About

A small team, working on slow problems.

A technology non-profit in Dhaka, building with the people who live with these problems every day.

Why we exist

The data already exists. Satellites photograph the coast every few days, and almost none of it reaches the farmer, the teacher or the ward engineer in a shape they can use this week.

Someone has to be asking

Every project started with a person and a problem, not a technology looking for a use.

The data has to exist already

If it needs a sensor network nobody will fund, it stays an idea.

It has to run on a cheap phone

That is what our users have.

It has to be in the right language

Bangla first, not translated at the end.

The team

The people building it.
