Domus: A Personalized Tool to Improve Access to and Correct Use of Housing Subsidies
About
Domus > Subsidy Project
The Domus ecosystem is a technological solution designed to address the lack of information and the misuse of social benefits by equipping households with personalized tools to effectively navigate housing subsidies.
Government assistance programs intend to help disadvantaged households often suffer from low take-up rates due to a lack of awareness among eligible recipients. The complexity of benefit systems, with hundreds of programs and varying eligible recipients. The subsidies system is complex because there are many programs with different eligibility requirements. This complexity creates a challenge for the potencial beneficiares.
This project aims to offer a modular platform Domus which provides information about different program opportunities, personalized feedback, and new opportunities to utilize benefits effectively.
Existing platforms developed by government agencies and NGOs lack basic functionalities, leading to inefficient information dissemination and application processes.
The Domus module has already been developed and is currently being used by initial users. The next step is to launch a pilot with TocToc, a Chilean housing marketplace with over X million users.
