Which problem does adiuto solve?

When many people want to help, the limiting factor is often not goodwill. It is reliable coordination.

An initiative needs to know what is required now, in what quantity, at which location, who has committed to bringing it, and what has actually arrived. Chats, spreadsheets, and general donation appeals quickly lose that shared state:

  • urgent requests disappear beneath newer messages;
  • outdated appeals continue to circulate;
  • several people may bring the same thing while another need remains uncovered;
  • a promise is mistaken for a completed delivery;
  • limited storage fills with goods that cannot be used at that moment.

How adiuto addresses it

adiuto starts with the initiative's current demand rather than with goods somebody wants to give away.

  1. The initiative publishes a task with a quantity, location, and—where relevant—a time.
  2. A supporter makes a binding commitment through a mission. That commitment reduces the open demand.
  3. A handover or shift check-in confirms that the help arrived and closes the loop.

The team on site remains responsible for the list. Supporters see the same current quantities, and goodwill becomes a contribution the initiative can plan around.

Already proven in practice

This is not an untested model. During the Berlin aid response in 2022, adiuto coordinated needs and confirmed handovers across several reception points at high volume. The work itself was done by volunteers and donors; adiuto provided the shared operational picture.
