Collective Win - A audio diary for pandemic & disaster management Collective Win Team

Social distancing is a treatment we’d need to gently taper off. Request early access to COWIN -

Protect yourself & your family

If you are in proximity of a C-19 suspect, whether or not you know the person, Cowin identifies & informs you of the risk quickly.

Plan your outdoor activities

Being informed earlier of C19 suspicions earlier allows us to better protect those around us, reducing the spread of COVID-19.

Protect our community

Cowin makes it faster to complete contact tracing on an immediate need, anonymously. When more people use it, we will be safer together.

Why will users trust Cowin?
Cowin makes it possible to implement a pandemic management system without establishing a national database that enables government or private surveillance.

The checks could happen privately on your own phone.

Cowin is an app that can be downloaded voluntarily and facilitates the contact tracing process. With user consent, it exchanges Bluetooth signals with nearby phones running the same app.

This allows you to be informed if you were in prolonged physical proximity with an infected person.

While this is an urgent public health emergency, we are committed to safeguarding privacy and ensuring control over personal data.

In other environments that require additional privacy & limited sharing of information, QR code encryption & delivery in a local environment enables safer transactions for all interested stakeholders including adherence to govt compliance needs.

How do we safeguard your data?
We store limited data
The only identity data we store is:


Your mobile number

A random anonymised User ID e.g. 9I8VPeQeWDofj39c8dPySoUXLqh2


When you sign up, a random User ID is generated, along with a unique QR code and associated with your mobile number. Both the mobile number and User ID are stored in a secure server, and never shown to the public.

As the novel coronavirus continues to spread globally, we have prepared an anonymous centralized pandemic management engine - Cowin; delivered through smartphone apps, digital communities & offline touchpoints.

The engine is designed to alert people that they had been in close proximity to a person who later tested positive for the respiratory disease.

We have to take a step-wise approach off social distancing and see how we can best balance it with returning to some small slice of normal life.

In time, we’ll learn how to achieve that balance. For now — and because there are just so many things about this virus that are still unknown — we’d imagine the response is - to stay put.

Coronavirus is not the flu. It's worse.

On March 11, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a pandemic, a new disease that has spread around the world. Many countries have seen reported cases of the virus rise within their borders.

“We will see more cases, and things will get worse,” Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, told members of the House Oversight Committee on March 11. “How much  worse … will depend on our ability to do two things: to contain the influx in people who are infected coming from the outside and the ability to contain and mitigate within our own country.”

The spread of the virus and slow rollout of testing mean reported case numbers are changing quickly.
