Durubata Limited, a technology firm, has unveiled a groundbreaking app powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI), designed specifically to help African Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), including tech startups, expand their businesses beyond local borders.
The app, named Appmint, serves as more than just a platform; it acts as a transformative catalyst that equips businesses to scale, empowers young people for future opportunities, and fosters a tech ecosystem to propel Africa’s growth and innovation onto the global stage.
During his keynote address at the Lagos launch, Durubata Limited’s CEO, Mr. Jacob Ajiboye, emphasized, “At its heart, Appmint is about establishing accessible and affordable tech infrastructure for Nigeria and Africa as a whole. We’ve witnessed how advanced tech systems, refined SaaS tools, efficient processes, and AI-enabled platforms drive growth in developed countries. Yet, these tools often remain inaccessible to African startups due to high costs or are too intricate and misaligned with local needs.”
Ajiboye explained that the company’s mission is to reshape the African business landscape through Appmint, which aims to cut operational costs and offer affordable tech tools to fuel business growth.
“Leveraging the success of tech frameworks in developed nations, our goal is to deliver similar efficiency, scalability, and innovation to Nigerian and African startups, while addressing the unique regional challenges. Appmint provides a no-code, AI-powered platform designed to empower African startups, entrepreneurs, and SMEs. Beyond simply providing tools, we deliver a complete ecosystem enabling businesses to build websites, automate processes, manage customer relationships, and utilize data-driven insights—all at significantly reduced costs and complexity,” Ajiboye further explained.
He highlighted key features of the app, which include a Drag-and-Drop Website and App Builder, simplified content creation and management, e-commerce tools, centralized social media management, CRM and marketing tools, a visuals and creative studio, booking and queue management, instant support, data visualization tools, and more.
