I'm 17 and built an Integrated AI Writing Assistant and Environment2025 · chromewebstore.google.com · ▲12Hey HN! We’re a group of high school students who built Factful, a Chrome extension that helps with research, fact-checking, and writing—all inline.

i wanted to change the habit of reaching for my phone in the morning and doomscrolling away an hour so i built an app to help me. now i have to literally touch grass before accessing my most distracting apps the app is built in swiftui, uses the screen time apis provided by apple and google vision to recognise grass or not i'd love to get your thoughts on the concept.
