Navingating Livelihoods through Accessible AI
A voice-first system that helps women discover and act on real income opportunities.
BUILT IN PUBLIC. DESIGNED FOR SCALE. ACCESSIBLE ON THE PHONE SHE ALREADY HAS.
Open resources, datasets, and ecosystem knowledge powering an AI livelihood assistant for women.
NariBot helps women discover schemes, jobs, and enterprise opportunities through accessible AI guidance.
THE CHALLENGE
The last mile reality.
India's Self-Help Group network is the largest women's grassroots economic network in the world. Yet millions of women still face barriers to information, opportunity discovery, livelihood guidance, and scheme navigation.
Most digital tools assume smartphones, internet connectivity, and high digital literacy. This is not a lack of intent. It is a lack of accessible guidance.
NariBot starts from a different premise:
The technology must adapt to the device she already has.
THE PLATFORM
Plugging in The Gap.
NariBot functions as a livelihood navigation assistant, helping women discover opportunities, understand income pathways, and access support in short, clear responses suited for real-world use.
For the rural women of Bharat, NariBot enables her with three pathways / ways to earn - powered by one intelligence layer.
1. Start Something of Your Own
(schemes + micro enterprise)
2. Find Local Jobs
(real, salaried, nearby)
