One app absorbed the services of 42 municipal agencies and 19 state enterprises, and reports 2.4 billion transactions since 2019. Every one of those numbers comes from the operator, unaudited.

Shenzhen's "i深圳" app launched January 2019, unifying government, public and convenience services from 3 central, 42 municipal and 10 district agencies plus 19 state enterprises into one portal — over 8,000 services and 407 e-certificate types. By 2026 it had 21 million downloads and 2.4 billion cumulative transactions; a 2025 AI assistant now answers routine queries.

📊 Impact

21 million+ cumulative downloads and 2.4 billion+ cumulative digital-service transactions since 2019 (operator-reported); AI assistant 深小i (launched Feb 2025) has 1.5 million+ registered users, 6 million+ service interactions, and a reported >95% Q&A accuracy rate (as of mid-2026).

🎓 Lesson

Consolidating hundreds of disparate agency mini-programs into one super-app can reach billion-transaction scale, but the usage and accuracy figures behind it remain operator-reported, not independently audited.
