The civic-tech platform democratising Nigeria’s mining data
Summary
Urban Alert built Minetrix AI to make Nigeria’s mining and community-rights data easier to access. The web-based platform lets users ask questions in English, Hausa, Igbo, and Yoruba and returns cited answers from more than 37,000 public records. The team designed it with a retrieval-first approach so responses rely on indexed source documents rather than open web search. Urban Alert is now piloting the platform in Nigeria and considering expansion into Ghana and other West African mining markets. The company also plans accessibility upgrades, including text-to-speech support and a mobile app.
