Why we exist

Africa's farms run on guesswork.

Farmers feed the continent, yet most still farm without records, field data or fair credit. That costs harvests, money and opportunities, for the farmer and for everyone who wants to support them.

No records, no credit

Planting dates, inputs and sales live in memory or a notebook, so lenders lend little or charge a lot.

Lenders fly blind

There is no cheap way to check that a crop was planted, is growing well or was sold.

Decisions without data

Soil moisture, crop health and which field makes money are known only when it is too late.

Slow advice and scouting

Extension officers serve many farms, and checking a big field for pests on foot takes days.

01 · Farm financing

Farm records become credit.

A farmer's everyday records in Purazi become a credit history a lender can trust, and the farmer decides who sees it. Lenders check the report against our backup, so they know it was not changed.

  1. 1
    The farmer keeps records as they farmCrops, inputs, sales and animals, even offline.

  2. Agree to shareOnly with the lender picked
  3. Lender decidesFunds inputs or a loan
  4. Crop is trackedUpdates, sensors, drone checks
  5. Sell and repayThrough a buyer or the Purazi market

Every repaid season builds the record, so the next loan is easier to approve.

Farmers own their data. We never sell farm records. A lender sees a report only when the farmer chooses to share it.

02 · Our flagship app

Purazi, the farm app behind every service.

Purazi is where the farm record starts. It is free on Google Play, works without network on basic Android phones, uses big picture buttons that need little reading, and speaks ChiShona, isiNdebele and English. Purazi is ChiShona for farm.

01

Every harvest, sale and dollar. One app.

Crops, animals, fields, store room, equipment and workers, with money in USD or ZiG. Everything saves on the phone first and backs up by itself when network comes back.

Your app is perfect. I am so glad I came across it.

I have been struggling to get all my data in one place, especially on harvesting days, to keep track of records and finances, and whether we are making a profit or not.

03 · 04 · IoT, data and drones

See the whole farm, from soil to sky.

Sensors and drones add what a farmer cannot see from the path: how wet the soil is, how the grain store is holding up and which corner of the field is in trouble. Every reading lands in the same farm record.

We are taking pilot partners for sensors and drones.

03

Sensors that watch the field for you.

Soil moisture, weather and storage sensors send readings to Purazi. Farmers get a reminder when it is time to irrigate, and cooperatives and lenders get dashboards and season analytics across many farms.

  • Soil moisture and weather stations
  • Grain store temperature and humidity
  • Dashboards for cooperatives, lenders and NGOs

Drones that scout in minutes, not days.

A drone flies the field and maps crop health, so the farmer walks straight to the patches that need attention. We also measure fields and spray precisely, and the results are added to the farm record for lenders and insurers.
