Live 41 languages Built in Accra

See it before the news does.

WASID — Whole Africa Sentinel Intelligence Data. Every claim is weighed by six independent signals, in 41 languages, across Africa and its seas. What corroborates gets verified. What doesn't gets flagged — never dressed up. You are billed on verified data only.

The moat

Left of the journalist.

News is the last link in the chain. The moat is everything to its left.

Live today — the moment a claim surfaces anywhere in the chain, six independent signals weigh it: cross-source corroboration, the fact-check record, spread velocity, prior-narrative correlation, known manipulation patterns, and an AI read. Before the broadcast — and usually before the write-up.

In development — the physical-reality layer. Satellite, thermal, water and vessel signals, designed to read the ground before it becomes a story, are being built — not yet operational. We'll say so plainly until they are; that is the house style.

Method

Tally. Compare. Filter. Predict.

Tally

Count what is actually carrying a claim — distinct, credible outlets, not echoes of one post.
Compare

Six independent signals weigh in. No single signal — not even the model — can decide the verdict alone.
Filter

What can't be corroborated is flagged unverified — a first-class verdict, never buried, never dressed up.
Predict

Narrative velocity and historical precedent show where a claim is heading before it lands.

Measured

A measurement — a reading, a recorded quantity — verifies itself. Reality doesn't need a second witness.

Reported

A claim — someone says a thing happened — is human-verified. An analyst confirms with a confidence score or dismisses with a reason; every decision is audited. We bill on verified data.

Coverage

Forty-one languages. One continent.

The sentinel ingests 41 languages — Africa and its seas, in the languages claims actually travel in, not just the colonial three. Thirty-two of them carry a hand-built keyword lexicon in the scanner today; all 41 are read by the model. As a language gains its lexicon it is marked here — plainly. That is the house style.

Signal

The verified feed

Geocoded, verdict-scored risk events over API. Verified by default — unverified never leaks into the feed.

The ethic

Events and risks — never individuals.

No surveillance. No person tracking, no identity resolution, no de-anonymisation. Public sources first; interception never. This line is not a disclaimer — it is what makes the sentinel legal, sellable, and worth trusting across the continent.
