Problem
Every year, thousands of Indian students go abroad and struggle with:
1. Finding safe rooms & connections.
2. Managing survival tasks (food, SIM, groceries).
3. Cultural & language barriers.
Proposed Solution:
MasalaMix – A mobile app that acts as a survival kit , cultural guide , community hub for Indian students abroad , food recipes , shopping guide , introvert people conversation , language translation with mother tongue for easy access.
Key Features:
1. Stay & Social - Verified rooms, PGs, roommate finder, connect with Indians nearby.
2. Indian Events Hub - Updates on Diwali/Holi abroad, easy ticket booking, meetups.
3. Food & Groceries - Simple recipes, grocery translator (e.g., Kartoffel - Aloo), nearby stores list.
4. Shops & Essentials - Veg/Non-veg restaurant filters, shopping centres, SIM & transport guides.
5. Language & Culture Bridge - Translations , cultural tips for easier adjustment.
Existing Apps vs MasalaMix:
What They Cover:
Abroad Saathi - Community connections.
TC Global - University/student advice.
IndiansAbroad - Forums for Indians abroad.
Grosh - Multi-language grocery lists.
Homeis - Immigrant networking.
What They Miss:
Grocery translation with photos + Indian names.
Beginner Indian recipes.
Indian shops/restaurants finder.
Festival/event passes.
Roommate + SIM/shopping help.
Each app solves only one piece of the problem - not the whole student experience.
They also miss the language translation people mostly suffer with it.
How MasalaMix Fills the Gap:
* Combines survival, food, culture, language translation and community in one app.
* Student-first, Indian-focused, all-in-one solution.
Impact:
Saves students time, money, and effort.
Builds a supportive Indian community abroad.
Makes survival less stressful and more connected.
