We're building APIs, models and open assets for emerging markets, and open-sourcing most of what we make in partnership with OpenAI4Africa.
What we're building
APIs, open source and open assets.
Everything we ship is designed for the conditions of emerging markets: multilingual, efficient and ready for the edge.
- 01
APIs
Platform APIs for model aggregation, autonomous agents and scalable inference: the same layers that power our six products.
In development · early access by request - 02
Open source
Every SISU AI company has a public, MIT-licensed repository on GitHub, so you can follow the work and build on it.

Leveraging AI for Food Safety and Security
In partnership with
Borderless AI.
For Africans, for all.
OpenAI4Africa fosters collaborative AI research, drives contextualized innovation and propels sustainable development across the sectors critical to Africa's success. Together, we open-source our work and build AI that speaks Africa's languages.
Focus areas

Three pillars guide the work: democratizing AI education and talent development, responsible AI innovation and contextualization, and strategic partnerships that build capability.
Principles
How we build in the open.
- 01
Open by default
We publish code and resources openly unless there is a clear reason not to, such as safety, privacy or a partner's trust.
- 02
Edge first
Small, efficient models that work offline, on affordable phones and through USSD and SMS.
- 03
Responsible by design
Guardrails, provenance and jurisdiction-aware controls from the first commit.
- 04
Local context
Built with the communities, languages and institutions we serve, across academia, government and industry.
