Building Africa's First Economic Ontology
We've embarked on an extraordinary journey to construct the first comprehensive ontology for African economies — a living knowledge system that maps the true causal architecture of the continent's economic dynamics. By discovering and encoding the hidden relationships between thousands of variables across 54 economies, we're creating intelligence infrastructure that transforms how institutions understand and navigate African markets. It's the foundational map of how African economies actually work, powered by causal AI and designed for decisive action.
Unifying Africa's Fragmented Data Universe
We gather vast streams of data from radically different sources — central bank releases, mobile money flows, satellite imagery, commodity prices, climate patterns, social sentiment, and informal market signals. From official statistics to street-level economic activity, we process this fragmented landscape into a unified, clear picture of economic reality across the continent.
Learning Patterns Through Advanced AI
Our machine learning systems don't just find correlations — they learn the deep causal patterns that govern economic behavior. Using advanced architectures, we detect recurring relationships, regime changes, and structural breaks, enabling the system to recognize and predict similar patterns as they emerge across different markets and timeframes.
Discovering Hidden Causal Architecture
We deploy sophisticated causal inference models to uncover the true relationships driving African economies. Beyond obvious connections, we reveal hidden transmission mechanisms — how drought in Ethiopia affects manufacturing in Kenya, or why mobile money velocity predicts inflation better than M2. This allows us to trace complex economic phenomena to their multiple origins and map the intricate web of interactions.
Generating Foresight for Decisive Action
We construct high-precision alternative scenarios and multi-horizon forecasts — from 7-day currency movements to 6-month crisis probabilities. By simulating how discovered causal chains will unfold, we provide institutional clients with actionable foresight on devaluations, inflation shocks, and sovereign stress before they materialize, enabling positioning months before crises hit.
Built by Experts, Powered by AI
Our platform combines AI-powered causal discovery with insights from seasoned macroeconomists who've shaped policy at leading economic and financial institutions. We augment this with on-the-ground intelligence from local experts across the continent who capture dynamics that never appear in official statistics. This human-in-the-loop approach — where machine learning experts, Africa-focused economists, and in-country specialists validate every model — ensures our predictions are both technically rigorous and economically sound. Through real-time APIs, executive dashboards, and expert-reviewed strategic briefs, we deliver actionable foresight on currency movements, inflation dynamics, and sovereign risks with significant advance warning.
