A Hapo Group Company

Know your audience.Understand your market.

Make better decisions. Hapo Intelligence is an African consumer and market intelligence platform that transforms data into actionable business decisions.

Overview

Built for the realities of African markets, Hapo Intelligence brings together audience behaviour, cultural affinities, brands, places, media, location and real-world consumer signals to help businesses understand who their customers are, what influences them, where opportunities exist and what they should do next.

Instead of relying only on traditional demographics, surveys and historical reports, Hapo Intelligence uses AI-powered intelligence to uncover the relationships between consumers and the brands, artists, entertainment, destinations, places and experiences that shape their preferences.

Ask Hapo

Complex data, answered in plain language.

Hapo Intelligence makes complex data accessible through a conversational AI interface. Instead of navigating hundreds of reports, users can simply ask:

“We are launching a premium coffee brand in South Africa. Which audiences should we target?”

“What brands have the strongest affinity with Amapiano audiences?”

“Which consumer segments should a premium automotive brand target?”

“What type of retailers would appeal to young professionals?”

“Which brands would make the strongest strategic partnership for our audience?”

Hapo analyses the available intelligence and converts it into clear, actionable recommendations.

The Vision

Building Africa’s Consumer Intelligence Layer.

Africa generates enormous amounts of consumer, cultural, retail, mobility and location data, but much of that intelligence remains fragmented. Hapo Intelligence is building the infrastructure to connect those signals.

Our vision is to create an intelligence layer that enables organisations to understand people, places, culture, commerce and attention within one platform — starting in South Africa and Kenya and expanding across the continent.
