Real-time transit —public transport, reimagined
The problem KiSMATI (Smart Mobility and Transport Initiative) solves
SMATI addresses the critical need for reliable, efficient public transport in congested cities like Dar es Salaam. Unlike traditional systems, it uses AI to plan you commute and predict bus arrival and prevent overcrowding by providing real-time seat availability. By integrating stablecoin rewards, SMATI also tokenizes good traffic behavior and fare collection, offering cashless, transparent, and inclusive access—especially for unbanked populations. This combination of AI, and Web3 creates a smarter, more user-friendly public transport experience that directly improves on current fragmented, inefficient systems.
Challenges I ran into
Getting accurate live location data for buses consistently because Some drivers might be reluctant run the app. Also Convincing bus owners to partner and run their vehicles exclusively through KiSMATi may take time unless we create strong value propositions (steady revenue, brand visibility, better route management) and offer financial incentives (revenue share, leasing model).
