Project Overview
Project Description
Synapses is looking to develop a comprehensive roadmap for implementing Beckn’s open protocol in rural agriculture and energy. The objective of this project is to translate Beckn’s architecture and message flows into practical integration blueprints that combine UPI, Aadhaar/KYC, IoT, and AI/ML services, enabling seamless, pay-as-you-go digital offerings. This project will involve documenting how each complementary technology fits into an open-protocol ecosystem. The fellow will then map the agriculture ecosystem—covering human actors (farmers, FPOs, input suppliers, financiers, regulators) as well as resource data sources (soil sensors, tree growth records, groundwater tables, and other on-farm assets)—and identify 3–5 high-impact use cases where interoperable data exchanges can unlock new value. By the end of the fellowship, Synapses will have a prioritized use-case portfolio, detailed user-flow sketches, and a prototype plan ready for pilot deployment.
Impact
This project will use open digital infrastructure to equip Synapses with a clear, actionable roadmap to pilot and scale 3-5 high-impact use cases in rural agriculture and energy. The resulting integration blueprints and use-case portfolio will enable faster, more effective deployment of interoperable digital services -empowering rural households and driving sustainable development.
