Abstract

Heritage Link is an app that supports users' desire to have a platform for discussing, uploading, and learning more about ancient heritages[1]. Designed and built entirely using Flutter for UI development and Firebase for database management, Heritage Link offers a socially impactful solution to those interested in heritages [2][3]. As ancient heritages are not mainstream and are considered niche communities, this app will allow those who were hesitant on learning more about their local heritages and other heritages throughout the entire world by utilizing the AI scan feature on Heritage Link. Using the OpenAI API allows the Heritage Link to use artificial intelligence to allow all users to upload images of any ancient heritage near them or found online so they can meaningful responses filled with meanginful information [4]. As a method to give back to the ancient heritage community, there is a dedicated page for those interested to donate heritages preservation organizations.
