Lifeform enables users to engage in outdoor exploration, identify living things with AI, and track progress through gamified mechanics, demonstrating the feasibility of open-weight AI in real-world applications.

- Explore outdoors and find an interesting living thing.
- Upload a photo to the app.
- Receive AI-generated identification, confidence level, and description.
- Add the discovery to a personal collection.
- Earn XP, level up, complete daily missions, and track progress.
- Record observations in a Field Journal and build exploration streaks.

With Lifeform, you can photograph a plant, bird, insect, fungus, or other animal and ask an AI naturalist to identify it.
I built Lifeform using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Node.js, Express, MongoDB, and open-weight Gemma models.
During local development, I used Gemma 3 4B through Ollama.
For the hosted version, I integrated Gemma 4 through Google's GenAI API.
AI identifications can be wrong, so results should be treated as suggestions rather than scientific confirmation.
