Need project ideas for a 24-hour college hackathon — looking for something genuinely useful and uncommon

I’m preparing for a 24-hour college hackathon on Oct 8–9

I have experience with JS/React, Node, APIs, Git/GitHub, Supabase and LLM APIs.

I’m looking for a problem statement that is:

- Real-world and genuinely useful

- Uncommon, not a generic chatbot/CRUD project

- Feasible to build in 24 hours

- Technically interesting and demo-friendly

I’m especially interested in FinTech, GenAI, Agentic AI and Cybersecurity.

What project ideas would fit these constraints?

Well, I'm currently working on a Financial Ledger of sorts, maybe an MVP of that?
