A design concept for Viksit Bharat @2047

Designed for Viksit Bharat @2047

हर सरकारी सेवा का एक द्वार।

Saathi is a citizen app that starts from your life, not from a department. Ask in your own language — it finds what you're entitled to, fills in the forms and keeps the receipts.

Today, a citizen has to find the right app among hundreds.

Different logins, different languages, different forms — and a fake portal one search result away.

Saathi is one door.

Every service, organised around what's happening in your life: a birth, a harvest, a first job, a pension.

India already runs the largest digital public infrastructure in the world.

Yet a citizen still has to know which app, which portal and which form. Saathi is the front door those rails were waiting for — built on them, not beside them.

How Saathi would connect

Conceptual integrations. Saathi is not affiliated with these platforms.

  • AadhaarProves it's you
  • DigiLockerBrings verified documents
  • UPIPays fees and dues
  • BhashiniSpeaks your language
  • API SetuTalks to departments
  • CPGRAMSEscalates complaints

Saathi AI is an assistant that acts — but only after it shows you the plan and you say yes.

1

Ask the way you'd ask a person

In your own language, by voice or by typing. No department names, no form numbers.

2

See the plan before anything happens

Saathi lays out every step, which official service it will use, and why.

3

Nothing leaves your phone without your yes

You see exactly what is shared, with whom, and for how long. Change it or cancel it.

4

Proof, every time

Every action ends with a reference number, a named officer and a date — and anything else you're owed.

A person is always close

    Nari

    Women

    Maternity benefits, a daughter's savings and her certificate — as one checklist.

Verify on the official portal

Sample

People told us they double-check every government website. Saathi is designed so they can.

  • Consent before data moves

    Every share names who asks, what they get, why, and until when — shaped by the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.

  • A record of every access

    See which officer opened your documents, when, and for what purpose. Revoke access with one switch.

  • Proof you can verify

    Every action ends with a reference you can check on the official portal.

  • No ads. No selling data. No dark patterns.

    A public service should never compete for your attention.

Designed to WCAG 2.1 AA, GIGW 3.0 and UX4G guidelines.

Saathi for Departments

Every service in the app has a desk on the other side. Fifteen department consoles review applications, check e-KYC with a stated purpose, issue signed records and run challans, exams and benefit transfers — and every decision reaches the citizen in their language.
