TOMI celebrates 7 years in Rio de Janeiro!

TOMI celebrates its 7th anniversary in Rio de Janeiro, Brasil!

These seven years were full of good memories and experiences, always offering citizens the best information and the entire cultural agenda of the city!

In these 7 years, there have been more than 14 million user actions in the TOMI Rio de Janeiro network, in which the Agenda Module was the most used. During these 7 years, more than 1.2 million photos and gifs were taken and sent by email on TOMIs!

Rio de Janeiro has 26 TOMIs installed in the neighbourhoods of Copacabana, Leme, Leblon, Centro, São Conrado, Barra da Tijuca, and Recreio dos Bandeirantes.

TOMI has provided useful information through its four main modules: in the News module: people were able to get the latest news that was happening in the city; the Events module kept them informed of all the cultural events that were taking place; Search module helped to find multiple points of interest, where users can find places to eat, to sleep, to shop, and what to visit; Transports Module helped citizens to search for different transport options, always providing the distance, costs involved, and schedules. TOMI has also a City Marketing Module that allowed users to take photos and GIFs, with different customized frames.

During the Pandemic TOMI implemented several useful features to help the city to manage the information for citizens, to be aware of the official advice, and preventive health measures in place. Some examples of these features are: the TOMI Remote Control, which allowed people to interact with the TOMI via their smartphones, pedestrian counting, and automatic detection of people that were not wearing a mask, triggering an automatic alert asking them to put the mask on.

After the peak of the Covid-19, TOMI contributed to relaunch the economy with TOMI MY BUSINESS, a platform that allows all merchants to enter and manage their business on TOMI, free of charge.

TOMI wants to keep connecting cities with their citizens and tourists, providing an excellent platform for everyone to stay informed and to have smart services in the right place, at the right time.

Thank you all for your constant support during these 7 years! We meet in Rio!
