Problem Statement
Residents in Singapore often struggle to receive timely and relevant information about their neighbourhoods of interest, such as water or electrical supply disruptions, hawker centre closures, or fumigation schedules. Currently, residents rely on noticeboards in void decks, lift lobbies, word of mouth, or neighbourhood chat groups to stay informed. There are many touchpoints.
While some estates offer dedicated apps, their availability is limited and doesn’t address the needs of all residents. This fragmented approach to communication often results in missed updates, leading to inconvenience and disruption when important information about maintenance, service interruptions, or events are overlooked. The current state results in inefficient communication, causes inconveniences and may negatively impact residents’ daily lives.
How might we improve people's living experience in Singapore by reducing inconvenience as a result of missing important information in their neighbourhoods of interest?
Proposed Solution
Our solution addresses this issue by providing a centralised platform that delivers information about neighbourhoods of interest. Whether it's scheduled maintenance, service disruptions, or events, the platform ensures that residents across Singapore are well-informed and connected in a timely and accessible manner.
Key features of our platform include instant updates, personalized filters that allow users to receive notices specific to their block or region, and multiple language options for broader accessibility. The platform also offers scheduled reminders for less frequent events and the ability to adjust notification frequency, ensuring users are only alerted when necessary.
With the centralised platform, residents can receive timely and relevant information and reminders on-the-go for neighbourhoods of interest, thereby resolving inconveniences caused by missing important information, and hence improving their living experience in Singapore.
