Built at Meta Global AI Developer Hackathon · Oct 26, 2026 · Remote

Explain Naija is an AI-powered information accessibility platform designed to help everyday Nigerians understand complex public information without struggling with technical language or complicated documents. Government announcements, grant opportunities, official notices and public policies often contain important information that many people find difficult to understand. Explain Naija addresses this challenge by transforming complicated information into simple, understandable and actionable explanations. Users can upload PDF, DOCX and TXT documents or paste text directly into the platform. The system generates structured explanations covering the main message, who is affected, recommended next steps, important dates and unclear information. Users can also select from five language options: Simple English, Nigerian Pidgin, Yoruba, Hausa and Igbo. An audio playback feature further improves accessibility by allowing users to listen to generated explanations. Explain Naija is built with Next.js, TypeScript and Tailwind CSS, with Meta Muse Spark powering its AI explanation capabilities. Our goal is simple: make important information easier to understand and more accessible to everyone. Big information. Made simple.
