🦥 SlothSort — A Sloth-Themed File Organizer

SlothSort is a web application designed to make file organization simpler and less tedious. The goal is to help users spend less time manually organizing files and explore how AI could make the process easier.

I built SlothSort using Base44 and a React-based frontend.

I also explored Ollama integration to investigate using open-weight AI models for file-organization suggestions. However, I haven't connected and tested a real model yet, so local AI inference remains unfinished.

Open innovation gives developers the freedom to explore models and tools beyond closed, hosted AI APIs.

For SlothSort, a properly configured local model could eventually provide more control over how file information is processed and allow experimentation with different models. This project is an early step toward exploring those possibilities.

I haven't published an agent session for this project yet.

SlothSort aims to reduce the repetitive effort involved in organizing files. I haven't measured time savings with real users yet, so testing the workflow and measuring its benefits are future goals.

I'll add any applicable partner prize categories after verifying their requirements.
