THE PROBLEM
Tax questions are frequent, personal, and slow to answer.
Small business owners and individuals in Nigeria regularly need quick, clear answers about tax — what applies, what to file, and how much.
Getting those answers usually means searching across scattered sources, or waiting for someone to respond.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Meet people where they already are.
WhatsApp is the default communication layer in Nigeria. A tax assistant that lives there removes the friction of downloading an app or finding a website.
THE SYSTEM
A WhatsApp-first tax assistant.
TaxBot Naija combines reference information, basic tax calculations, and AI-assisted guidance into a conversation interface.
The user asks a question in WhatsApp and gets a structured answer — with the option to go deeper.
