"Fellow Founders/Builder/Investors,
Are you tired of doom-scrolling and ready to build something that truly matters? I was too, until a reel about a local tree-mapping project in Mangalore sparked an idea: why not do this for the entire country?
🤯 Imagine an app where every citizen becomes a citizen scientist, contributing to a national tree map. We're talking:
- Simple Data Capture: Users snap photos of trees and leaves, geotag locations, and input basic info (species, age, etc.).
- Gamified Engagement: Think "Kingdom of Trees," leaderboards, badges, and even the chance to have a local grove named after them.
- Real-World Impact: We'll generate invaluable data for environmental monitoring, urban planning, and conservation.
Why This Matters:
Our cities are suffocating. We need data-driven solutions to protect our green spaces. This project will:
-
Provide critical insights into our urban forests.
-
Empower communities to become active stewards of their environment.
-
Create a powerful tool for research and policy-making.

The Startup Angle:
This isn't just a feel-good project; it's a scalable startup with a sustainable revenue model:
- Corporate Sponsorships: Think "naming rights" for green spaces, just like
stadiums. Businesses can showcase their commitment to sustainability
while supporting our mission.
- Data Partnerships: Selling anonymized data to research institutions, environmental organizations, and government agencies.
The Ask:
I'm looking for passionate investors, founders, developers, designers, and marketers
to join me in bringing this vision to life. Specifically, I need help
with:
- App Development: Building a user-friendly and robust platform.
- Gamification Design: Creating engaging and motivating user experiences.
- Marketing & Community Building: Spreading the word and building a strong user base.
