## About the product

Plaqad is a web-based AI communications intelligence and operations suite for corporate communications teams, PR agencies, and brands monitoring African media, with a strong focus on Nigerian press and broadcast coverage.

Key capabilities across the Intelligence Suite include:

- **Real-time media monitoring (Plaqad IQ)** across **14+ channels** (press, broadcast, digital, social), surfacing **brand signals**, **emerging crises**, and **competitive narratives** as they appear
- **Market intelligence (Plaqad Scout)**, producing **analyst-grade briefings** on what the market is saying, and **Plaqad OS**, which draws on BHM's own communications intelligence for strategic guidance
- **Briefing automation (Plaqad BA)** to manage brief creation, review, and approvals through structured workflows instead of email threads
- **Content and social operations** through **Plaqad Studio** (create, approve, and distribute content, with AI-assisted expansion from a single concept via Studio Plus) and **Plaqad Intel** (listen, publish, and engage across social platforms in one workspace)
- **Plaqad PA**, an AI assistant for calendars, contracts, and scheduling that connects to Google Workspace, plus **Plaqad Talent** for sourcing communications talent across pan-Africa and **Plaqad People** for answering HR questions from an organization's own policy documents

Available on **Web** (browser).

Built for **in-house communications and brand teams**, **PR agencies**, and **enterprises** operating in Nigeria and across pan-Africa, including teams responsible for reputation monitoring, crisis response, stakeholder communications, and content approvals.

Notable in the African market context for its **context-trained AI** tuned to African media dynamics, plus a security posture that includes **zero-retention with AI model providers**, **NDPR alignment**, **role-scoped access**, and a **full audit trail**. Plaqad was built by **BlackHouse Media (BHM)**, a Nigeria- and UK-based PR firm founded by **Ayeni Adekunle** with roughly two decades of African communications experience; client brands referenced on its site include **MTN, DStv, Nigerian Breweries, Flour Mills of Nigeria, FCMB**, and **The Macallan**. Pricing is **paid**, with a **Pay-As-You-Go** model at **$0.01 per credit** shared across products (from **$20/month** for 2,000 credits), an **IQ Starter** plan at **$1/month**, and **Enterprise/Custom** options for SSO, integrations, and contracted terms.
