UCI Signal Integration

GovTech Context

Everyone needs nudges to get something done - whether it is a student prepping for a school examination or a district official assessing state of education in their district or a youngster looking for a job and there are about 20lakh+ students, 40lakh+ unemployed youth and roughly 2lakh government officers in Haryana alone. Imagine the scale of these users across the entire country and globally.

Product Explanation

UCI is an open source platform that enables exactly this - a configurable platform to enable personalised chatbot communication across channels such as WhatsApp, Telegram, SMS, email and more. With UCI you can plugin any federated set of users, any micro experience generating transformers and any distribution channel adapters.
