Gamified Carbon Foot Print Tracker

We want to transform the narrative of our country from ‘India is dirty’ to ‘India is changing, because its people are changing’.

Urban youth care about the environment but rarely stay consistent. Existing sustainability apps feel boring, data-heavy, and lack motivation. We wanted to turn eco-friendly actions into something social, fun, and competitive. EcoQuest gamifies sustainable living with AI-verified eco-actions, map-based territory claiming, streaks, badges, challenges, leaderboards, and a community photo feed. Users earn Green Points for real impact. We used React/React Native for the frontend, Node/Python for the backend, MongoDB for data, Mapbox for mapping, and an AI pipeline for photo verification and fraud detection. The UI follows Strava-style activity cards with our existing design system. We built a functional MVP that verifies eco-actions, visualizes real impact on a map, and keeps users engaged with streaks, badges, and challenges—all within a short timeline. Gamification dramatically increases user motivation, AI verification needs constant calibration, and map-driven design makes sustainability feel real and visible. Launch beta with real users, add brand partnerships for rewards, expand AI models, build campus-wide challenges, and refine the map contribution system for large-scale adoption. And market it throughout Hyderabad.
