Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Running a kitchen efficiently these days isn’t easy between busy schedules, constant meal decisions, and trying not to waste food, it can get overwhelming fast. That’s where SmartBite comes in. It’s an AI-powered web app built to make cooking and kitchen management feel effortless, smarter, and a lot more fun. Developed with Next.js and Firebase and powered by Genkit, SmartBite brings Google’s Gemini and Veo models to do some pretty advanced stuff like scanning grocery receipts using OCR, recognizing multiple pantry items through image detection, and even predicting when your fresh produce might go bad. What truly sets SmartBite apart is its team of AI agents that help you at every step of your food journey, from grocery shopping and meal planning to cooking and keeping track of your nutrition. These agents can whip up recipe ideas based on what you already have, your tastes, and your diet, build flexible meal plans, and even guide you through recipes with AI generated images, voice narration, and quick summary videos. But SmartBite does not stop there it also acts as a personal health and financial coach, studying your grocery habits to give practical advice on budgeting and eating better, while keeping everything smooth and easy to use. Thanks to its modular, workflow based design, SmartBite is built to grow and adapt making it perfect for more advanced, context-aware applications in the future. In short, it’s not just a kitchen helper; it’s a lifestyle upgrade that cuts food waste, eases decision fatigue, and promotes healthier, more sustainable living paving the way for a smarter, more mindful approach to food and home life.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
