YuntA

The university services platform is designed to address the daily needs and challenges of UNMSM students. Many students find themselves overloaded with classes and assignments, wasting valuable time on logistical tasks such as printing, paperwork, or obtaining materials. Current alternatives, such as informal WhatsApp or Facebook groups, are often disorganized and inefficient, generating frustration and uncertainty.
Our solution is a centralized and intuitive platform that connects "requesters" (students who need help) with "providers" (students willing to offer services) within the university campus. This structured system seeks to ensure a superior experience to informal alternatives.
For Requesters:
• Time savings: They can delegate small but important tasks, freeing up time to focus on their studies.
• Fast and affordable solutions: Access to services such as food, study materials, photocopying, transportation, or paperwork, conveniently and within their budget.
• Trust and security: They interact with other verified students, generating peace of mind knowing that their needs will be met with quality and reliability. The platform implements a rating system and institutional email verification to generate this trust.
For Providers:
• Flexible income generation: It offers the opportunity to earn additional money by leveraging their skills and free time between classes, adapting to their academic schedule.
• Financial independence: Allows students to actively seek income-generating opportunities and build a network of contacts at the university.
• Transparent monetization model: To operate on the platform, providers need to load a credit balance. The platform only applies a single percentage commission on the value of the service once it has been completed and the provider has received direct payment from the client. This means that "You Only Pay a Percentage When You Win." Viewing the details of a request is free.
Differentiating Features and Advantages:
• University Niche Focus: The platform is specifically designed for the UNMSM ecosystem, understanding its needs and internal dynamics. This allows for the customization of services by faculty.
• Trust System: In addition to institutional email verification, it features a detailed profile and grading system, and a progressive penalty system to ensure the professionalism and honesty of all users.
• Advanced Technology: The mobile app, developed with React Native, facilitates the creation and management of requests. It incorporates Artificial Intelligence to assist in writing requests (including voice input for greater convenience), analyze demand patterns, and moderate content to prevent abuse. It also integrates real-time communication through chat and push notifications.
• Scalable Model: The design allows for the easy incorporation of new service categories and has the capacity to expand to other universities in the future.
The platform seeks to establish itself as an indispensable tool that fosters collaboration and entrepreneurship within the university community, optimizing time and opportunities for all students.
