Five pillars of African AI-product infrastructure.
APIs
Payments, KYC, telecom, banking, logistics, government and more, with live status and licensing flags.
MCP Servers
Model Context Protocol servers for Africa, let AI agents call African infrastructure.
Datasets
Geographic, economic, health, energy, telecom and AI datasets, with format and freshness notes.
Developer Tools
SDKs, libraries, validators and utilities that solve problems specific to African markets.
AI Resources
African language models, speech & text datasets, and AI infrastructure.
02
Built for everyone shipping in Africa
One source of truth, four very different readers.
Developers
Find the payment, KYC or data API you need, and see if its docs actually work before you integrate.
Foreign founders
Understand the rails, payments, identity, licensing, before committing to an African market.
Investors
A live map of the stack: what exists, what's licensed, and where the white space is.
AI agents
Query the open JSON API and reason over clean, structured, machine-readable data.

Featured resources
Hand-picked, verified, battle-tested by Nigerian builders.
Flutterwave
Pan-African payment processor with the broadest SDK coverage (13 languages) and international remittance support. Acquired Mono in Jan 2026.
GDP/CPI time-series (World Bank API)
Free, no-auth JSON API for Nigerian macro time-series: GDP, CPI inflation, FDI, remittances, employment and more. The best developer-accessible source for Nigerian economic data.
LGA Boundaries (GRID3)
Authoritative, OSGOF-backed LGA boundary polygons for all 36 states plus FCT (Dec 2020) in GeoJSON/SHP, no auth required.
M-Pesa Daraja (Safaricom)
Safaricom's official Daraja 3.0 developer portal exposing the M-Pesa APIs (STK Push/Lipa Na M-Pesa, C2B, B2C, B2B, transaction status, account balance) for Kenya, the largest mobile-money network in Africa. Requires a registered developer account with sandbox testing before live credentials.
Mono
Open-banking data-access provider for account, identity and transaction data, with KYB tooling. Acquired by Flutterwave in Jan 2026 but still operates independently. Ships a dev sandbox Docker image.
NaijaML
Production-ready NLP library (v0.2.1, Mar 2026) covering all 4 Nigerian languages, running in 4GB RAM with no GPU, with PII masking for NIN/phone. The most practical Nigerian AI resource for developers.

Questions, answered
What Findra is, and how it works.
What is Findra?
A status-verified hub to find the APIs, MCP servers, datasets, developer tools and AI agent skills you need to build AI products in Africa, readable by humans, queryable by agents.
Which countries does Findra cover?
Nigeria is live and deeply verified today. More African countries are rolling out, the brand and data model are built pan-African from day one.
What does “status-verified” mean?
Every resource's docs, licensing and live status are actually checked, not just listed. We link to official sources and flag what's broken, parked or licensed.
Is there an API for AI agents?
Yes. Every resource is exposed over a clean, CORS-open JSON API, so agents can query the registry and reason over clean, structured data, no scraping.
How is this different from an API directory?
Most directories are APIs-only. Findra spans APIs, MCP servers, datasets, tools and AI skills, maps the relationships between them, and stays machine-readable.
How do I add or update a resource?
Submit it from the Submit page. Verified entries are added to the registry; updates and corrections are welcome.
05
Machine-readable .
Every resource is exposed over a clean, CORS-open JSON API. Point your agent at it and let it reason over the African stack, no scraping, no guesswork.
