About the Solution
Signpost is an International Rescue Committee (IRC) program that provides critical information to displaced people impacted by conflict, disasters, poverty, and violence. Their AI-powered humanitarian infrastructure offers lifesaving access to information and resources through frontline help centers, digital channels, and social media.
The Signpost platform allows IRC and local partner NGOs to create AI agents to deliver support at scale while removing language and geographic barriers. With pilots of this AI solution underway, IRC aims to expand its platform to selected low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
Imagine you had a lifeline in your pocket, a tool that speaks in your language and guides you to the help that you will need. That's what we're building with SignpostAI. It’s not just technology. It's hope for millions of people. At its core, we offer a way to find shelter, to find food and medical care when everything else is chaos.
