The problem statement
Over 85% of Indian FMCG retail flows through 12+ million unorganized Kirana stores. Paper-based, unrecorded transactions leave brands blind to real-time stock-outs, competitor shifts, and local price elasticity.
Required PoC
A low-friction, zero-hardware data capture prototype — OCR on WhatsApp invoice photos, voice-based inventory logging, or UPI transaction-velocity modeling — that turns retail chaos into predictive demand dashboards.
Rules
Rules will be announced soon.
