The loss is already happening. It is just not written down.

You cannot dispute what was never recorded. Every unlogged issue, unexplained variance and undocumented write-off is a decision someone else made on your behalf.

5%
of annual revenue lost to occupational fraud

On ₦2bn of revenue that is ₦100m a year — ₦8.3m for every month you keep waiting.

90%
of fraud cases involve asset misappropriation

Not clever accounting. Physical things — drums, bags, litres — leaving without a record.

₦1.72tn
raw-material imports, H1 2025

Every kilogram is FX-exposed. Shrinkage is no longer a rounding error — it is your margin.

Sources: ACFE, Occupational Fraud 2026: A Report to the Nations; Manufacturers Association of Nigeria, H1 2025. Figures are industry-wide, not guarantees of individual savings.

Your supervisors are not the problem. The absence of a record is.

PlantPulse surfaces evidence, never accusations. It shows variance, anomaly and unresolved movement — and leaves judgement to you.

How it works

Four names on every movement. That is the whole idea.

Requested, approved, issued, received. Nobody approves their own transaction, nothing is ever deleted, and every correction is a new entry that points back at the old one.

Technician recording a reading on the factory floor

Capture where the work happens

Big targets, few fields, no typing where a tap will do. Entries queue offline and sync when the network returns — with the original timestamp intact.

Machine operation on a production line

Downtime that leaves a trail

Start, end, reason, machine. After one month you stop guessing which mixer is costing you shifts — and stop buying a second one to avoid finding out.

Engineer inspecting plant equipment

Delegate without losing control

Managers run their own factory and nothing else. Eight roles, per-site scope, approval limits in Naira. A manager in Ogun has no reach into Lagos.

07:00 every morning

One message. Every factory. Before you finish your coffee.

Production against target, material variance, uptime, attendance, rejections, pending approvals and open incidents — in the same seven blocks, in the same order, every single day. Exceptions marked. Three actions at the bottom.

  1. Critical alerts the moment they happen, not at month-end.
  2. Approve or reject a write-off by replying to the message.
  3. Never more than one alert per five minutes. No storms.

Reply-to-approve is off until you switch it on, runs the same permission checks as the app, and is recorded in the audit trail as a WhatsApp-originated decision.

Why now

Nothing you record today can be recovered retroactively.

An audit trail only reaches back as far as the day you started keeping one. Every shift that closes without a record is a shift you will never be able to question — and the variance you cannot see this month is the same variance you will not see next month.

  1. Day 1Baseline measured: variance, waste, downtime, reporting delay.
  2. Week 1Daily brief starts landing. Managers close shifts on a checklist.
  3. Day 30Improvement shown against your own numbers, not a vendor's.

Priced per site. In Naira. Never per employee.

Above the retail stock apps that have never heard of a BOM. Far below the ERP quotes that arrive with a four-month implementation plan.

Talk to us

Every account starts with a 30-day free trial of the whole product — one factory, up to 5 people, no card. Nothing you record is ever deleted, whatever happens to the plan afterwards. Group is sized against your site count on a scoping call.

Start with one factory. Thirty days. Your own numbers.

We baseline your variance, waste and downtime before anything is installed, deploy only the workflows the pilot needs, and send the owner brief from week one. At day 30 you see the difference in writing.

  • No per-user licences
  • No 16-week implementation
  • Your data exportable at any time
