Hey Product Hunt!
I'm Haiming, and I'm excited to share UseFirst with you today.
The Problem:
Like many families, we struggled with household inventory management. We'd buy things we already had, forget what was expiring, and waste food and money. My wife and I found ourselves constantly asking "Do we have this?" or "When did we buy that?"
The Inspiration:
The idea came during a frustrating moment when we discovered expired items in our pantry that we'd completely forgotten about. I thought: "What if there was a smart way to track everything we own, know what to use first, and never waste again?"
What Makes UseFirst Different:
Instead of just another inventory app, I built UseFirst with AI-powered recognition so you can simply point your camera at items and they're automatically identified and categorized. The app intelligently prioritizes what to use first based on expiry dates and usage patterns, helping families reduce waste while staying organized.
The Journey:
Building this has been a learning experience: from training the AI recognition models to designing an interface that works for busy families. The most rewarding part? Seeing early users reduce their household waste by 30-40% and finally feel in control of their inventory.
What's Next:
We're working on Android support, family sharing improvements, and even smarter AI features. I'd love your feedback and ideas!
Try it out and let me know what you think. Every family deserves to know what they have and use it efficiently.
