Resumé

Rwazi, a data service startup that provides organizations with fresh, on-ground data on products, services, and consumer activities from Africa to facilitate effective decision making.

Le problème

There is no means of collecting and analysing on-ground data from developing countries. 1. On one hand, organizations need data on millions of products from traditional (informal) retail outlets, local services, and consumer activities, all of which cannot be accessed automatically with digital equipment. Organizations need this data to optimize distribution and improve service offerings. 2. On the other hand, millions of young people in Africa need income-generating activities. They use smartphones, have daily access to the internet and they are the consumer base themselves.

La Solution

A network of data collectors, called mappers, who immediately harvest data from their surroundings when notified and get paid for it. 1. Organizations contat Rwazi and place orders of what data to collect, with specifics. 2. Mappers get notified and immediately harvest the data use our mobile/web application. 3. Organizations receive analytics and insights.
