Built for Africa, AI-Native by Design
Africa's transport challenges aren't new — but the way we solve them can be. In Kampala, riders and drivers rely on a system that works, but only just.
Africa's transport challenges aren't new — but the way we solve them can be.
In Kampala, riders and drivers rely on a system that works, but only just: patchy maps, unreliable connectivity, unpredictable routes, and daily uncertainty. Global platforms built for European or American infrastructure often struggle here. The result? Journeys are longer, riskier, and less fair than they need to be.
At Gendayo, we believe Africa deserves better. That's why from day one, our platform is being designed as AI-native and Africa-ready.
Smarter journeys, not just more rides
AI isn't a buzzword for us — it's the foundation of how we simplify daily mobility. From predicting demand during a sudden downpour to connecting riders with the closest trusted driver, our goal is to cut wasted time and fuel.
- Smart Matching: Pairing riders with the best driver in seconds.
- Optimized Routes: Suggesting safer, faster paths even where maps are incomplete.
- Intelligent Scheduling: Helping drivers plan their day for fairer, more predictable income.
Each ride strengthens the system, making the next journey even smarter.
Safety you can trust
Mobility isn't just about moving from A to B — it's about confidence along the way. With AI built into the core experience, we can embed safety in ways traditional platforms can't:
- Verified drivers and riders.
- Predictive risk monitoring on routes.
- Instant alerts when conditions change.
Because in cities where millions depend on transport every day, trust is not optional.
Offline by design
In many African cities, internet coverage drops in and out. That's why Gendayo is being built to keep working even when connectivity isn't perfect. Riders can still book. Drivers can still earn. Journeys don't stop just because the signal does.
Why this matters
Urban mobility is the lifeline of African economies. By being AI-native and Africa-ready, Gendayo is designed for the realities on the ground — unlocking safer, smarter, and fairer journeys for millions.
This isn't a retrofit of a Western model. It's a platform built for Africa, from the ground up.
Join the journey
We're just getting started. Gendayo is currently in research and development inside the Antler Nordics 2025 cohort. Over the coming months, we'll be testing our ideas directly with riders and drivers in Kampala.
