TrailMate AI: An Open-Source AI Companion That Gets You Outside

Описание и применение

TrailMate AI – это открытое приложение, генерирующее короткие планы активностей на свежем воздухе с помощью локальной модели LLM, помогая пользователям выйти из дома и отключиться от экрана.

Задача

People often lack ideas or motivation to spend time outdoors, leading to screen‑bound habits.

Результат

TrailMate AI demonstrates how a locally hosted LLM can generate actionable outdoor plans, reducing screen time and encouraging real‑world exploration.

Рабочий процесс

• 1. User selects activity (e.g., nature walk, birdwatching).
• 2. User inputs available time and location description.
• 3. Frontend sends request to Node/Express backend.
• 4. Backend forwards prompt to local Ollama service using qwen2.5:3b model.
• 5. Model returns a short activity plan with practical steps and prompts.
• 6. Frontend displays the plan to the user.

The app is designed as a small, self-hostable project that developers can modify to use another locally available model.

For AI inference, it connects to Ollama and uses the open-weight qwen2.5:3b model by default.
