About KikaPay

KikaPay Technologies is a Dar es Salaam-based AI company. Its Kika assistant works over WhatsApp: users send a photo of a bill or a shopping list, and Kika contacts shops anywhere in Tanzania, including those without an app or website, to find prices, recommend the best deal per item and share the shop's name, phone number and location.

Kika verifies prices and offers a free re-order if something goes wrong. The company's LinkedIn profile describes TenderSasa, which uses AI to match government, UN and World Bank tenders to Tanzanian businesses. Its website is in Swahili with an English option.
