Nigerian Startup Builds AI Assistant for Daily Tasks

Imagine managing your bills, ordering dinner, booking deliveries, and monitoring your home security from a single, simple platform built just for you.

That's exactly what HelpMe AI Solutions is bringing to Nigeria in 2026. Founded by Ezekiel Nwaeke, the startup is developing an AI assistant that consolidates everyday digital tasks into one user-friendly system designed specifically for Nigerian households, startups, and small businesses.

The platform tackles a real problem many Nigerians face: juggling multiple apps and services just to get through daily tasks. Instead of switching between different platforms for payments, food orders, deliveries, and business management, users can handle everything through one AI-powered interface.

What makes HelpMe AI different is its focus on local needs. The team built the platform around how Nigerians actually live and work, not how people operate in other countries. Features like guided prompts and simplified interfaces mean you don't need to be tech-savvy to use it.

Security concerns shaped the platform's development too. HelpMe AI Solutions is also creating a companion product called HelpMe AI Home Automation, which includes remote CCTV monitoring, AI-powered sensors, smart lighting, and automated gate control. These features directly address the security challenges many Nigerian households and businesses face daily.

"HelpMe AI was developed to simplify everyday digital tasks by bringing multiple services into one platform that users can navigate easily," Nwaeke explained. "Our focus is on building solutions that reflect how people actually live and work in Nigeria."

For small businesses and startups, the integrated tools promise to reduce operational headaches. Task coordination and service management features are designed to help these businesses run more smoothly without adding complexity.

The Ripple Effect

When technology meets real local needs, entire communities benefit. By making digital services accessible to users with varying tech experience, HelpMe AI could help more Nigerians participate in the digital economy. Small businesses gain efficiency tools once reserved for larger companies. Households get affordable smart home security. And everyone saves time previously lost to managing multiple platforms and apps.

The company is taking data protection seriously too, implementing security policies to safeguard user information as the platform develops. With the full launch planned for 2026, HelpMe AI Solutions is preparing for phased deployment across Nigeria.

Sometimes the best innovations aren't the flashiest but the ones that simply make life easier for real people.
