Impact Solutions Lab

AI for Social Impact

Leveraging AI, surveys, and drone mapping, we create a comprehensive Community Map to help NGOs and agencies implement data-driven interventions, empowering underserved communities across India.

Mission

Our mission is to build a comprehensive Community Map of low-income communities across India by leveraging AI, extensive surveys, and drone mapping. This map will serve as a crucial tool for NGOs and government agencies to implement data-driven interventions that drive impactful change.

Why AI for Social Impact?

Data-Driven Interventions

Our project utilizes generative AI tools to inform and guide impactful interventions, ensuring that actions are precise and effective.

Driving Social Impact with AI

Social impact is at the core of everything we do at ISL. AI is now a pivotal tool for development, and this project harnesses its potential to drive meaningful change in underserved urban communities.

Empowering NGOs and Agencies

We enable NGOs and government agencies to implement data-driven interventions, increasing their effectiveness and reach within disadvantaged communities.

Bridging the Innovation Gap

Technological advancement defines our era, yet low-income communities are often the last to benefit from these innovations. We aim to change that.

Core Focus of the Project

Our core focus is building a comprehensive community map of urban slum communities in India. This community map will contain current and relevant data about demographics, challenges, attitudes and mindsets.

How do we build the Community Map?

We bring together field data and AI to map real community needs and opportunities.

Community Data
Collection

Our volunteers collect detailed information from urban slum communities across India from household surveys to street-level mapping. This ground truth is the foundation of everything we do.

AI Enhanced
Data Processing

The collected data flows into our Small Language Model (SLM) within the Data Hub.The SLM detects patterns, interprets local contexts, and structures insights so they’re ready for action.

Customized
Insights

Our AI Agent delivers tailored reports and recommendations for NGOs, government agencies, and researchers — ensuring each partner gets the information they need to design targeted solutions.

Data Hub Explained

The Data Hub uses AI to transform raw community data into insights that shape the Community Map.

Who Do We Work With?

Volunteers

We welcome committed volunteers to join our data collection teams. You will work directly in communities building trust, conducting surveys, and gathering the stories and data that fuel the Data Hub’s insights.

NGOs

We collaborate with NGOs who connect us to key community points of contact, introduce us to local stakeholders, help coordinate logistics, and ensure our work reflects community needs. In return, NGOs gain access to Data Hub insights to design targeted, data-driven interventions.
