The Problem

African data exists. Finding and using it is the hard part.

Kenya generates vast amounts of economic, demographic, and trade data — yet it remains scattered across government portals, PDFs, and siloed tools. Data professionals are left stitching together fragments when they should be building insights.

01

Data is scattered and hard to find

Economic indicators, county-level demographics, trade records, and survey results live across dozens of disconnected sources with no standard format or discovery layer.

02

No community built around Kenyan data

Global platforms like Kaggle and Zindi run competition-based models. There is no dedicated space for Kenyan data professionals to collaborate, share, and build together outside of a contest.

03

Analysis requires specialist tools

Most platforms hand you a file and leave you to it. Non-engineers and domain experts — journalists, policy analysts, NGO researchers — have no accessible path from raw data to insight.
