Inspiration
As we know, many people in our world need money and many people cannot earn money because they are disabled. If we express them in numbers, 6.4 billion people in the world are poor and 1 billion are disabled. Given that about 70% of this population owns a smartphone, these people can make money using only one hand and one eye. I think we are all human and no one wants humanity to go hungry. Yes, it can be questionable for you,but today technology make it possible for entrepreneurs for changing world to positive. We have passion for changing the world. Because we do not want to other youth lives like us. We live in Azerbaijan and in this country, there wide gap between private and public high schools. In details, I can say in Azerbaijan only private high school students have a chance to attending competitions. We are attending this competition, because we want to change our community. We want to be idol for young entrepreneurs in our country. For this purposes, we want to solve first problem of us which about poverty. In Azerbaijan, most of the youth can not go to schools due to economy of family. We will change it! We think that everybody must have chance for going to schools and attending competition. If you want to give chance to this young children in poorest zones, only support us. Let's change the world thanks to the PuQaBi application.
What it does
Most of the people think that why app developers pay amount to users. We make special system for using new world faculties for benefiting poor people. You know that in other app users watch ad and app developer gain money from this ads. But we want to make an app that make money for both of them. For this purposes, we make special app advertising system. In this system, user rotate wheel and get task from the wheel. Then, users submit the task to us, and we control with the help of the image. When we approve that user do task correctly, he or she gain 0.05 USD. He make first rotate without watching the ad, but he or she watching ad for every new rotate chance for graph. I want to mention this situation with store, imagine that there is Karim and he is disabled. He want to earn money, because of this purpose he find our app and starting doing our task. He everyday publishes about us in Facebook, Instagram and Youtube. With this method, he make 50.00 USD for two days. We also gain money for companies which want to advertise their app or product in our app. When companies want to advertise their product in our app, we give task about this companies. For example, user always share about our companies which give us money for making this task about them and advertise them. We think that this system is very excellent! Because we can gain money, also making life of poor people easier.
How we built it
In this section, I want to speaking about technical aspects of our application. Although we have not got good computers, we want to advance our mobile app. Firstly, I want to speaking about design of app. We use special UI/UX design and special animations for app. For example, we make splash screen with animation and this aspect make it astonishing for the users. Also, we use Firebase Database, Firebase Storage and Firebase Authentication. With this faculties, we can save user text, values, image and account info in our database. In our app additionally, has chat with workers from company. We make chat layout for this reason and it make our app complicated and comfortable for users. Also, there is special AI system which control payments system. Although it is a demo app for idea, I think that this app is ready for publishing in Play Store. We make this without sleeping. Going into deeper of this section, our app suitable for all of the android devices and it make app more comfortable for users. We want to show all of the our potential with our resources. Do not forget, we make everything from zero to hero.
Challenges we ran into
As we can see from the achievements we have mentioned, we have never been number one. Because we study in an ordinary poor village school. In competitions, students from strong universities and fee-paying schools are given more importance. So we have repeatedly failed to be number one due to the injustice of the judge. It should also be noted that our computers are very old and weak, so they turn off and we have to write the code or information that we wrote once. Despite these problems, we have always wanted to go to the United States and study there. That's why we were treated like naughty children in the village. But we never changed our minds. In 2019, while researching education in the United States on the Internet, we found a competition called Genius Olympiad and decided to join it. We went to the final round of that project and we were required to come to the United States. We needed $ 6,000 to go to the United States. When we told our parents, they said they could not afford it. No one can understand the tears flowing from our eyes at that moment :(. We thought and decided that somehow we should earn money and go to the United States. So we went to the city to look for investment and started working as a waiter in a cafe. During the day looking for investment and at night. We worked in a cafe. We had a month and we collected the money to go to the United States. Now, because we participated in this competition, our parents rebuke us not to sit behind an empty computer. We believe that you will appreciate our struggle with these difficulties.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Our team consist of two member who educate in poorest and rural schools, but we have many accomplishments about our skills. Because we always want to improve us and make us best for changing world and making world good place for us. Now, I want to speaking about our accomplishments:
3rd place in the Line follower category at the 1st Inter-School Robotics Olympiad. Participant in the 7th republican competition "Scientists of Tomorrow". 2nd place in the Line follower and Sumo categories at the 2nd Inter-School Robotics Olympiad. 3rd place in the 3rd acceleration competition of Barama Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center. Participant in the "Entrepreneurship Conference" organized by the Barama Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center. 7th place in the selection round of the 2nd World Robot Olympiad in Azerbaijan. 4th place in the 8th republican competition "Scientists of Tomorrow". 4th place at TechFest 2019. Participant in the selection round of the 3rd World Robot Olympiad in Azerbaijan. Finalist and 3rd place at the Genius Olympiad 2019 in the United States. Finalist in Hack the Northeast 2020. You see that although we live in poor country, we make everything greater and now we educate most of the young student about CS and entrepreneurship. We want to change their life, and write new history in our community!
What we learned
Thanks to this competition, we learned to achieve more in less time, to work together, to work as a team and to be friends. Because we had less time, we worked faster and more accurately, which taught us to focus on one thing and not focus on anything else.
What's next for PuQaBi
We have future plans for realizing this idea into real. Firstly,we will share it in the play store and App Store. We will create a website. As a result, the editors will understand that we are a serious company and will direct our application to more people.We will find festivals and present our project to as many people as we can at festivals. As we know, in order for users to earn money by watching ads, they have to perform random tasks on the wheel. There are certain tasks on the wheel to make people's application reach more people. For example; Share the application on your social media account and take a picture of the screen and send it to us, give the application 5 stars in the Play store, take a picture of the screen and send it to us, and finally send the application to 5 friends on whatsapp and take a picture and send it to us. Each of the 1,000 people from social media will bring 5 more people with them, which means that the people who download the application will bring 5 people with them to the station, so by this logic we will save more than 100 million people from poverty. All of this about marketing aspects of our idea, but I want to focus our force behind it. We want to realize this app, because most of the people in our town think that we crazy people and only dreaming about future. We wan to prove that we are not only dreamer, we are also maker and developers with this way we can educate more people. When we are successful in this app, we can open new club in our town and we make people from town believe that their sons or daughters can change the world. It is not dream, it is a product of hardworking.
