AskAll

Knowledge, just an SMS away

What it does

AskAll is an innovative platform that empowers African individuals by providing instant access to Gemini through simple SMS text messaging. Designed to bridge the digital divide, AskAll caters to users with limited internet connectivity or rely on basic feature phones, which are prevalent across the continent. With AskAll, users can send questions via SMS and receive immediate, informative responses powered by Gemini.

AskAll uses the Gemini API to process SMS queries and provide responses efficiently. When a user sends an SMS with a query, AskAll's system processes the message and forwards it to the Gemini API. The API interprets the query, generates a relevant and accurate response, and sends it back to AskAll. Finally, AskAll delivers the response directly to the user's phone via SMS, ensuring the information is accessible even without an internet connection. The SMS conversations are also serialized and stored using Firebase, allowing AskAll to maintain context and deliver personalized responses, mirroring the experience of interacting with Gemini directly.

AskAll aims to transform how Africans access knowledge, providing critical support in various areas such as education, healthcare, agriculture, and beyond. By leveraging the power of Gemini through the simplicity and ubiquity of SMS, AskAll brings valuable insights and information to those who need it most, empowering communities and fostering development across the continent.
