Overview of the issue and your approach: Waste mismanagement is one of today’s most urgent environmental challenges. Plastics, electronics, and other recyclable materials often end up in landfills or the ocean, harming ecosystems and contributing to climate change. Many individuals want to recycle but are deterred by complicated sorting processes, lack of nearby facilities, and minimal incentives to participate.

SustainFlow addresses these barriers by providing an easy-to-use digital solution that simplifies recycling while rewarding users for sustainable actions. The app utilizes AI to identify recyclable items through a scan feature, instantly providing users with information on how much they can earn in cash or points per kilogram. Users can then locate nearby recycling centers, schedule a drop-off or request a pickup, and track their recycling history.

The app’s built-in guide educates users on what materials can be recycled and how to prepare them for processing. The interactive map feature connects users with verified recycling centers, ensuring accessibility. Additionally, the financial rewards encourage consistent engagement, turning sustainability into an attractive habit rather than an obligation.
