AI应用开发日志:我们的应用故事开始了
这是一次关于技术、坚持和合作的旅程。我们将分享每一个细节——从我们的技术选择到我们遇到的现实问题。这是一个真实的成长故事。我们期待与代码和思想世界中的其他创作者建立联系。
技术、团队合作与坚韧的史诗
1. 黄金时代的回响
2012年,移动互联网的繁荣正如火如荼。我们这个由两名后端开发者和一名具有敏锐产品意识的UI/UX设计师组成的强大团队,站在了这场革命的中心。我们开发了几款实用应用,吸引了数百万的月活跃用户。这是“工具之王,流量就是现金”的时代——我们亲历了移动互联网从萌芽到巅峰的黄金时代。
2. AI的觉醒
快进到2023年末。随着大型语言模型开始展现其颠覆性潜力,我们感受到了一种熟悉的激动——历史正在重演。我们最初对几个最小可行产品的实验并没有取得预期的成功,主要是由于模型的局限性,但技术进步的速度令人瞩目。ChatGPT类模型的认知飞跃、多模态能力的迅速成熟,以及开源生态系统的爆炸性增长,让我们清楚地意识到:AI原生应用的战国时代已经来临。
3. 回归本源:用AI重建
我们擅长构建解决实际问题的工具。因此,我们决定回归本源,利用AI重新定义传统应用的垂直细分市场。正如所说:“每个产品都适合进行AI重启。”我们专注于全球市场,推出了10种语言的应用——中文、英文、俄文、日文、韩文、葡萄牙文、意大利文、西班牙文、法文和德文,主要面向西方市场。
4. 起航:全球探险
当我们的应用在国际应用商店首次亮相时,我们知道这不仅仅是一次产品发布。这是一个来自移动互联网黄金时代的老兵们的新篇章,是AGI革命中的一个新注脚。我们并不寻求在AI历史上留下不可磨灭的印记。我们只想成为其中的一部分,拥有这段经历和记忆。这段旅程,源于我们对技术和产品设计的共同热情,是我们倾注全力的使命。
为了满足你的好奇心,以下是我们应用的详细信息:
DietCam – 你的AI驱动卡路里与饮食追踪器。精准管理你的体重,达到你的目标。
DietCam使卡路里追踪变得轻松而准确。拍摄你的餐点照片,我们的先进AI会立即提供详细的卡路里和宏量营养素分解。无论你是想减肥、增肌,还是保持健康的生活方式,DietCam都能帮助你轻松实现目标。
我们面临着像Cal AI这样的强大竞争对手,该应用由一位知名的18岁开发者开发,还有其他成熟的健康管理软件。我们优化了许多计算和追踪过程,并对AI识别中的深度分析进行了精细调整,以确保我们的应用计算尽可能准确。
我们的官方网站现已上线:[https://dietcam--fir-ai-app-dev.us-central1.hosted.app](https://dietcam--fir-ai-app-dev.us-central1.hosted.app)
我们将记录整个旅程,并与大家分享,包括我们的技术栈决策、所面临的挑战等。希望在前进的过程中与其他志同道合的人建立联系。

"This is a journey of tech, persistence, and collaboration. We'll be sharing every detail—from our technical choices to the real-world problems we've encountered. It’s a genuine growth story. We look forward to connecting with fellow creators in the world of code and thought."
An Odyssey of Tech, Teamwork, and Tenacity
1. Echoes of a Golden Age
The year was 2012, and the mobile internet boom was in full swing. Our trio, a formidable alliance of two backend developers and a UI/UX designer with a keen product sense, stood at the epicenter of this revolution. We built several utility apps that garnered millions of monthly active users. This was the "king of tools, traffic is cash" era—a golden age of mobile internet that we experienced from its nascent beginnings to its peak.
2. The AI Awakening
Fast forward to late 2023. As large language models began to show their disruptive potential, we felt a familiar stir—history was repeating itself. Our initial experiments with a few MVP products didn't quite take off due to model limitations, but the pace of technological advancement was breathtaking. The cognitive leap of ChatGPT-like models, the rapid maturity of multimodal capabilities, and the explosion of the open-source ecosystem made one thing clear: The Warring States period of AI-native applications was upon us.
3. Back to Our Roots: Rebuilding with AI
We excel at building tools that solve real problems. So, we decided to return to our roots and leverage AI to reinvent traditional applications in a vertical niche. As the saying goes, "every product is ripe for an AI reboot." We're focused on a global audience, launching our app in 10 languages—Chinese, English, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Italian, Spanish, French, and German—with a primary focus on Western markets.
4. Setting Sail: A Global Expedition
As our app makes its debut on international app stores, we know this is more than just a product launch. It's a new chapter for a group of veterans from the mobile internet's golden age, a new footnote in the AGI revolution. We aren't seeking to leave an indelible mark on AI history. We just want to be a part of it, to have the experience and the memories. This journey, fueled by our shared passion for technology and product design, is a mission we're pouring our all into.
To satisfy your curiosity, here's the lowdown on our app:<p>DietCam – Your AI-Powered Calorie & Food Tracker. Manage your weight and hit your goals with precision.
DietCam makes calorie tracking effortless and accurate. Snap a photo of your meal, and our advanced AI instantly provides a detailed breakdown of calories and macros. Whether you're aiming to lose weight, build muscle, or maintain a healthy lifestyle, DietCam helps you reach your goals with ease.
We're up against formidable competitors like Cal AI, developed by a well-known 18-year-old, and other established health management software. We've optimized many of the calculation and tracking processes, and we’ve fine-tuned our deep analysis in AI recognition to ensure our app's calculations are as precise as possible.
Our official website is now live:https://dietcam--fir-ai-app-dev.us-central1.hosted.app/<p>We'll be documenting our entire journey and sharing it with all of you, including our tech stack decisions, the challenges we've faced, and more. We hope to connect with other like-minded individuals as we move forward.
