Our vision and mission

Vision

An Africa where every household, business, investor and public institution can find, trust and use the economic data they need to make good decisions.

Mission

To collect official economic statistics, check them, explain what they mean in plain language and publish them openly, starting with Nigeria and extending to other African economies.

What we do

• Bring scattered official figures together in one place, each with its source and release date.
• Publish dashboards, open datasets and a public API so the figures can be analysed and reused.
• Write independent analysis that explains what changed and why it matters.
• Extend the same methods and standards to other African economies, country by country.

Our values

• Accuracy: we use official sources first and say when a figure is an estimate.
• Openness: our data is free to use with attribution.
• Independence: funders and partners do not shape our findings.
• Clarity: we write for people who need to use the numbers, not only for specialists.
