Ziran / Green FilterShould I buy this?

Working post-thesis product

A shopping decision system that turns a person's values and constraints into a visible recommendation instead of hiding the reasoning inside a generic assistant.

01 / Human intent

Human intent

Make purchases that fit the person's own priorities, including sustainability, health, price and confidence in the available evidence.

02 / System / agent action

System / agent action

Extract a structured product object, fill missing context, and return a verdict with supporting facts, alternatives and sources across browser, web and mobile surfaces.

03 / Hard boundary

Hard boundary

The AI does not get to silently manufacture certainty. Ziran distinguishes verified, estimated, brand-reported, AI-inferred and unknown information, and the post-thesis product still stops at decision support rather than autonomous purchase execution.

Evidence in the system

Evidence in the system

  • The current product asks “Should I buy this?” and returns a verdict, facts, alternatives and sources.
  • Product structure comes before model inference: JSON-LD, Open Graph, DOM and site adapters are used before AI fills gaps.
  • The project preserves a clear provenance boundary between the filed MA thesis, evaluated prototypes and later product work.
