Solution description

Our team developed a chatbot to help people with misinformation and with complete uneducation on specific concepts.

Our solution consists of:

  1. analyzing users' interests
  2. providing a daily pill that will stimulate and arouse the users' attention
  3. providing pills that simplify complex concepts
  4. avoiding long, contorted and dispersive researches, as this chat bot already creates a path

Solution target group

Everyone from high school students and up can use Phyls, which hasn't got limitations reguarding sports, hobbies, passions, jobs, religion, ideoligy and so on.

Solution impact

The impact of our chat bot can be measured through the number of people that can imrpove their learning and trasversal skills. We can verify this via a periodic self-evaluation survey.
