Overview
Community intelligence, turned into immediate public value
Há Combustível was launched in April 2026 during a national fuel shortage to help people quickly understand which stations had fuel, which had queues, and which were empty.
Instead of requiring a dedicated app, the platform was designed to work directly in the browser, making it fast to access, easy to share, and realistic for people operating with limited time, bandwidth, or device constraints.
The project demonstrates the type of low-cost, high-utility civic technology that Nowledge wants to build: simple enough to be used immediately, but robust enough to generate collective intelligence in moments of pressure.
