βš™οΈ How it works

The FlameGuard AIβ„’ Process

  1. πŸ“Έ Upload: User uploads a photo of their property
  2. πŸ‘οΈ AI Vision Analysis: OpenAI Vision API identifies specific vulnerabilities (e.g., flammable roof, dry brush nearby)
  3. πŸ” Deep Research: For each risk, we generate a custom research plan and run iterative agentic-style calls to Perplexity Sonar
  4. πŸ“„ Report Generation: Research is aggregated, organized, and formatted into an actionable HTML report β€” complete with citations, links, and visual guidance
  5. πŸ“§ Delivery: Detailed report sent via email with DIY solutions and professional recommendations

πŸ” Deep Research with Perplexity Sonar API

The real innovation is how we use the Perplexity Sonar API:
  • We treat it like a research assistant gathering the best available information
  • Each vulnerability triggers multiple queries covering severity, mitigation strategies, and localized insights
  • Results include regional fire codes, weather patterns, and local contractor availability
This kind of structured, trustworthy, AI-powered research would not be possible without Perplexity.

Technical Stack

FlameGuard AIβ„’ is powered by a modern GenAI stack and built to scale:
  • Frontend: Lightweight HTML dashboard with user account control, photo upload, and report access
  • Backend: Python (Flask) with RESTful APIs
  • Database: PostgreSQL (local) with Azure SQL-ready schema
  • AI Integration: OpenAI Vision API + Perplexity Sonar API
  • Cloud-ready: Built for Azure App Service with Dockerized deployment

πŸ† Accomplishments that we’re proud of

  • Successfully used OpenAI Vision + Perplexity Sonar API together in a meaningful, real-world workflow
  • Built a functioning MCP server that integrates seamlessly with Claude for desktop users
  • Created a product that is genuinely useful for homeowners today β€” not just a demo
  • Kept the experience simple, affordable, and scalable from the ground up
  • Made structured deep research feel accessible and trustworthy

πŸ“š What we learned

  • The Perplexity Sonar API is incredibly powerful when used agentically β€” not just for answers, but for reasoning.
  • Combining multimodal AI (image + research) opens up powerful decision-support tools.
  • Users want actionable insights, not just data β€” pairing research with guidance makes all the difference.
  • Trust and clarity are key: our design had to communicate complex information simply and helpfully.
