Applied-AI lab · West Africa

Building sovereign AI, proven in the field.

We design and host our own models — no reliance on third-party AI — and put them to the test of the real world. Agriculture is our first vertical, not our only one.

The approach

Proven science first; AI second — never the other way round.

Our models are built and hosted in-house, trained on vetted sources and designed to run where the network fails. They open up to new fields as the ground validates them.

In the field

From phone to harvest

  1. Map your plots from the phone, even with no network.
    The details

    The phone drops GPS points as you walk around the field and computes the area. No network needed: the boundary syncs later.

  2. Get diagnostics, alerts and irrigation advice at the right time.
    The details

    Satellite and your sensors watch the plot; the AI agronomist turns each signal into a concrete action for your current crop stage.

  3. Sell your harvest and connect with the farming community.
    The details

    Verified prices to decide where to sell, listings to find a buyer, and a moderated forum to share what works in your region.
