Whereabouts?

A topical and innovative app that allows you to scan the label of any item and have it tell you were it’s from and suggest local alternatives

Comment

Inspiration

We were inspired by recent events. We wanted to make something topical and useful that can capitalize on the current state of society, especially in Canada. With all of these talks of tariffs, we're frankly tArrffied. With a strong emphasis on shopping local, we wanted to make something that is easy as possible for the average person to use.

What it does

Our app allows users to scan products and figure out where they come from! Users can shop locally and reduce their carbon footprint at the same time!

How we built it

We built the mock-up of the app using primarily Figma and Canvas was used for the pitch deck.

Challenges we Faced

We struggled determining an idea for the project and we spent quite a lot of time brainstorming and not working.

Achievements

We are proud to have been able to accomplish what we did. We were able to make a proper app mock-up and did plenty of research involved in starting a business. We worked together as a team to make a wonderful app that we believe is important and impactful.

What's next for Whereabouts?

We plan on expanding our product globally and helping everyone worldwide to be sustainable and shop knowingly.
