Kimoyo Insights, from 12-Week Research Cycles to 5 Minutes with AI

Consumer brands required retail insights from numerous outlets. Traditional research was slow and outdated. I created a platform that provides real-time market data in minutes with AI analysis for instant visibility and informed decisions.

From zero-to-one products to platforms at $16B scale, I work across the full product lifecycle, from early research to shipped features.

At Flutterwave, Africa's largest fintech, I led the end-to-end redesign of the business dashboard, a platform processing $16B+ in transactions. The redesign increased merchant activation by 36% and monthly active users by 25%.

I also built Kimoyo, a research intelligence platform that turns market data into strategic clarity. Backed by Google and Precursor VC, Kimoyo became the intelligence partners for Microsoft, Nestlé, and other global brands navigating various markets.

Trusted by leading companies to create impactful experiences, fulfil research needs, & transform ideas into meaningful solutions.

Building the

African Design Ecosystem

When I started, there was no structured design education community across Africa. Just individual designers working in isolation, with limited access to mentorship, learning resources, or career pathways.

I partnered with Figma to change that. What began as a single meetup in Lagos, Nigeria became Friends of Figma Africa with groups across 26 cities in 11 countries, driving continuous learning, mentorship, and career advancement opportunities.

 

It's now the largest design community on the continent.
