Project Overview

Project Goal: CapturGO aims to build a decentralized location intelligence platform that transforms geospatial data from smartphones into real-time, privacy-first insights, rewarding users for contributing GPS and sensor data via a mobile app. It delivers hyperlocal intelligence for navigation, smart cities, and location-based advertising, creating a scalable DePIN-powered ecosystem.

Unique Value Proposition: CapturGO leverages Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) to empower users to monetize their daily movements while maintaining privacy, unlike centralized platforms like Google Maps or Waze. By integrating blockchain for transparent rewards and AI for mobility pattern analysis, it offers a user-owned, incentivized alternative that serves consumers, gig workers, and B2B clients like smart cities and advertisers. Its focus on real-time navigation and mass-market accessibility sets it apart in the TRON ecosystem, fostering innovation in mobility and urban analytics.

Project Demo: https://testflight.apple.com/join/kCzVwC2J (iOS TestFlight, closed beta launching mid-June 2025)

Expected Completion Date for 2025: Q3 2025 (public launch with 10,000 DAUs)

Current Progress (%): 50%

Technical & Governance Details

Project Test Instructions:

  1. Download the CapturGO app via TestFlight (iOS): https://testflight.apple.com/join/kCzVwC2J
  2. Create a user profile and connect a wallet address.
  3. Enable GPS and sensor data collection (foreground mode currently supported).
  4. Navigate using the app to contribute data and earn Captur Points.
  5. Provide feedback via the app or email admin@capturnetwork.xyz.

Technical Details:

  • Frontend: React Native with Expo for cross-platform mobile development.
  • Backend: Supabase for authentication, database, and storage.
  • Location Services: Mapbox SDK for geospatial functionality, custom tiling layers, and navigation.
  • State Management: React Context API with AsyncStorage for local persistence.
  • Infrastructure: EAS Build for CI/CD and deployment.
  • AI/ML: PyTorch with Trajectron++ for trajectory prediction, with plans for CapturAI to include mobility pattern analysis and POI affinity scoring.
  • Blockchain: Planned integration with TRON for $CAPT token rewards and on-chain data marketplace (testnet deployment in Q3 2025).

Smart Contract Links: Testnet available for BASE and SUI. Smart contracts for $CAPT token and data marketplace will be deployed on TRON testnet in Q3 2025.

How is the Project Governed?: Hybrid governance. Initially centralized for rapid development and user onboarding, transitioning to a DAO-governed model post-Token Generation Event (TGE) in late 2025, enabling community-driven decisions on data bounties and reward distribution.

Funding & Business Model

Funding Request for investors:

  • Amount: $5,000 (Pre-Seed round at $5M valuation)
  • Breakdown:
    • 60% ($250,000): Mobile app development (iOS/Android completion, UI/UX enhancements) and blockchain network integration
    • 20% ($150,000): B2B outreach and enterprise customer acquisition
    • 15% ($75,000): Brand building and marketing for user acquisition
    • 5% ($25,000): Operational costs and legal setup
  • Usage: Scale app to 10,000 DAUs by Q3 2025, establish B2B partnerships, and prepare for Seed round.

Revenue Model:

  • Location-Based Advertising (LBA): Monetizing aggregated heat maps, time-of-day exposure, and foot/vehicle density data for advertisers ($37B market).
  • B2B Data Platform: Selling travel routes, congestion patterns, and behavioral segmentation to smart cities, logistics, and market research firms via dashboards/APIs ($353B LBA market).
  • Projected Revenue: $9M/year with 500,000 users (1-3 years), scaling to $180M/year with 5M users (5-10 years), and potentially $1.35-2.7B/year with 25-50M users.

Interested in TRON Having a Stake?: Yes. TRON’s high-throughput blockchain and DePIN-friendly ecosystem align with CapturGO’s vision. A stake would strengthen integration with TRON’s infrastructure, enhance community trust, and accelerate $CAPT token adoption.

Preferred Collaboration Method: Strategic partnership with TRON DAO, including technical support for blockchain integration, co-marketing to TRON’s community, and potential co-investment in the Pre-Seed round or grant. We’d value TRON’s expertise in scaling DePIN projects and connecting with ecosystem partners.

Ecosystem Impact

Early Traction:

  • HERE Technologies: In discussions to become a data partner for location-based services.
  • CV Labs Accelerator Program x Cardano: Equity-free program starting May 19, 2025, for ecosystem support and networking.
  • Draper University x Hero Training: Sponsored program starting May 25, 2025 Pre-Accelerator program in Silicone Valley.

Time on TRON: Not yet launched on TRON. Planning $CAPT token and data marketplace integration on TRON testnet in Q3 2025.

Project Milestones

Project Milestones:

  • Q2 2025:
    • Launch closed beta (mid-June) for 100 early contributors.
    • Finalize MVP with foreground GPS data collection and Captur Points system.
    • Begin blockchain integration on TRON testnet.
  • Q3 2025:
    • Public launch of CapturGO v1 with 10,000 DAUs.
    • First data monetization pilot with B2B clients.
    • Deploy $CAPT token testnet and on-chain infrastructure.
  • Q4 2025:
    • Token Generation Event (TGE) with sustainable revenue.
    • Expand to 50,000 DAUs and initiate Seed round fundraising.

Project in 5 Years: CapturGO aims to be the leading decentralized navigation platform, akin to “the new Waze,” with 25-50M users globally, generating $1.35-2.7B/year in revenue. It will power autonomous vehicle, AI in transportation & logistic, smart cities, and advertising with hyperlocal insights, while expanding into new DePIN use cases like geo-tagging and object-tagging for AI training, all built on TRON’s scalable blockchain infrastructure.

gm team CapturGo, welcome to TBL, good to see Depin in here. all the best. will get to review and share feedback soon. cheer as today is bitcoin pizza day

gm @Gordian ! Thx for having us here, excited to see what you guys think. We see a huge opportunity for DePIN sector to grow in Tron’s ecosystem.

Welcome to TBL, I see the total valuation of your funding request is at $5M, that’s quite a handful amount.

Hello and welcome to TBL.
Do you mind to elaborate a bit more about the Cardano program and how it works? Thanks

Hey, that’s the valuation of the company. It’s relatively small and normal for early stage startup and for DePIN in Pre-Seed Stage as well. Request is $500k at.5M valuation. But this is not necessary for blockchain just an overview information. For example Chains can give grant or provide technical supports instead of investing for equity to the project.

Hey, Thank you! The program is was created by CV Labs (VC) in partnership with Cardano foundation where CF gives funds to CV Labs to find early stage startup to learn how to operate a startup from business operation to fundraising and integrate some Cardano functionalities. As a DePIN project that is supporting multi/cross chain, we saw a great opportunity from the program due to CV Labs popular accelerator program but doesn’t compromise us to be with only Cardano. We are still exploring which chain we want to TGE and be native on in which Tron is our top option. Thank you

Hello, and thank you! We are a Thai (Thailand) DePIN Project. You can search our names on Linkedin. I (Kantawat) have over 4 years of experience leading the DePIN community and Distribution shop in Thailand and South East Asia, and my Co-founder, the technical wizard has an degree in AI & Robotic engineering with experience working Fintech VC, Agoda, and more Web 3 experiences.

You clearly talked about grants here, so let’s say TRON grants $25k–50k, how exactly would that be used in this instance?
Gasless transactions is really a thing now, would subsidizing gas fees for early users be part of the usage of such grant?

Hey, It would typically be milestone based. Some of the thing on top of my head would be supporting the chain for token claim/withdrawal + LP creation once TGE, definitely subsizing gas fees for early contributors, open-source DePIN architecture, small reward pool, and integration of TRON DID and other smart contracts.
