About GANI Copilot

Public records should answer public questions.

GANI helps people understand Niger State budgets and projects without needing to read hundreds of pages or work through a spreadsheet. Every important answer is designed to lead back to the record it came from.

What GANI changes

From a published PDF to a usable public answer.

Government budgets contain decisions that affect roads, schools, healthcare, agriculture and livelihoods. Yet information is often spread across long documents, inconsistent labels and technical tables.

GANI organises those records into searchable data, uses controlled AI tools to explain them, and keeps the evidence close enough for a citizen to check the answer independently.

The citizen journey

One question can lead all the way to the source.

01

Find

Search budgets, projects, locations, ministries and official documents in ordinary language.

02

Understand

GANI calculates figures from structured records and explains public-finance terms without changing their meaning.

03

Verify

Open the document, page and passage used for an important answer. If adequate evidence is missing, GANI says so.

04

Contribute

Share a community observation for review without allowing it to overwrite the official project record.

Who it is for

Built around real public-information needs.

Residents and community leaders

Find what was approved for a place, understand who is responsible and know what the public record does—or does not—confirm.

Journalists and civic organisations

Trace claims to source pages, explore allocations and identify questions that need reporting or formal information requests.

Public institutions

Make published records easier to navigate while retaining the issuing authority and original document as the source of truth.

The role of AI

AI explains the record. It does not become the record.

Calculations come from software. Totals, percentages, rankings and comparisons are computed from structured records.

Answers remain evidence-bound. Document questions use passages retrieved from the selected document, not unrestricted model knowledge.

Uncertainty stays visible. Missing, partial or conflicting evidence is shown as a limitation rather than filled with a confident guess.

What GANI does not claim

An approved budget is not proof that money was released or a project was completed. A community observation is not an official government status. GANI is not an audited spending register, an emergency-reporting service or a substitute for investigation. It is a clearer route into the public evidence that exists.

Where this can go

Start locally, then build a shared civic-information infrastructure.

The expansion plan begins with stronger Niger State coverage, then reusable state deployments across Nigeria and locally governed adaptations across Africa.
