Built for Africa.
Built to Last.
Herakon Lab is a Nigerian deep-tech company building AI-powered products and infrastructure for African cities. We develop our own software and embedded systems across agriculture, mobility, identity, health, and security — and we take on select client engagements that fund and sharpen our core capabilities. We are building the technology layer that African cities will run on.
How We Work
We employ a sustainable, product-first commercial model. Rather than relying on traditional startup fundraising cycles, we fund our long-term R&D through high-end engineering services.
Build-Own-Products
We engineer proprietary software and hardware intellectual property. These platforms solve acute structural bottlenecks in transit, farming networks, and digital identity across African municipalities.
Capability Sharpening
We consult on complex engineering pipelines for select external organizations. Delivering these high-stakes enterprise projects ensures our technology stays tested, robust, and aligned with market needs.
Our Capabilities
We possess core competencies in the engineering layers critical to physical-digital systems.
AI & Machine Learning
Training custom neural architectures for resource-constrained edge hardware, low-bandwidth data feeds, and localized agricultural prediction tasks.
GIS & Geospatial Analysis
Processing multi-spectral satellite imagery and building dynamic spatial maps for agricultural intelligence and transport route optimizations.
Embedded Systems & IoT
Custom PCB layout design, micro-controller low-power cycle management, and telemetry hardware optimized for challenging Nigerian power grids.
Cybersecurity & Identity
Developing sovereign cryptographic authentication schemes and conducting deep penetration audits for critical enterprise/government systems.
Capacity Development
Rigorous technical training academies preparing the next generation of systems engineers for production deployment.
Our Work
A selection of custom systems, telemetry monitors, and infrastructure components developed by our team.
SkyNet GIS
A real-time satellite imagery processing platform for agricultural monitoring and yield mapping.
Nexus Core
Distributed server management system with autonomous scaling and healing capabilities for edge computing.
Pulse-X
Ultra-low power heart rate monitor with sub-millisecond precision and Bluetooth 5.0 telemetry.
Lumina UI
A futuristic component library optimized for technical dashboards, live data visualizations, and telemetry monitors.
Our Products
We own and operate proprietary technology platforms that address agriculture, transit routing, and municipal accounting across the continent.
