Started with one of our teammates finding forgotten minced pork in the fridge —no idea how long it had been open, or whether it was still safe. Talking to others, we realized we weren't alone. Most had no real system,just memory or phone notes. When unsure, they'd rather throw it out than risk it.
FreshTrack is an AI-powered food management app solving a common problem: not knowing what's in your fridge, when it was opened, or if it's still safe to eat. Simply scan your food with your camera. The AI automatically recognizes it, logs the opening date, and estimates its shelf life. When items near expiry, you get a smart notification and recipe suggestions using ingredients you already have, so nothing goes to waste. Our proudest feature is the Streak Pet—a virtual mascot that gets happier when you use ingredients before they spoil. During testing, this surprised us most. Users returned not just for reminders, but to keep their streak alive and their pet happy, completely shifting their behavior. Finally, the Impact Dashboard ties it all together, showing weekly food saved, CO₂ reduced, and money kept in your pocket.
