metagaonFor a household
The block market is fifteen kilometres away. Not any more.
Order the way you already shop — on a slip of paper, or out loud. Talk to a doctor without losing a morning. Arrange a parent's meals from another city. One account, and a driver from your own panchayat at the door.
Buying something
- 01
Write the parchi as you always have
On whatever paper is to hand. Photograph it. Or hold the button and speak your list to Sevak in Hindi, Magahi or Bhojpuri. Or tick items off a screen, if that suits you better.
- 02
The shopkeeper reads it, not a machine
The photograph is the order. It goes to the shop exactly as you wrote it. The man who has served your village for nine years reads your handwriting better than any app would.
- 03
He weighs it and prices each line
As he packs. If he is out of something he marks it. If nobody has everything, the order splits across shops without you ordering twice.
- 04
A driver from your own panchayat brings it
Somebody you recognise. What left the shop is photographed against your list, so what arrives is what was packed.
- 05
Pay now, from the wallet, or on udhaar
Udhaar between a shop and a household already exists in every village. Metagaon writes it down — what was owed, since when, due by when. We do not lend it and we do not collect it.
A list on a torn slip. A shop that reads it. A driver you know.
These are the screens the app actually opens.
Your own list
Photograph it. The shopkeeper reads it.
A doctor, now
At your own block market, on a video call
A parent's meals
A household in their village cooks every day
And the things a shop cannot bring
A doctor for ₹50
Talk to a registered doctor at your block market on a video call. You pay the rest of their fee only if they say they need to look at the patient — and then a vehicle comes to the door.
Meals for somebody living alone
A household in the same village cooks a little extra, every day, and it reaches the door. Set it up once. The son or daughter who left pays for it from wherever they are.
Help from your own neighbours
Sixty-one kinds of small work — ironing, a tap, a form filled in, somebody to sit with your father for an afternoon — at a price the neighbour set, paid when the job is done.
A vehicle when it matters
Booked for tomorrow, shared on a route you take every morning, or needed right now. An urgent booking finds the nearest free driver and confirms immediately.
Your village's own page
Not a catchment area — your village. What reaches it, who delivers here, whether anybody here earns from the network yet, and what the village has asked for and not got.
Somebody to act for you
A son in Delhi can top up the wallet, arrange the meals and be told when one is missed — but only what you allowed, and you can withdraw it alone, on your own phone.
Install it, and register your village.
It works everywhere in India. Where we do not deliver yet, registering your village is what decides which block opens next — a signed-up household counts for more than a form, because it says somebody is ready to order the day a driver arrives.
