For parties and candidates across Nigeria

Be at every count, all at once.

Your agents are already at the polling units. Etimbuk gives them a simple way to send each result, and gives you one calm place to watch it all come in.

See how it works

At the polling unit

Your agent snaps the result sheet, and it's sealed right there on the phone.

The Etimbuk agent app's home screen, greeting the agent by name, showing their polling unit, and lighting up the next job on their checklist.

In your situation room

As soon as there's signal, it arrives here, with its time and seal, for you to see.

Between the last ballot and the declaration, there's a long, anxious wait.

Etimbuk means good news, and we built it to bring light to that wait.

Nothing hidden

Every polling unit has a visible state, even when it's gone quiet. If a result is missing, you'll see that it's missing.

Nothing lost

A dropped network doesn't drop a result. It waits on the phone and keeps trying until it's safely through.

Nothing quietly changed

Each result is sealed where it's captured. A correction becomes a new record that points to the old one, in plain view.

How it works

Made for a long day in the sun.

Your agents have enough to think about on election day. So the app stays out of their way, works on everyday phones, and carries on when the network doesn't. These are real screens from the app, with sample details.

All day

Your agent always knows what's next.

Once they're signed in, it's one polling unit and one bright button for the next job. A tap notes the time, so you know when materials arrived and when voting started. Their coordinator is one tap away too.

The agent app's home screen. It says Hello, Amina, shows their polling unit with a Call button, and lights up the next job: Materials arrived?

When the result is announced

A good photo, the first time.

Your agent snaps the sheet, and the phone finds its four corners. Then a short checklist makes sure it's the right sheet, free of glare, with signatures and stamp in view.

A screen asking Is every figure readable? It shows the photographed result sheet with its corners found, above a checklist of four things to confirm.

A minute later

The phone reads. Your agent checks.

Figures are read from the photo, right there on the phone. Anything hard to read is marked “Check this”, the photo stays close by to compare, and their work is kept, even if the phone switches off.

The Check the figures screen. The photo sits at the top, figures are filled in below, and one is tinted and marked Check this.

Then

Saved and sealed, signal or not.

Your agent gets a receipt straight away, with the time, the figures and the photo. The record is sealed on the phone from that moment, and they can move on to the next sheet.

A receipt titled Saved on this phone, with the time saved, the party figures and the photographed sheet below.

When the network drops

It waits, then sends itself.

Everything stays safely on the phone, in a list your agent can see. When signal returns, it all goes through without anyone lifting a finger.

The Waiting to send screen, listing a Senate sheet and six milestones, each saved and waiting.

The situation room

When polls close, your room lights up.

Results land as they're sent, adding up from unit to ward to state to the whole country. Your agents' situation reports, photos and videos arrive alongside them, so you can see how the day is going at every unit.

The whole country, state by state. Select a state to open it.

This is a demo. Parties, names and figures are made up, and nothing here is a real result. Only the maps and the counts of polling units are real.

Disagreements surface on their own

When something doesn't add up, the room flags it for you. It says what differs and by how much, and never points a finger.

From a ward to the whole country

Follow the count from polling unit to ward, LGA, state and nation. Everyone on your team sees the part of the count that's theirs.

You know who to call

See how far each unit has got, from materials arriving to the result announced, and which agents haven't said. Units with no agent stand out, and every agent is a call away.

Your count, not the official one

The room shows what your agents saw, added up level by level. It won't guess a winner, and it never stands in for INEC's declaration.

Five states, and you always know which one you're looking at.

Awaiting
No sheet from this unit yet.
Silent
This unit has gone quiet for a while. Time to check in on your agent.
Received
The sheet has arrived, and its photo and checks are still to come.
Locked
Checked against its seal and counted.
Disputed
Something doesn't match, so it's set aside for your team to review.

AI insights

Nothing gets lost in the rush.

On election night, result sheets, situation reports and incident reports pour in from every corner, units go quiet and disputes open while your team is still on the last one. Ask the room what's changed, in plain words, and get a short answer from your own records, with the places to look next.

Asking about NigeriaSample data

Open a state in the situation room above, and the answers follow it.

Asked: What's changed in the last hour?

5,834 sheets were locked and 3,897 more arrived. 477 units went silent, with the most in Lagos and Katsina. A new dispute opened in Kano.

35 situation reports came in. 12 are from Kaduna, most saying accreditation started later than the timetable.

Start with the dispute, then call the agents who went quiet and read the reports from Kaduna.

This is a demo with made-up figures. In the room, answers are written by AI from your records. Like any AI, it can get things wrong, so the units it names are there for you to check.

Nothing lost in the rush

It reads everything coming into the room at once: result sheets, situation and incident reports, silences and disputes. So the one unit that needs you stands out from the thousands that don't.

Straight to the units that need you

It says what changed, by how much and where, then names the units to open next. Every figure comes from what your agents sent, so you can trace it back.

Your team makes every call

It reads and explains, and if the answer isn't in your records, it says so. Records stay exactly as your agents sent them, and every dispute is settled by your team.

In the works

Help capturing the sheet

We're training models to help your agents capture the result sheet at the polling unit, so less is left to a tired hand at the end of a long day. More on that soon.

Trust

If anyone changes a result, you'll see it.

Every result is sealed the moment your agent sends it. You don't have to take our word for it: you can try it yourself below.

  1. 1

    Your agent sends a result

    The votes for each party at a polling unit, straight from the phone.

  2. 2

    We seal it right away

    The app turns those exact numbers into a unique pattern, like a fingerprint for that result.

  3. 3

    Any change shows up

    Change even one vote and the pattern no longer matches. Nobody can alter a result without it showing.

How we look after your records

  • Checked on arrival

    Photos, videos and results are sealed on the phone and checked again when they reach us.

  • Photos show where and when

    Each photo is stamped with its place and time. The picture itself is never altered.

  • Kept safe on the phone

    Result sheets and videos stay inside the app, not the phone's gallery, until they've arrived safely.

  • Ready for court

    Records are built to be used as evidence before INEC or a tribunal, and they're kept after the election.

  • Only yours

    Your records are kept apart from other clients'. An agent works for one party only.

  • Nothing deleted

    Sealed records are never edited or removed. A correction is added as a new record, so the full history stays visible.

Questions

Good questions, plain answers.

Elections are serious business, and it's only right to ask. Here's what you'll probably want to know first.

No, and it never pretends to be. Etimbuk shows what your agents saw and recorded. Only INEC declares results. We don't forecast, and we won't name a likely winner either.

Etimbuk means glad tidings

Light in the gap between polls and declaration.

Your agents will be there on election day. We'd love for you to see what they see.
