In a landmark moment for Africa’s technology ecosystem, MYai Robotics has unveiled Curation AI™, the world’s first real-time content-authentication and opinion-intelligence engine, a breakthrough built by an engineering team that is 80 percent Nigerian.
The launch positions Nigeria at the forefront of global efforts to combat misinformation, deepfakes and synthetic media, as digital falsehoods increasingly distort public opinion and disrupt institutions.
At a time when misinformation spreads faster than verified facts, Curation AI™ promises a radical shift in how people interact with online content.
Unlike most verification tools that rely on outdated static datasets, the system is designed entirely around real-time verification, scanning news, images, videos, audio and social media posts within seconds. It identifies manipulation, flags AI-generated artefacts and pulls from a live web of sources to determine authenticity before users share or react.
“Truth has never been harder to find. Curation AI™ puts verification at everyone’s fingertips, empowering people to navigate the internet with confidence,” Kayode Aladesuyi, MYai Robotics CEO said during the launch.
The platform arrives at a critical moment for Africa, where manipulated videos, fake political posts and AI-generated content have become major drivers of public discourse. With research showing that seven in ten people struggle to distinguish real content from fake, the company believes its tool can play a transformative role in restoring trust in the digital space.
Beyond content authentication, Curation AI™ introduces an entirely new capability: **real-time opinion intelligence. Users, including brands, journalists, regulators and policymakers, can track online sentiment, monitor live conversations and view what people think about any topic at any moment. The feature allows organisations to detect emerging narratives, manage crises early and understand how public opinion shifts in real time.

MYai Robotics says industries such as insurance, media, public policy, elections and corporate communications are already piloting the platform to verify documents, authenticate videos, detect fabricated materials and monitor online discourse before misinformation spreads.
“Our vision is to build tools that strengthen public trust,” the company said, adding that Curation AI™ allows organisations to run real-time opinion polls, compare sentiment trends and automatically flag harmful or misleading narratives.
Perhaps most remarkable is that the engineering, testing and deployment of Curation AI™ were carried out largely in Lagos and Abuja, using Africa-informed design principles and locally grounded research. For many in the continent’s tech community, the launch signals a turning point: Africans are no longer just consumers of advanced AI technologies, they are now creators at the frontier of global innovation.
The Nigerian government has repeatedly emphasised the need for the country to move from AI consumption to AI co-creation, targeting over 50,000 new jobs in the AI industry by 2030 and pushing for a top-50 global ranking in AI readiness. Curation AI™ demonstrates what is possible when local talent and homegrown intelligence converge with global ambition.
The platform is already live and free for public use at curationai.ai, where users can upload content, run instant verification checks, analyse sentiment and experience all major features.
For MYai Robotics, the mission is clear: give the world a tool that protects truth, rebuilds digital trust and empowers people in an era of pervasive misinformation. And with Nigerians powering 80 percent of the innovation, Curation AI™ marks one of the continent’s most significant contributions yet to global AI development.
