Knowledge engineering studio

Solutions built around your knowledge
platforms, data models and publishing

We turn your knowledge, data and content into platforms, tools, applications, books and games.

Talk about your project Learn how we work

Projects, initiatives, researchers, teachers, publishers, SMEs, associations and pan-African or international organisations: we help you move from raw material to digital systems that last.

Domains & offerings

Products, platforms and content rooted in the real world

We start from your data to design knowledge models, digital systems and editorial derivatives that can evolve over time.

Knowledge products

Structuring your content so it becomes usable, shareable and sustainable.

Human and social sciences, technical fields, archives, professional documentation, languages and scripts.
Design of data models for corpora, catalogues, learning content or research collections.
Shaping heritage, knowledge and practices that are often little or poorly represented in mainstream tools (languages, endogenous scripts, traditions, local sciences, etc.).

Platforms & digital tools

Designing the technical layers that make your content live: platforms, tools and interfaces.

Learning platforms, document bases, member areas, business tools or service portals.
Tailor-made sites, applications and interfaces, with editorial back-offices, dashboards and contribution spaces.
Extensible architectures ready to power other interfaces and derivatives (APIs, mobile or desktop apps, automations, exports to other systems).

Publishing, derivative content & games

Bringing your data to life in books, workbooks, interactive resources and, when relevant, games.

Books, workbooks, exercise sheets, learning materials and printable resources generated from your data.
Scripts and pipelines to InDesign and other publishing tools to produce catalogues, activity books, collections or automated series.
Generation of interactive content and games (quizzes, puzzles, crosswords, etc.) from sorted, combined or enriched data.

How we work

A complete pipeline: data → models → systems → derivatives

Instead of multiplying one-off projects, we design a foundation that serves your platforms, course materials, publishing and future applications.

Map your content and data
We start from what you already have (databases, files, field notes, manuscripts, recordings, archives, business content) or we help you create a structured base when none exists yet. We clarify structures, uses, target formats and audiences.
Design a model usable in the long term
We design reusable data schemas (corpora, records, listings, learning content, catalogues, lexicons, etc.) and install them in manageable environments (MySQL/SQL, structured files, APIs, data stores). The goal: a stable, extensible and documented foundation.
Build the platform and tools
We develop the systems that leverage this foundation: platforms, back-offices, consultation interfaces, internal tools, e-commerce or business applications. When it makes sense, we also prepare the building blocks for mobile or desktop apps.
Derive books, resources and applications
From the same data, we produce books and workbooks, printable resources, interactive content and applications (mobile, web or desktop). Scripts (JSX, Java, C++, etc.) can automatically generate puzzles, quizzes, course materials or other derivatives.

Signature ecosystems

Some foundations already in place

Projects where a single data foundation feeds platforms, learning content, publishing and other digital experiences.

Platform · Courses & content

Longoka

An application for courses, articles, books, stationery and educational products, from tradition to tech, around languages, scripts and knowledge.

Example of a platform where content is structured to be reusable in course materials, publishing and other digital experiences.

Knowledge product · Lexicon

Lexikongo

Lexical platform focused on Kikongo, multilingual (FR, EN, ES, PT, IT, RU, ZH) and designed as an extensible model for other languages.

Shows how a well-designed lexical engine can be adapted for other languages or projects (for example a future LexiSwahili).

Knowledge product · Lexicon

Lexilingala

Sister platform dedicated to Lingala, built on the same foundation as Lexikongo and translated into several languages.

Illustrates fast localisation: same codebase, same data model, new audiences and new languages.

Platform · Memory & announcements

Madizi

Application for obituaries and family or professional remembrance, available in French, English, Spanish and Portuguese.

Example of an editorial system where notices, tributes and related content are structured for consultation, search and reuse.

Who we work with

From local knowledge to global systems

We support people and teams who carry knowledge, memory, a language, an expertise or a mission to transmit, and who need solid digital engineering to shape it.

Projects, initiatives & learning structures

Course platforms, exercise spaces, printable resources and interactive content for pupils, students, trainers and teaching teams.

Researchers, anthropologists & labs

Valuing field corpora, audio/video archives, survey data and notes through consultable platforms, navigation tools and dissemination supports.

Authors, publishers & publishing houses

Structuring content, pipelines to books and collections, activity workbooks, article collections and digital extensions around your catalogues.

SMEs, associations, NGOs & pan-African or international initiatives

Platforms and systems centred on your activities, communities and business knowledge, with concrete tools for your teams and audiences.
