Turning Africa's locked research into working tools for local businesses.
Researchers can't afford to hire developers. Entrepreneurs can't read the papers. The gap between "I published a finding" and "Someone built a tool from it" is where most African innovation dies.
The bottleneck isn't talent or ambition. It's a missing tool: something that translates research into products without requiring a $100K data science hire.
The goal.
Build what I'm calling an "invisible IT bridge": a platform that lets local businesses use advanced analytics without data scientists or deep technical skills. It has to work on slow connections, cheap phones, and for people who've never used a SaaS product.

CareWeight — family care plan builder
What would it cost to replace you? That's the question CareWeight opens with. It's a free web app for the family member doing most of the caregiving for an aging parent (usually a daughter carrying the load while siblings "stay updated"). A nine-screen wizard turns her invisible work into a printable care plan with real dollar values: who does what now, what that work costs at market rates, and a redistribution proposal the family can sit down and discuss.
Built solo, end to end: research in caregiver communities, product definition, content design under heavy emotional constraints, visual design, and code. Vanilla JS with no framework, mobile-first, installable as a PWA, WCAG AAA verified with automated audits. The whole thing runs on privacy: no accounts, no server-side storage. A finished plan lives in the browser and travels as an encoded link; analytics are cookieless and never see what anyone typed.
