Grow Sober is a mobile app designed to support individuals on their journey to sobriety by offering structured, daily check-ins and visual progress tracking. A winner for "Best Overall Hack Runner Up" during AstonHack10, the app leverages AI and gamified visuals to help users stay mindful and motivated as they reduce or eliminate alcohol consumption.

Drinking is deeply embedded in many cultures, but it can quickly become a path toward addiction. Despite the widespread nature of this issue, one-on-one support tools remain scarce. Grow Sober was built to provide a more personal, daily intervention tool to help people regain control of their habits.

• Users set sobriety goals and are prompted to complete daily sobriety checks.

• These checks use cognitive and facial recognition tests, based on research-backed methods to detect intoxication.

• Each completed day contributes to growing a virtual tree, symbolizing the user's growth and progress.

• Visual progress tracking helps build positive reinforcement and accountability.

• Frontend: Built with Flutter and Dart for cross-platform mobile deployment.

• Backend: Developed using Python and Flask, with SQLite for lightweight data storage.

• AI Integration: Connected to an external API capable of assessing intoxication levels using facial recognition and behavioral inputs.
