Who it's for

Solo builder selling to African music producers, podcast creators, and independent filmmakers who need to catalog, organize and distribute their work across platforms

How to build it

1. Build a lightweight web dashboard that lets creators upload metadata (title, tags, credits, rights info) and connect it to their existing cloud storage (Google Drive, Dropbox) 2. Create an API layer that auto-generates multiple format exports and distribution packages (Spotify-ready, YouTube-ready, podcast feed-ready) 3. Add a simple revenue tracker that shows which platforms/stores are paying out for their content 4. Integrate with 2-3 local payment rails (Paystack, Flutterwave) so creators see earnings in NGN without friction 5. Start with one creator vertical (Afrobeats producers or podcast creators) and charge monthly; expand to others once you have 50 paying users

Your edge as a builder from anywhere

Most existing library tools are built for enterprise workflows. You can build lean, mobile-friendly, and Nigeria-first with local payment rails baked in from day one. Creators in Lagos, Accra, Nairobi earn in hard currency but need to convert easily — you solve that. Also: your hosting cost and build speed beat European competitors; you can ship faster and iterate based on real African creator fee
