Sprinkle: Finding a Better Home for the Things We Donate

Описание и применение

Sprinkle упрощает процесс пожертвований, автоматически определяя, какие организации рядом принимают конкретные предметы, используя Gemini для анализа, поиска и сопоставления, а также Cloudflare для кэширования и ограничения запросов.

Задача

People have useful items to donate but struggle to find nearby organizations that accept them and meet current needs.

Результат

Sprinkle streamlines the donation process by automating item parsing, organization discovery, policy research, and matching, reducing donor effort and increasing the likelihood that donated items reach organizations in need.

Рабочий процесс

• 1. User enters location and donation description in natural language.
• 2. Gemini‑3.5‑flash‑lite parses input into structured donation items.
• 3. Gemini‑3.7‑flash performs grounded Google Search to discover nearby organizations.
• 4. Gemini researches each organization’s donation page via Google Search and URL context to extract accepted items, exclusions, drop‑off details, and current needs.
• 5. Gemini compares donated items with organization policies and assigns a match score.
• 6. TypeScript applies deterministic ranking, caching, rate limiting, and verification rules.
• 7. Results are displayed with verification labels (Confirmed, Likely, Call first, Unknown) and source links.
• 8. User can review and decide where to donate.
