Technology, artificial intelligence, and accessibility to help people who are blind or have low vision identify products, read text, and understand the world around them.
I helped build the product from the ground up — camera-based label reading, text scanning, and an AI that answers questions about what's in front of you. Today I work as a technology consultant for Alia Inclui, guiding the development and innovation team. Brands like Nestlé and Unilever support the initiative.
At its official launch, in April 2023, Alia Inclui won the Batalha de Startups (Startup Battle) at Gramado Summit — a competition run with the Ventiur accelerator —, securing R$200,000 in investment (with the potential to reach R$1 million through co-investment) and the Sebrae Like a Boss recognition.
In 2025, Alia Inclui was featured on MasterChef Brasil as a technology and innovation case — showing how the app helps people who are blind or have low vision cook: recognizing ingredients, reading packaging and nutrition information, and gaining more independence at the stove and countertop.
That same year, the technology gained national visibility as the theme of an Angel Challenge on BBB (Big Brother Brasil), in partnership with Nestlé. To promote inclusion, contestants had to use the app to scan and identify products on shelves — demonstrating, in practice, how the tool gives people who are blind or have low vision more independence in everyday life.
