uploading images, which can be time-consuming and repetitive. My program aims to reduce that work-load by automatically generating a draft listing based on a product title entered by the user using an AI-assisted software system. The system will then access a structured database to retrieve any relevant product record and images.
The software, using rule-based logic and predefined templates, will be able to create descriptions, set prices, and add relevant details, and the user will be able to adjust and edit the draft that is created. The AI will be able to analyse the images it retrieves and use them to set what colour the item is, or its material and such. Price-estimation will be rule-based, meaning that specific products will have specific base prices retrieved from a brand pricing table (e.g.: Rolex = £1000, Seiko = £120). This can then be adjusted based on certain conditions and accessories using a multiplier.
The generated draft will then be presented to the user, who can review and edit it before saving it. This ensures accuracy and efficiency while maintaining absolute user control."

I'd appreciate some help with this. I really want to get an A* and not let my parents down.

Only issue is you're not incorporating complex things like hash maps, just using AI to give price. If you can add more complex features somehow maybe but as it is probably not
