TAKE5

What it does

TAKE5 is a mental wellness app tailored for teenagers facing the challenges of mental health. In just 5 minutes a day, users can engage in simple self-care activities that boost mindfulness, reduce stress, and improve overall mental well-being. In response to the growing mental health crisis, TAKE5 simplifies self-care, making it accessible for busy teens. We want to help teens battle mental illness by teaching them to care for themselves daily. By focusing on self-care, TAKE5 helps teens relax, detox, and feel better—one small step at a time. Initially, the user is asked to select from a general set of self-care activities, but through the use of the Gemini AI, the user can receive tailored recommendations for them! We pass through the user's previous self-care activities and how they were rated(if the user chooses to rate the activity) to Gemini, then the chatbot converses with them to find an activity they’d like to do. Finally, we use function calling to extract the activity name and description of the activity Gemini created.
