Better services for those who need them most.
We build simple data tools inside government institutions in Nigeria and across Africa, with the frontline workers who use them, grounded in evidence and co-created for daily use.

The problem we solve
Officers log crimes in notebooks. Commanders guess where to send patrols. The data that could guide better decisions never reaches them.
Why this is our focus →Institutions collect service data but never disaggregate it. Gender-based disparities are invisible in the aggregate, so nothing gets done about them.

We listen to frontline workers before designing anything. Evidence of the real problem. not the assumed one. shapes everything that follows. We measure honestly and publish what we learn, including what did not work.
No new software. No IT department required. We build with tools government workers already have. systems that are simple enough to survive when we leave.
The people closest to the problem shape what gets built. Internal champions sustain it after we leave. The measure of success is whether the people who need better services are actually receiving them.
