# Overview
[OpenG2P](https://openg2p.org) is an open-source social benefits registry and delivery platform that enables digital cash transfer from Government to Person. The platform offers interoperable components for digitizing and automating service delivery and enables inclusive and efficient delivery of benefits.
OpenG2P was set up with the vision to accelerate social protection, financial inclusion, and digital development. These are the guiding principles behind the OpenG2P vision.
OpenG2P is a Digital Public Good ([DPG](https://digitalpublicgoods.net/registry/openg2p.html)) recognized by the DPGA and has received contributions and support from multiple organisations and implementers. The project, co-founded by the Government of Sierra Leone and UNDP and supported by [Mifos](https://mifos.org) in the early stages, is now housed in[ IIIT Bangalore](https://www.iiitb.ac.in/), a not-for-profit university in India.
The platform offers people-facing processes such as onboarding into schemes, identity verification, and cash transfers to their bank accounts. It also incorporates government department-facing features such as the creation of registries and beneficiary lists, eligibility checks, scheme definition, payment disbursement and reconciliation.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.openg2p.org/1.1/readme.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
