Why 90% of Expiry Trackers Fail (and how I’m using AI to fix it) 🎙️

Hi Product Hunt community!

I ve spent the last few months obsessing over a simple problem: Why is food waste still so high when everyone has a smartphone?

After talking to dozens of users, I realized the "villain" isn't forgetfulness it's Input Friction. Most trackers require you to type in names, select dates from a picker, and assign categories manually. It feels like a second job.

That s why I decided to build something different for my launch this Thursday. Here s the approach I took:

Why does everyone hate expiration tracking apps? (I think I found the answer)

Most apps fail because typing is a chore. I ve been experimenting with Google Gemini to parse voice commands into structured data. Would you prefer saying 'Milk, Friday' or filling out a 4-field form? Let s discuss UX friction!
