The recognition places the company among businesses acknowledged for innovation, scalability and institutional impact.

SimplifiedIQ operates at the intersection of education technology, workforce certification and regulatory compliance, providing systems designed to safeguard trust across high-stakes decision environments.

The company focuses on ensuring that assessments are secure, processes are auditable, and records are verifiable, addressing long-standing challenges around credibility and accountability across Africa’s institutional ecosystems.

Established to respond to inefficiencies in manual assessments and fragmented certification workflows, SimplifiedIQ delivers an end-to-end integrity platform that supports secure exam delivery, automated grading and traceable audit processes.

According to the company, its systems are designed to produce defensible outcomes that institutions can verify, defend and transfer across regulatory and professional contexts.

The company’s solutions include tamper-proof examination delivery with full session monitoring, automated and explainable grading for essays, multiple-choice questions, coding challenges and paper-based exams, as well as digital certification and compliance systems that issue verifiable records.

Its Scan-to-Grade technology converts handwritten scripts into digitally graded and traceable results, bridging Africa’s paper-first assessment environment with modern integrity standards.

SimplifiedIQ also provides audit-ready dashboards and reporting tools that support accreditation, regulatory oversight and institutional compliance.

These capabilities are intended to reduce disputes, improve processing efficiency and strengthen confidence in assessment and certification outcomes.

The company works with organisations responsible for high-stakes professional, regulatory and workforce decisions. Its partners include the Chartered Institute of Project Management of Nigeria (CIPMN), Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency (LASEPA) and SeamlessHR, reflecting its application across education, regulation and corporate hiring environments.

SimplifiedIQ was founded by Sam Obi, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, who leads the company’s strategy and product vision.

According to the company, its mission is to design and scale intelligent systems that make assessments, certifications and compliance processes tamper-proof, automated and verifiable across Africa.
