Households are responsible for the largest portion of all food waste. In the US, an average person wastes 238 pounds of food per year (21 percent of the food they buy), costing them $1,800 per year. Major contributors to household food waste include: food spoilage, over-preparing, date label confusion, overbuying, and poor planning.

reFresh reduces food waste by helping home cooks track food spoilage and plan meals. Its key differentiators include a fun gamified user experience and auto food input. The app automatically logs the food you put in and take out of the fridge using integrated RFID tagging technology in a smart fridge interface.
