## Leftover Genius – AI-Powered Kitchen Inventory & Waste Management Leftover Genius is an intelligent kitchen management application designed to help households, restaurants, and food service businesses reduce food waste and manage ingredients more efficiently. The application allows users to maintain a digital inventory of ingredients, track available quantities, monitor expiry dates, and identify items that are approaching expiration. By integrating Google Gemini AI, Leftover Genius generates intelligent preparation recommendations based on available ingredients, helping users make better use of what they already have instead of letting food go to waste. The application also includes a manager review and approval workflow, ingredient usage tracking, and an activity history to maintain transparency and monitor kitchen operations. **Key Features:** - **Smart Inventory Management:** Add, update, and manage kitchen ingredients and quantities. - **Expiry Monitoring:** Identify ingredients that are expiring soon or have already expired. - **AI-Powered Recommendations:** Use Google Gemini to generate preparation plans based on available ingredients. - **Manager Approval:** Review and approve AI-generated preparation recommendations. - **Usage Tracking:** Record ingredient consumption and update inventory accordingly. - **Activity History:** Maintain a record of kitchen inventory and usage activities. **Technology Stack:** - Python - Streamlit - Google Gemini API - SQLite Leftover Genius aims to demonstrate how AI agents can support everyday operational decision-making, improve resource utilization, and contribute to reducing unnecessary food waste.
