Wifi Dabba, Inc. is a hardware and telecommunications startup that builds low-cost, scalable, and distributed Wi-Fi infrastructure. The company uses Free Space Optics (FSO), specifically a grid of lasers, to provide high-speed internet to cities and towns, aiming to connect the next billion users online.
Wifi Dabba was founded by a team with a decade of experience in the mobile application industry. The founders started the venture after identifying that poor connectivity and high costs were the primary reasons for user churn in mobile services.
Wifi Dabba addresses the problem of expensive and unreliable internet access for the common citizen. By utilizing a grid of lasers and a 'sachetized' pricing model, the company makes high-speed data affordable for both humans and machines.
Wifi Dabba leverages crypto and blockchain to decentralize the ownership of internet infrastructure. Their goal is to create a distributed network where the ownership of the hardware is shared, serving as the connectivity layer for the Web3 ecosystem.
Wifi Dabba utilizes a 'sachetization' model for internet access, allowing users to purchase as little as 1 gigabyte of data at a time. This pricing strategy is designed to make connectivity affordable for users who cannot commit to expensive monthly contracts.
The core technology used by Wifi Dabba is Free Space Optics (FSO). This involves deploying a grid of lasers over urban environments to transmit data at high speeds without the need for traditional physical cabling.
