Inspiration. The current suffering of the whole industry is huge. The major problem consists in considering travel unsafe and increasingly complicated, moreover for passengers who need to fly a lot like Corporate travelers used to. We took it from there and we decided to tackle the 1st and 2nd theme of the competition, since Health is key to a confidence boost and a fuller recovery, and by strengthening the post-Covid health approach and measures we also improve the customers travel experience.

What it does. We built an App for the collection of personal health and travel data in exchange of accolades and benefits. We believe that by offering an immediate return we may obtain a more willing and meaningful support from Corporate travelers, the market segment that probably will be the most affected presently and in the years to come. The App enables contact tracing using Apple and Google API, respecting privacy to the full extent of the law. By loading all different sequence of events in our back-end platform, which runs on Ledger, we certify passenger’s health events, enabling pre-flight scrutiny and obtaining "Fit for Flight" status, the green light that may speed up all the check-in, security and passport controls activities on departure, and avoiding quarantine restriction upon arrival.

From the App passengers may: • Check their risk level and send alerts to local health authorities in case of symptoms • Check updated information about pandemic spread on a local and global level • Verify Immigration requirements at destination • Download a QR code and receive a physical card, too, if useful to benefit of the accolades Benefits for the other stakeholders: The data will be shared by the different stakeholders (Airlines, Airports, Government Agencies, Doctors, Health Authorities, Hotels, …), who will have different level of security access. Such capture of forward data will be very useful to target offering and adapt to the increase in demand as soon as it is manifesting. All stakeholders will receive aggregated data and take useful decisions accordingly: arrival airports to verify health status of arrival passengers, arrival hotels to decrease pre-sanitary activities.

How I built it. I used www.justinmind.com for the prototype.

Challenges I ran into. The absence of a proper UI developer in the team made us suffer a lot more!

Accomplishments that I'm proud of. I made a very good prototype, a nice presentation and most important, our App can truly benefit the industry. Our Mentor Kevin had the ability to make us focus on the things that mattered the most to obtain the best possible outcome

What I learned. Hackatons are not a piece of cake, but they are fun!

What's next for HEALTRAX. We will embed the App in our current tracking device offering, thus making our value proposition even more global and effective, covering the whole Corporate Traveler segment. We will look for partnerships with airlines and CTM, making our PaaS easier to adopt through our APIs. We look forward receiving some feedback from all of you to start testing
