It sees the road the driver can’t.
The problem
On Africa’s intercity highways, most roads are one lane each way with nothing down the middle. The deadliest moment is the overtake, when a driver pulls out to pass without seeing the oncoming traffic the vehicle in front is hiding.
How it works
TraqNav places sensors along the road that watch the stretch a driver cannot see. A safety core weighs the gap and the closing speed and gives one answer, go or stop, in real time. When it cannot be sure, it says stop.
Sensors watching the road
The full demo runs at traqnav.com. The sensor network is still in testing, not yet on a real corridor.
We build where global software didn’t.
Not a template dropped on a new market. Tools shaped by how commerce, movement, and trust actually work here.
Why now
of people in emerging markets underserved by global software
of the people we build for were waiting for a dashboard
AI can finally meet people in their language, on the tools they already use
Who founded this
Ivan Mba
Founder
10+ years building software, mostly the kind nobody sees. Now building for people who never asked for software. It started with African merchants who run real shops, count real cash, and never opened a "dashboard." It grew into the roads between those shops, the highways that carry a whole economy and take too many lives, and the drivers who deserve to make it home.
Trying to leave a mark, starting where I’m from.
