Kendraio Imagine challenge
We're excited to invite you to take part in our Kendraio Imagine challenge!

The Kendraio App is a highly configurable, highly customisable, open-source, no-code, bi-directional data browser and we’ve created the Kendraio Imagine challenge to encourage the minds of the future to develop innovative use cases for the Kendraio App.

Kendraio is a nonprofit project, focused on researching and building free open-source software: technology to empower individuals to reduce time spent on admin, increase their privacy online and establish agency over how their data is used. We want to make people's lives easier by enabling them to personalise their user experience and customise their visual interface for the services they use.

In these challenging times of climate crisis, escalating war, spiralling energy costs, financial chaos and predictions of annihilation by AI, it's hard to imagine a kind, safe and caring world where humans are thriving. But we must... imagine. We want to encourage everyone to take a look at Kendraio and identify how what we are creating will help with these big questions. The challenge

The challenge focuses on design thinking, interface design, and human-computer interactions. Our aim is to find innovative and exciting use cases for Kendraio App, our free open-source, no-code app builder. At the same time we want to expand our network of collaborators who can help us to build tech that empowers individuals and teams to reduce time spent on admin, increase their privacy and establish agency over how their data is used.

We want to encourage everyone to take a look at Kendraio and identify how what we are creating will answer these big questions. And we're offering prizes for the best ideas!
