Agentic Allies

Project Concept

Overview

Our project is a WhatsApp AI agent that helps Brazilians access social programs and legal aid.

Users simply describe their situation using voice or text, allowing people with low literacy to communicate easily with the system.

The AI analyzes the request and responds in clear Portuguese, explaining what rights or support the person may qualify for.

This may include support through:

  • social programs such as Bolsa Família
  • free legal assistance

All communication is provided in simple and accessible Portuguese.


Goal

The goal is to build an agentic AI ally that empowers people in vulnerable situations to understand and access their rights in a simple and accessible way.


How the AI Works

Technically, the AI compares the user’s situation with relevant laws and social program requirements.

Based on this analysis, it generates simple and practical guidance for the user.

The AI can:

  • generate eligibility checklists
  • explain rights and benefits
  • guide users on where to seek help
  • inform which documents are required
  • read and explain documents
  • answer questions
  • send relevant information to the user

User Experience

The agent works like a friend who is always ready to help.

It guides the user step by step until they understand their rights, what benefits they may qualify for, and what actions they should take next.
