# Mradi wa Ardhi — Land Transaction Agent 🇰🇪
**Land fraud is Kenya’s most expensive crime.** Buying land involves a complex chain of documents—Title Deeds, Search Certificates, Transfers, and ID copies—most of which can be faked, backdated, or tampered with.
**Mradi wa Ardhi** is an AI-powered agent designed to stress-test land transactions before a buyer signs any contracts or commits funds. It serves as a digital "Land Intelligence Matrix" for advocates and prospective buyers.
## 🚀 Core Capabilities
### 1. Gemini Vision Ingestion
Upload photos or PDFs of land documents. Our agent uses **Gemini 1.5 Flash** to:
- **Node Extraction**: Identify the document type (Title Deed, Mutation, Search Certificate) and extract key metadata.
- **Signature Integrity**: Scans for ink signatures, stamps, and seals across historical records.
- **Cross-Doc Consistency**: Detects if the "Owner" on a 2012 Title matches the "Vendor" on a 2024 Sale Agreement.
### 2. Kenya Gazette Intelligence Mapping
The agent automatically searches historical **Kenya Gazette** archives (Digital Library) for any flags associated with a specific parcel number:
- **Succession Notices**: Alerts if the land is part of an ongoing probate case.
- **Compulsory Acquisitions**: Detects if the land is earmarked for bypasses, railways, or public utilities.
- **Civil Suites**: Identifies caveats or injunctions published in the gazette.
### 3. AI Risk Scoring & Audit Reports
Based on the extracted data and Gazette search, the system generates a detailed **Risk Report**:
- **Risk Score (0-100)**: Quantitative fraud probability.
- **Risk Level**: (Low, Medium, High).
- **Critical Findings**: Specific inconsistencies (e.g., "Backdated Stamp detected on Search Certificate").
- **Actionable Recommendations**: Clear legal steps to take before proceeding.
