Nigerian fintech Bujeti launches BRAIN, a suite of four AI agents to automate corporate financial tasks.
TL;DR
Bujeti's new Real-time Agent Intelligence Network (BRAIN) features four AI agents Fetch, Chaser, Watchdog, and Concierge to automate tasks like invoice retrieval, customer payment follow-ups, and policy compliance.
The system is scheduled to launch publicly on September 30, with safety guardrails that require human approval for all irreversible actions such as moving money.
Intelligence
Bujeti was founded in 2022, raised $2 million in funding, and currently serves over 1,000 teams across its operational markets in Nigeria and Kenya.
Bujeti's launch of BRAIN signals a transition for African B2B fintechs from transaction processing to autonomous financial workflow automation.
Mid-market businesses in Nigeria and Kenya adopting these agents are likely to experience reduced administrative overhead and faster invoice collections.
This shift will likely compel regional competitors like Duplo and Flex to deploy native AI tools to maintain their market relevance.
