We build the technology Africa runs on

Identity, verification, payments, messaging and AI. Eleven products of our own already run on them. So can yours.

01 — Identity

We build core technology: the identity, verification, payment, messaging and AI layer beneath African software. Then we build the systems institutions run on top of it. Nothing reaches a customer that has not already carried our own products in production.

Fig. 00 / Systems architecture

Everything we ship sits on five services. So does everything we build for you.

No client edition, no cut-down tier, no separate roadmap. A system built for you attaches at the same layer our own products do.

L4Conversation

Yebo, the conversational layer

One assistant, signed in once, driving every product beneath it over MCP.

L5Frontier

Autonomy

Not built

Earth observation and the data layer beneath it. What is on the ground, where, and what changed since the last pass.

L4 is where the leverage is

One conversation operates every product beneath it, so a new capability arrives everywhere at once rather than product by product.

Same layer, no lesser tier

A system built for you attaches where our own products attach. There is no client edition running behind a version.

The portfolio is the test rig

Nothing reaches a customer that has not already carried our own traffic, at our own expense, for months.

L5 is dashed on purpose

It is not built. It stays drawn that way until it flies, on this page and everywhere else we draw it.

Read from the ground up. Every other figure on this page is a detail of one of these five layers.L1 — L5

Listed by the kind of organisation, because the question this page has to answer is whether we have built for one like yours. Named case studies sit on the partnerships page; reference contacts go out on request.

Decisions from the record

Administration is what each of these systems does. The record it leaves is what changes how a ministry decides.

03 — Standards held to

Standards someone else set, and audited.

Three of these were checked by a party with no interest in us passing. That is the only kind worth listing.

Regulator-cleared onboarding

The regulator reviewed the verification flow, the record-keeping and the retention terms before onboarding went live. Nothing there is self-certified, and the review is repeatable on request.

National financial regulator

FIFA venue standardization

The entry and crowd-flow requirements a standardized venue is held to were audited against the system as deployed, at full capacity rather than in a test.

Venue standardization

Government-grade architecture

Identity on every request, row-level scoping and a complete audit trail — applied across the whole estate rather than assembled for one deployment under review.

Applied estate-wide
04 — The portfolio

Eleven products of our own, in daily use here.

Not a catalogue. A ministry choosing between us and a consultancy flown in for the engagement is asking who understands the country. Products in daily use here, carried by the same five services we are offering you, is the answer.

Who they serve
The shopkeeper in Lagos
restocking and settling with a supplier from one thread.
The welder in Nairobi
finding work without a CV or a data bundle to spare.
The school in Accra
keeping its own records instead of a filing cabinet.

A supplier flown in for the engagement cannot write that paragraph. It is the whole reason the portfolio is on this page. The full index is one level down.

05 — The platform

The platform you build on.

Five services, each one carrying our own products in production before it carries yours. You integrate them, or we build on top of them for you. There is no third arrangement.

  • YeboID

    Identity and single sign-on
  • YeboVerify

    KYC, KYB and AML
  • YeboPay

    Payments and settlement
  • YeboLink

    SMS, WhatsApp and email
  • YeboAI

06 — Custom builds

The system we build for you.

Some systems cannot be bought. A national venue’s gate control. A regulator-cleared onboarding flow. A ministry’s citizen request desk. We build those on the platform above, not on a separate stack kept for clients.

What you get

A system specified against your process, built in your environment, and operated by your team. Identity, verification, payments and messaging are already solved before the first line is written for you.

What it runs on

The same five services that carry every one of our own products in production. You are not the first traffic they will see.

What it is not

Not a licence to a product that almost fits. Not a tier. Not a pilot that quietly becomes the production system.

07 — How we engage

Engineers in your team, not a ticket queue.

Institutions do not buy software so much as they take on a supplier. These are the terms of that, written before you ask.

Who does the work

The engineers who built the platform. Named, on your calls, in your channel. Not a delivery manager relaying to a team you never meet.

How it runs

Two-week increments against a written scope. Something running in your environment inside the first month, rather than a design document that describes one.

Who is on call

A named engineer, an escalation path, and a response window written into the contract rather than into a brochure.

What handover looks like

Your team commits to the same repository from the first week. Runbooks, architecture notes and an operations walkthrough land before the engagement closes, not after it.

08 — Security and data

Six questions procurement asks, answered in writing.

Rather than extracted over six weeks of email. Each one is answered in full, alongside the authorization model and the document pack.

  1. 01Where the data lives
  2. 02Who can reach it
  3. 03What is written down
  4. 04Who else touches it
  5. 05Who owns it
  6. 06When something fails
09 — Continuity

What happens if we are not here.

The question every institution asks late and quietly. It is cheaper to answer it now, in writing.

Who owns the code

You do. The system built for you is yours, in a repository you control, from the first commit rather than the final invoice.

Who owns the data

You do. A full export in an open format is a term of the contract, not a favour at the end of one.

If we part ways

Exit terms are written at the start: source, data, runbooks, and a handover period long enough for your team or another supplier to take it over without a gap in service.

Where we are

Yebo Hub in Manzini — a coworking space, meeting rooms, a studio and a café, and the first of them. A company with a street address people walk into is a different kind of supplier from one with a support address.

10 — FrontierNot built

Nobody has flown this ground. So nobody has the data.

Aerial survey, models that read what comes back, and a data layer that compounds every pass. Most decisions about ground in this region are still made against a survey somebody did years ago.

Fig. 07 / Autonomy · the frontier layer

Fly it. Land it. Read it. Act on it. Then fly it again.

Four stages and a season that returns to the start. The loop is the point — one pass is a survey, six are a record nobody else holds.

Why it compounds

The asset is not the aircraft. It is the time series.

Anyone can buy a drone. What cannot be bought is six seasons of the same ground, joined to a registry, across markets where nobody else has flown. That moat widens on its own, which is the argument for starting now rather than when the models get better.

Who it servesOne set of passes, a different question in each.
Logistics
Corridors, ports and road conditions, so a route is planned against what is on the ground now rather than what was there last year.
Border and national security
What is at a border, a coastline or a site of interest, and what moved since the last pass. Observation on a schedule, with the record kept in-country.
Agriculture
Food-security forecasting, subsidy targeting and drought response against real numbers instead of last year’s survey.
Land and tenure
Parcels, boundaries and encroachment, joined to the registry already in YeboLand rather than held in a system of its own.

Not built yet. Drawn dashed everywhere it appears, and it stays that way until it flies.

11 — Engage

Start with a conversation, not a commitment.

Three ways in, none of which requires a procurement process to begin. A named person answers each of them.

A briefing

Forty-five minutes on what you are trying to do and whether we are the right supplier for it. We will say if we are not.

Request a briefing

A technical review

Your engineers and ours, on the architecture, the data boundary and the integration surface. Bring the objections.

Book a technical review

References and documents

Capability statement, sub-processor list, processing terms, and contacts at deployments already running.
