Make the invisible visible.

Three software-only tools that turn everyday footprints into numbers you can act on. No sensors, no integrations, no excuses: each one is buildable in a single hackathon day.

The idea behind all three

Same move, three domains.

A bill, a wardrobe, a plate: each hides its footprint, and what stays invisible never changes. Each tool reveals one honest number, then hands the user one action worth taking.

Energy WattWise your electricity bill, itemized appliance by appliance
Clothes ReWear your wardrobe, back in circulation through local swaps
Food GreenPlate your plate, scored A to E before you eat it

01 · Energy

WattWise

Your electricity bill, finally itemized. One number in euros becomes three actions worth taking.

WattWise · The solution

Reads the meter you already have.

Millions of European homes carry smart meters that record consumption every 15 to 30 minutes. WattWise turns that dormant data into advice, with zero new hardware.

Appliance-level feedback cuts household use by about 12%, roughly three times what monthly bills achieve (Armel et al., Energy Policy, 2013). Demo runs on bundled 7-day sample households with transparent rules; no live meter needed.

02 · Clothes

ReWear

The most sustainable wardrobe is the one already hanging in your closet.

ReWear · The solution

Swapping, made easier than shopping.

A digital wardrobe plus a local swap network. Garments stop being clutter and start being currency, with the environmental savings counted out loud.

EU citizens discard roughly 11 to 12 kg of textiles a year and under 1% of clothing is recycled into new garments. Demo runs on a built-in footprint table and mock listings; builders can seed it live with their own wardrobes.

03 · Food

GreenPlate

A Nutri-Score for the planet, computed before you eat.

GreenPlate · The solution

One plate. One score. One swap.

Food drives roughly a quarter of a European household's footprint, yet no one can see a meal's impact at the moment of choosing. GreenPlate closes that loop in seconds.

The EU wastes about 59 million tonnes of food a year, roughly 132 kg per person. Footprint values and swap rules ship inside the app as lookup tables; the country toggle is the built-in transnational angle.

Why these three

Built for one day. Aimed at every day.

Three domains, one design principle: reveal the number, hand over the action. Each demo stands on mock data and lookup tables, so the whole pitch works without a single external dependency.
