SunuPrix, the collective price check for Dakar

Field notes

SunuPrix proposes a three-step price-reporting loop: photograph a price, let neighbors confirm or flag it, then compare nearby entries before shopping. The homepage gives concrete examples involving 5 kg rice, a 6 kg butane cylinder, and one litre of vegetable oil, and says a submission should take about fifteen seconds. Dakar is the starting region, while Thiès and Bamako are identified as future destinations. The application itself is described as forthcoming.
