Sortivoa

Sortivoa product concept in a branded setting

Designed around4 AI workflows

Project overview

Sortivoa explores household reuse through a mobile experience built around a camera-led item card with location-rule drawer. A household reuse assistant connecting material candidates, local-source guidance and creative reuse ideas. The proposed journey connects item lens, local guide, reuse ideas, household log. Four original phone showcases establish the visual direction, while the case study defines the supporting feature set and a proposed Kotlin architecture.

The challenge

Households need item suggestions connected to verified local references rather than universal disposal guesses. On a phone, the person also needs to capture information quickly, understand where an answer came from and return to the original material without navigating through a dense desktop interface.

  • Keep item lens and local guide connected within a short mobile flow.
  • Make material candidates correctable when the model misreads the input.
  • Explain reuse ideation through visible references or user-selected preferences.
  • Keep changes, sharing and data retention under explicit user control.

Our solution

The design begins with a camera-led item card with location-rule drawer, using large touch targets, short task sequences and contextual sheets. Suggest likely material labels for the user to confirm. Explain selected local guidance with dated source links. The companion views keep drafts, original material and accepted decisions distinct. A teal, white and sunflower visual system gives this app its own character within the collection.

  • Suggest likely material labels for the user to confirm.
  • Explain selected local guidance with dated source links.
  • Draft creative reuse options from the user's description.
  • Organize saved decisions without inventing environmental impact metrics.

Key features

  • Item lens

    Review a household object scan with editable material candidates.

  • Local guide

    Review an AI-assisted answer with dated local guidance links and an Unknown rules state.

  • Reuse ideas

    Review three editable repurposing ideas for an item with a saved-material list.

  • Household log

    Review donated items, personal notes, saved collection locations and reminders.

  • Material candidates

    Suggest likely material labels for the user to confirm.

  • Local-source retrieval

    Explain selected local guidance with dated source links.

  • Reuse ideation

    Draft creative reuse options from the user's description.

  • Household summarization

    Organize saved decisions without inventing environmental impact metrics.

  • Saved local sources

    Keep the guidance pages the user selected.

  • Donation log

    Record items the household chooses to give away.

  • Collection reminders

    Set personal reminders for selected collection events.

  • Decision notes

    Preserve why the user accepted or rejected a suggestion.

Proposed technology stack

Proposed Android architecture using Kotlin and Jetpack Compose. AI processing, storage and synchronization are design proposals for this concept, not integrations implemented by this portfolio.

  • Kotlin
  • Jetpack Compose
  • Room
  • AI services

The results

The concept defines four mobile views, four AI workflows and twelve feature areas. The next validation would ask a user to complete item lens, inspect the proposed local guide output and correct an intentional extraction or suggestion error. Evaluation would focus on source traceability, correction effort and task completion. No usability study or business-impact measurement is claimed.
