We are using mobile connectivity & AI to provide animal care & social protection for animal owners.
About the startup
What are you building?
I am building a digital animal health company that is leveraging technology to provide access to comprehensive animal care coverage and social protection for animal owners across Africa. Our service enables direct connection of livestock farmers to animal health professionals close to them, veterinary clinics, and vendors of livestock products with input financing support while availing smart-driven & artificial intelligence-powered feed calculators and disease predictors for livestock farmers.
Problem you're solving
We are solving the problem of preventable livestock diseases and lack of access to quality animal care, which causes $445M in annual disease losses in Nigeria. This translates to losses in jobs and employment for farmers and animal health professionals.
