Abstract: In today's world, wasting food is a major problem for both our finances and the environment. This project introduces an AI-powered mobile application designed to help users manage their food supplies and prevent waste. The application uses Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and image processing techniques to automatically track food items. For packaged goods, the system scans and reads the expiry dates directly from the labels. For unlabeled items, such as fresh fruits and vegetables, the AT uses specific rules to estimate freshness based on the purchase date and storage method. By providing real-time freshness reports and automatic alerts, the app tells users exactly which items need to be consumed first. This technology simplifies kitchen management, helps families save money, and promotes a more sustainable lifestyle by reducing food waste through intelligent tracking.
