| 36 | +## ⚙️ How it works |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +### The FlameGuard AI™ Process |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +1. **📸 Upload**: User uploads a photo of their property |
| 41 | +2. **👁️ AI Vision Analysis**: OpenAI Vision API identifies specific vulnerabilities (e.g., flammable roof, dry brush nearby) |
| 42 | +3. **🔍 Deep Research**: For each risk, we generate a **custom research plan** and run **iterative agentic-style calls** to Perplexity Sonar |
| 43 | +4. **📄 Report Generation**: Research is **aggregated, organized, and formatted** into an actionable HTML report — complete with citations, links, and visual guidance |
| 44 | +5. **📧 Delivery**: Detailed report sent via email with DIY solutions and professional recommendations |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +### 🔍 Deep Research with Perplexity Sonar API |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +The real innovation is how we use the **Perplexity Sonar API**: |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +- We treat it like a research assistant gathering the best available information |
| 51 | +- Each vulnerability triggers multiple queries covering severity, mitigation strategies, and localized insights |
| 52 | +- Results include regional fire codes, weather patterns, and local contractor availability |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +This kind of **structured, trustworthy, AI-powered research would not be possible without Perplexity**. |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +### Technical Stack |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +FlameGuard AI™ is powered by a modern GenAI stack and built to scale: |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +- **Frontend**: Lightweight HTML dashboard with user account control, photo upload, and report access |
| 61 | +- **Backend**: Python (Flask) with RESTful APIs |
| 62 | +- **Database**: PostgreSQL (local) with **Azure SQL-ready** schema |
| 63 | +- **AI Integration**: OpenAI Vision API + Perplexity Sonar API |
| 64 | +- **Cloud-ready**: Built for **Azure App Service** with Dockerized deployment |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +## 🏆 Accomplishments that we're proud of |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +- Successfully used **OpenAI Vision + Perplexity Sonar API** together in a meaningful, real-world workflow |
| 69 | +- Built a functioning **MCP server** that integrates seamlessly with Claude for desktop users |
| 70 | +- Created a product that is **genuinely useful for homeowners today** — not just a demo |
| 71 | +- Kept the experience simple, affordable, and scalable from the ground up |
| 72 | +- Made structured deep research feel accessible and trustworthy |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | +## 📚 What we learned |
| 75 | + |
| 76 | +- The **Perplexity Sonar API** is incredibly powerful when used agentically — not just for answers, but for reasoning. |
| 77 | +- Combining **multimodal AI (image + research)** opens up powerful decision-support tools. |
| 78 | +- Users want **actionable insights**, not just data — pairing research with guidance makes all the difference. |
| 79 | +- Trust and clarity are key: our design had to communicate complex information simply and helpfully. |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +## 🚀 What's next for FlameGuard AI™ - Prevention is Better Than Cure |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +We're just getting started. |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +### Next Steps: |
