O Octano ajuda você a escolher onde abastecer com base em dados públicos e oficiais — não em achismo. Reunimos, em um só lugar, os registros oficiais do governo e das agências brasileiras e cruzamos com a localização dos postos, para você decidir com informação de verdade antes de encher o tanque. O QUE VOCÊ ENCONTRA • Preços de combustível (gasolina, etanol, diesel e GNV) e comparação entre postos próximos • Registros oficiais da ANP: fiscalização, cadastro de revendedores e preços semanais • Registros de defesa do consumidor (Procon e SINDEC/Senacon): empresas autuadas e reclamações fundamentadas • Postos com bombas certificadas pelo IPEM-SP (selo "Bombas Seguras") • Localização, notas e avaliações do Google • Preços informados pela própria comunidade de usuários • Rotas até o posto escolhido TRANSPARÊNCIA EM PRIMEIRO LUGAR O Octano é um app informativo. Ele não fiscaliza postos, não certifica combustível e não emite juízo próprio: apenas reproduz registros públicos, sempre com indicação da fonte e da data. Cada informação mostra seu nível de confiança, e você pode conferir os dados brutos. GRATUITO, DE VERDADE Todo o conteúdo é gratuito, sem assinatura e sem desbloqueio pago. Se quiser apoiar o projeto, existem contribuições opcionais ("gorjetas") — uma forma de ajudar a manter a infraestrutura e ampliar as bases de dados. Elas não liberam nenhum recurso: são apenas um apoio, porque o Octano é um app social e independente. PRIVACIDADE Sem cadastro, sem login, sem propaganda e sem venda de dados. Feito em conformidade com a LGPD. SÓ NO BRASIL O Octano usa dados públicos do governo federal e de órgãos brasileiros (ANP, Procon, IPEM). Por isso, funciona com dados do Brasil.
