Overview

BioTip eyeApp is an AI-powered mobile application designed to revolutionize food quality assessment. Built for both individual consumers and businesses in the food industry, the app empowers users to evaluate the freshness of food products in real time simply by capturing a photo.

When a user uploads an image of a product containing a BioTip sensor sticker, the app sends it to a custom-trained AI model that detects the sticker, classifies its color, and determines whether the food is fresh, consume soon, spoiled, or no sticker detected. Each scan automatically records the location and time of the test, enabling users to revisit their scan history and track quality trends over time.

BioTip eyeApp bridges the gap between technology, transparency, and trust in the food industry — helping improve food quality, reduce waste, and promote smarter consumption decisions.

Our development team designed an experience that blends scientific accuracy with everyday ease. From a clean interface to real-time image classification, every detail promotes trust, safety, and healthy living.
