How it works

Simple for the girl.
Powerful underneath.

No app download. No registration. A girl dials a code or sends a free SMS — and Imisi does the rest.

She dials or texts

Any basic phone. Dial *384# or send a free SMS. No data plan, no smartphone, no account needed.

Imisi listens first

Our AI starts a gentle conversation in her language — detecting curiosity, matching her level, and finding the right expert lesson.

Knowledge arrives

Bite-sized lessons from real academics — structured for SMS, translated into her language, and tailored to her age and curiosity.

Platform features

Built for the last mile.

Every design decision starts with one question: does this work for a girl in rural Nigeria with a basic phone?

AI Knowledge Interview

Academics don't write lessons — they answer questions. Imisi interviews them conversationally and structures the knowledge automatically.

Real-time impact tracking

Contributors see exactly how many girls received their lesson, engagement rates, follow-up questions, and geographic reach — live.

Peer review pipeline

Every lesson goes through academic peer review before going live. Quality is non-negotiable when the audience is a curious 13-year-old.

Works on any phone

SMS and USSD delivery means Imisi works on a $15 feature phone with no data plan. Designed for the last mile, not the first world.
