That’s a brilliant idea you’ve got. Build it, and they will come.
Now you’re one step closer to the optimal design workflow.
Centru encourages user interaction within neighbourhoods. The city is split in geo-fenced neighbourhoods - virtual perimeter for a real-world geographic area. These are the places where all the communication happens.
People can access public conversation channels, share messages, files, images and use reactions. Moreover, they can stay up-to-date with community life through the community feeds.
People can make their own communication groups, public or private. They can invite selected neighbours in these private groups and drive conversations in channels with restricted access.
Any person can directly connect with his/her neighbours using direct messaging. This allows a simplified communication link in a controlled space - encouraging the enriching experience of traditional communities in a modern urban environment.
Centru uses notifications for keeping users connected to their local community for social interactions, local alerts and bulletins. People can personalise both the content feeds and the notification system, together with privacy settings.
Centru provides default services and allows further integrations of existing and bespoke tools. Services bundled in a single space allow better efficiency and simplified access for users.
Send reports and suggestions on local problems to their local authorities and public service operators.
Broadcast targeted alerts towards specific user groups on local problems.
Invite participation of citizens in city affairs and build a more inclusive decisiona making framework by using our e-democray capabilities.
Additional public services for your city can be integrated to the platform using our open API. Full developer resources and documentation is available through Centru’s developer portal.
The admin and super-admin roles have access to a single dashboard serving all city apps. Additional tools can be plugged-in to the existing dashboard.
Centru’s hosting platform, data, services and physical facilities are stable and secure, according to PCI DSS Level 1, SAS70 and FISMA standards.
