THE TEAM
We are a team of youthful and passionate innovations and IT experts working tirelessly to understand and monitor the ever changing technology space. We strive to keep abreast with the public’s changing needs and provide solutions that best meet these needs. And hence, products like Athena come into existence.
THE NEED
We have identified major gaps between businesses and their prospective clients i.e. lack of capital to set up physical shop, lack of funds to advertise their services, lack of trust in the part of the customers in allowing new service providers access their homes to perform service, and many more. We endeavor to bridge this gap. To make this happen we have come up with a tool that ensure open and trusted interaction between the customers and service providers through the use of their mobile phones.
THE SOLUTION
The Athena platform works by providing a mobile application that both the service provider and the customer downloads and installs on their phones. They can then interact in the request and provision of services.
Components of the Solution

This allows the merchant to:
Register an account and create their business profile
Receive notifications of request of service from customers

This application allows the customer to:

Beneficiaries of the solutions
