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

Reskin is an AI powered platform that helps African merchants transform generic product photos from global marketplaces like Alibaba into personalized marketing visuals that better reflect African identities, lifestyles and environments. By combining the original product image with AI-powered image generation, Reskin allows merchants to customize models, appearances and settings while preserving the product's key features. With no advanced design skills required, businesses can create engaging visuals for their online stores and social media campaigns. Reskin aims to make digital commerce more inclusive by helping African businesses create marketing content that connects with their local audiences.

Although it addressed a real need, we decided to focus on a more specific and underserved problem in Africa: the lack of localized product marketing visuals for African merchants. This led us to create Reskin, a project focused on addressing an important need in the African digital commerce ecosystem.
