AIDCYCLE: AI-Powered Circular Giving

AidCycle is an AI-powered platform designed to stop useful household items from becoming waste too early. Many damaged or unwanted objects are thrown away even when they could still be repaired, reused, or donated. At the same time, many people cannot easily afford to replace basic items. This issue is especially prevelant for victims of natural disasters. AidCycle helps bridge that gap by analyzing an item, ranking its best next-life options, connecting it to repair support or someone who needs it, and helping track the item through delivery. Our target users are people with damaged or unwanted items, people who need affordable household items, repair shops, riders, and community or donation organizations. The platform is especially useful in situations where repair and reuse can reduce both waste and replacement costs. We used native.builder to quickly turn the AidCycle idea into a working product interface and improve the main user flows during the hackathon. It helped us build and refine screens faster, while we focused on the more unique parts of the solution, including AI image analysis, recommendation ranking, repair support, recipient matching, rider workflows, and item tracking. AidCycle brings these parts together into one connected journey: understand, decide, repair, match, move, and track
