Winners Built With Gemini 2.0 Flash

An agent for foreign visitors caught in an earthquake or typhoon in Japan, unable to read the warnings or tell where to evacuate. Drawing on official meteorological and geospatial data plus preparedness guides, it delivers alerts, shelter directions and ready-to-send safety messages in the user's own language.

A phone and tablet recipe app built around the annoyances of cooking: messy hands, jargon you keep looking up, paper recipes you cannot use. A wake word starts voice control that answers instantly from a local model, and questions about terms or substitutions are handled with RAG. Photograph a magazine page and it becomes data.

A system that surfaces road hazards before you drive them. It pulls Street View imagery every 50 metres along a chosen route and has AI analyse each point from several angles — blind corners, road surface, visibility — scoring risk on a ten-point scale. The result is a colour-coded map you can question spot by spot in chat.

A weekend outing planner for families with small children. Register the area you live in and the agent keeps collecting local events from the web into a database, then uses vector search to surface the ones closest to your tastes. Pick one and it builds a full day around it, including travel, meals and places to change a nappy.

Pregnancy brings changes day by day, and memory alone makes them hard to describe at a check-up. BLOOMS is an iOS and web app that takes over the record-keeping: generative AI responds to the notes and photos a user leaves, suggests keywords to look things up, and summarises a stretch of entries to bring to an appointment.

A web app for households where two working parents and the price of picture books squeeze out bedtime stories. Pick an age, a script, a length and a genre, and the AI writes a story, illustrates it and reads it aloud. At around a dozen yen per episode, a fresh book can match the child's stage and interests every time.
