Investment & partnership

Invest in a studio that ships.

Mpaukwu Trading builds and operates a portfolio of software products across many industries, Nigeria-first and to a global standard. We're open to investment or partnership - in the studio as a whole, or in a single product you believe in. This page is an introduction; the specifics are a conversation.

Why this studio

Not a pitch deck of ideas - a working portfolio with production discipline behind it.

Most software bets are on a single unproven product. Mpaukwu is different: it's a studio that has already shipped, with a portfolio spanning healthcare, retail, education, hospitality, real estate, food, marketplaces, and edge-AI. Several products are live on their own domains; others are in pilot or active development. That breadth spreads risk and lets a winner be doubled down on.

The work is built the way durable software should be - admin surfaces that explain the business, revenue and trust logic you can inspect, offline-first resilience, and production readiness before scale. The studio is a CAC-registered Nigerian business (BN 7294223) with a public trust and verification page, not an anonymous promise.

Where we're heading

Directions we're actively building toward or exploring. Some are shipped, some are early concepts - we're honest about which is which in a conversation.

Defensive security & ISR

Protecting people, land, and infrastructure

Building on VIGIL: edge-AI monitoring for farms, critical infrastructure, and private premises. Strictly defensive - anomaly detection and evidence for a human to act on. No offensive capability, and facial recognition is not used.

Applied AI & agents

Agent-ready commerce, discovery, and identity

MCP gateways and answer-engine readiness so African businesses are discoverable and transactable by AI agents (Africa Connect) - and verifiable agent identity for the HTTP 402 era: who an agent is and who it acts for. See OpenKYB →

Agent-swarm growth

A 24/7 marketing swarm, human-in-the-loop

Specialised agents research, write, and propose outreach around the clock; a human approves every person-facing send through a webhook - reach without becoming spam.

Fintech-adjacent

Money logic that reconciles

Commission engines, ledgers, escrow conditions, and cashier reconciliation across the portfolio - the groundwork for agent-native and SaaS-native payment rails.

Software → hardware

Moving from SaaS into devices

African devtech is almost all software, because software is cheap to start - which is also why it's crowded. Hardware is the harder, emptier road, and the moat. SidScan, a Nigeria-first OBD-II car scanner, is our deliberate first step. See SidScan →

Cross-domain

Ideas in almost every industry

From food tech to education to property, the studio moves into a domain by learning its language first. If your thesis is in a space we haven't shipped yet, that's still a conversation worth having.
