+## 📋 Overview
+
+FinRyver is an AI-powered financial statement generation platform that automatically converts trial balance data into comprehensive financial reports including balance sheets, cash flow statements, and profit & loss statements. Built with FastAPI and leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs), it streamlines the financial reporting process for accountants, auditors, and financial professionals by automating the generation of detailed financial notes and statements from structured trial balance inputs.
+
+## 🎯 Key Features
+
+- **Automated Trial Balance Processing**: Upload Excel files containing trial balance data and automatically extract structured financial information
+- **AI-Powered Financial Notes Generation**: Utilize LLMs to generate comprehensive financial notes with detailed explanations and context
+- **Multi-Statement Support**: Generate Balance Sheets, Cash Flow Statements, and Profit & Loss statements from the same data source
+- **Excel Output Generation**: Export all generated reports and notes to professional Excel formats
+- **RESTful API Architecture**: Easy integration with existing financial systems through well-documented REST endpoints
+- **Flexible Note Selection**: Generate specific financial notes by number or create comprehensive reports covering all relevant sections

+
+## 💻 Implementation Details
+
+### Core Components
+
+1. **Trial Balance Processor** (`notes/data_extraction.py`)
+   - Extracts and validates trial balance data from Excel uploads
+   - Converts unstructured financial data into standardized JSON format
+   - Implements data cleaning and normalization algorithms
+
+2. **LLM Notes Generator** (`notes/llm_notes_generator.py`)
+   - Integrates with language models for intelligent note generation
+   - Contextualizes financial data with industry-standard explanations
+   - Supports flexible note numbering and categorization
+
+3. **Financial Statement Generators**
+   - **Balance Sheet Module** (`bs/`): Generates comprehensive balance sheets with supporting notes
+   - **Cash Flow Module** (`cf/`): Creates cash flow statements with categorized activities
+   - **P&L Module** (`pnl/`): Produces profit & loss statements with detailed breakdowns
+
+4. **Excel Export Engine** (`notes/json_to_excel.py`)
+   - Converts processed JSON data into professional Excel formats
+   - Maintains financial statement formatting standards
+   - Supports multiple output templates
+
+### Design Patterns
