Inspiration

We were inspired by the need for quick and accessible health guidance for everyday users. Many people struggle to get reliable health information instantly, so we built an AI-powered assistant that provides basic health advice, symptom analysis, and wellness insights in a simple web interface.

What it does

AI Health Assistant is a web-based healthcare companion that allows users to describe symptoms and receive instant AI-generated health guidance, precautions, and recommendations on when to seek medical help. It also includes a BMI calculator for basic health tracking and promotes early health awareness.

How we built it

We built the application using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for the frontend with a modern responsive UI. We integrated real-world AI using the OpenRouter API to generate intelligent health responses. The system processes user inputs, sends them to the AI model, and displays personalized health guidance in real time.

Challenges we ran into

Integrating real-time AI responses smoothly

Handling API errors and response formatting

Designing a simple yet modern user interface

Ensuring safe health advice without medical diagnosis

Managing prompt design for accurate responses.
