Glass metaphor makes water inequality visceral, but static data viz without interaction depth.

It visualizes access to safely managed drinking water using a single object: a glass.
Users select a country and the glass fills or doesnt, based on the percentage of people with access to safe drinking water.
Instead of charts or maps, the idea was to translate global inequality into a simple physical experience.

Curious to hear feedback from the community.
Focused on one job: set intake goals, fire timed reminders, and track quick pours — all on-device with a tiny 3.2 MB binary and a no-data-collection claim. It looks clean and feels lightweight, but there’s nothing here that meaningfully differentiates it from the dozen similar single-purpose water apps on every platform.
It turns screen time into a hydration gate: apps stay locked until the phone detects a face, a container, and a drinking gesture for about 15 seconds. Doing all inference on-device and using Apple's Screen Time APIs with no accounts or uploads is the genuinely smart part — it's an unusual, privacy-minded technical prank that actually solves the stated problem. Reliability in varied lighting/angles and easy workarounds will decide whether it's clever or just cute, but the engineering is impressive.
Visualizes the 'post-money' dilution trap better than any static YC guide.
Yet another DI library when Awilix and Inversify already exist.
Yet another event aggregator with no automated data ingestion.
Clean BGP lookup UI, but Hurricane Electric and BGPlay already do this.
