Real questions.
Original AI projects.

See how Junior students at Yale and UC Berkeley turned real questions into AI prototypes and project concepts.

Student project · 2026

Pet health & responsible AI

VetVision

Problem explored
How could pet owners better understand a concern when veterinary care is difficult to access?
Student output
A research-informed website prototype exploring photo-based AI guidance for pet health concerns. The team tested sample images and user scenarios, then refined responses that were initially too general.

Exploring AI’s usefulness—and its limits. This student prototype does not replace veterinary care.

Sustainability & school communities

Foundo

Problem explored
How could a school return lost belongings and give unused items a second life?
Student output
A school lost-and-found and reuse website with item listings, search, and a donation flow. The project connects a familiar everyday problem with a more sustainable school community.

Starting with an everyday need, then designing a practical way to help.

Education & collaborative learning

Nova Study

Problem explored
How could students find study partners with complementary strengths and make study time more focused?
Student output
A study-platform prototype combining skill-based group matching with AI-assisted explanations, quizzes, and flashcards. The concept encourages students to learn with—and from—one another.

Designing support around the learner, not simply generating an answer.

Community support & social innovation

People4People

Problem explored
How could people who need support connect more easily with people ready to help?
Student output
A platform concept and pitch bringing together local support, volunteering, and giving. The team explored community needs, comparable organizations, and a proposed model for connecting people and resources.

Turning a broad social challenge into a focused, local-first design concept.
