    What a time, what an adventure! From intense presentations to the crowning of our winners, the AI Connect Hackathon was an unforgettable experience. Our 1st place winners, Bwenge introduced an AI chatbot that enables citizens, even those without internet access, to access government services via a simple phone call. Integrated with a payment gateway, it allows users to make effortless payments, and even offers real-time translation for conversations between different languages. This bot does it all! ImmersiveAI took 2nd place with a platform that enables businesses to create custom AI agents for automated workflows and boost productivity. In 3rd place, SomaTekAI built an AI browser extension simplifying technical documentation, a tool aiding Rwanda’s mission to train a million coders under the second National Strategy for Transformation (NST2) by 2029.

    CEO at Pindo - Voice AI.

    I'm thrilled to announce that Pindo's Voice AI is in beta. Our new Pindo Voice AI product is designed with African companies and their users in mind. It allows for communication in local languages and automates comms, ensuring a user-centric approach. SMS and USSD are mainly text-based, making them difficult for African users with low digital and literacy levels to access. This increases customer churn. After sending over 120 million texts, we realized that most people need to read them. Many also have unread SMS notifications, sometimes reaching up to 500. With the launch of Pindo Voice AI, we're opening doors to improved customer engagement for African companies. By automating comms and engaging customers in local languages, we aim for higher response rates and deliverability, fostering a sense of optimism and hope. This takes us one step closer to our mission at Pindo: transforming communication in Africa with Voice AI, enabling businesses to reach and engage millions of people in their native languages. We're trying a beta test with 3 companies. Know anyone? Tag them and join the waitlist. https://pindo.ai/waitlist
