iElect is an African election-technology company building the digital infrastructure that credible democracies increasingly require. Its production platform, ERMS, manages the full life-cycle of a national election — from polling-unit configuration through agent onboarding to national result publication — across 176,846 polling units and up to 200,000 concurrent field officers on election day. Alongside ERMS, iElect is developing VESR (a virtual election situation room that replaces the physical command centre used by election commissions, observers, and security agencies), Watch the Votes (a citizen parallel-count app that uses AI-assisted data extraction and community consensus to verify official results), the iElect Social Platform (a pan-African civic-engagement platform currently in concept phase and targeted at 54 African nations), and PartyOS (a SaaS platform for political-party membership, governance, and compliance reporting). iElect operates on a principle of accountable-by-design engineering: every page of this public site cites its sources, every product surface carries an honest maturity label, and core libraries are written to be independently audited. The company is compliant with Nigeria’s NDPR framework and the EU’s GDPR for partner data, and targets Level AA under WCAG 2.2 on every digital surface it ships. Its customers and deployment partners include INEC, EU-SDGN, Nigerian security agencies, NDI, and a growing list of civil-society organisations across the continent. Founded in Lagos, iElect maintains a distributed engineering and policy team across Africa and Europe.
