Pan-African partnership integrates strategy and execution into a seamless “Plan-to-Build” workflow for entrepreneurs across the continent
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia & Johannesburg, South Africa, April 22, 2026 – Gebeya Inc., the pan-African Al technology company behind Dala Studio, and PROFF-IT Investment Group (Pty) Ltd, trading as VukaOS, today announced a strategic alliance to transform how African startups are conceived, built, and scaled.
The partnership integrates VukaOS, an Al-driven Ideation and Go-to-Market (GTM) engine, as a core module within Dala Studio, Africa’s all-in-one Al-powered creator platform. Together, they create a seamless “Plan-to-Build” workflow: entrepreneurs use VukaOS to validate ideas and develop strategies, then execute directly into Dala Studio to build apps, websites, games, comics, music, videos, and Al agents using natural language. No coding required.
“This alliance closes the critical gap between business planning and technical execution,” said Amadou Daffe, CEO of Gebeya Inc. “African entrepreneurs no longer have to jump between tools or hire expensive developers to test their ideas. With VukaOS handling strategy and Dala Studio handling creation, founders can move from concept to launch faster than ever before.”
“African entrepreneurs have never lacked ideas. They have lacked a unified system to take those ideas from strategy to execution,” said Nico Kruger, Group Managing Director of PROFF-IT (VukaOS). “By embedding VukaOS inside Dala Studio, we are giving founders a deterministic engine to qualify for success. This is not just another tool. It is a new way to build African businesses.”
The alliance establishes a long-term collaboration between the two companies, including joint go-to-market activities, shared strategic alignment, mutual promotion, and exploration of commercial opportunities arising from the integrated offering.
