About the Project
Leaf & Life is an AI-based web platform that aims to popularize home plant ownership among city-dwellers in Nepal, as the polluted air and lack of nature makes many want to have their own piece of greenery, but most are unable to choose what kind of plant to grow, how to care for it, and find appropriate and affordable ways to buy, sell, or pass on the plants. Leaf & Life offers an all-in-one solution that employs AI to help identify unknown plants and provide information, recommend plants based on the space and sunlight available, and create a marketplace for local buying, selling, thrifting and swapping plants, while also offering a rewards-based system. Leaf & Life differentiates itself from competitors by combining together a number of services that previously were only available separately and offering a unified, easy-to-use experience, as well as utilizing cutting-edge technology to help both users and local nurseries involved in plant ownership and care.
Key Features:
- Community Challenges and Rewards
- AI-Based Plant Identification & Recommendation
- Hyperlocal Plant Marketplace (Buy, Sell, Swap & Thrift)
- Plant Care Guidance
- Air Quality Impact Estimation
