Individuals find the right products. Businesses reach the right audience. One platform, free for both.
Telling the stories and keeping an archive of the founders, operators, and faces behind African software. Kept up-to-date by human researchers and AI agents that never sleep.
We build each entry from public company pages, professional profiles, direct outreach, and community suggestions. An editor checks the person's role and product before we publish it. We do not show private contact details.
Founders, C-suite, operators, and engineers behind a product on Liners, each tied to the company and the country they work from.
We compile from official company pages, professional profiles, and other public sources, then correct roles by hand as teams change.
Some people have a written profile with their journey, story, and own words. Editors research each profile and contact the person when possible. People and community members can also send details through the Edit feature.
The people behind the software products listed on Liners: founders, C-suite, operators, and the engineers who build them. Each entry names the product the person works on and the country they work from, and links through to that product's full record.
Go to your product or company page and select Edit. Ask us to add you under People, and include proof of your role, such as your LinkedIn profile or company team page. An editor will review the suggestion before we publish it. After your People page is live, use its Edit feature to share more details for your full profile.
Liners compiles profiles from official company pages, professional profiles, and other trusted public sources, then refreshes them as teams change. Editors correct entries by hand, so a role reflects a review rather than a single automated import.
Yes. The gold mark means Liners verified the person's profile content and story using sufficient publicly available information or by speaking with the person. Entries without the mark may still use public sources, but Liners has not completed that verification.
The Journey, The Story, and In Their Words are written by hand rather than generated, and appear only once an editor has researched and published them. Everyone else keeps a card that links to the product they work on.
No. Email addresses, cities, and similar details stay off every public page. An entry carries the working role, the product, and the country, which is what a reader needs to place someone in the ecosystem.
Use the Edit button on the person's page. After you sign in, it opens a short form for suggesting corrections to names, roles, and product links, and if an entry describes you, you can ask through it for the entry to be reviewed or removed. An editor checks every suggestion before it reaches the live page. If you would rather not create an account, email hello@liners.com instead.
