Skye Africa Intelligence Develops SafariOS Concierge for Tanzanian Tourism

Brand Engagement Network Inc., a company that develops secure, enterprise-grade artificial intelligence for the engagement layer of AI, has announced that its subsidiary, Skye Africa Intelligence, has been commissioned to develop a conversational AI concierge for the hospitality and visitor services sector in Tanzania. The project, named SafariOS, is set to transform the visitor economy in East Africa.

Skye, a company that applies conversational AI to hospitality, health, and public-sector services in Africa, has taken on the task of building the SafariOS platform. The project is a significant step for the tourism industry in Tanzania, as it aims to enhance the visitor experience through advanced technology. The work was commissioned by an established Tanzanian tourism business owned by Ernest Magesa, who sees the project as a valuable addition to the region's hospitality landscape.

The SafariOS platform will initially focus on hotel guest assistance, offering services such as property information, housekeeping and room-service requests, dining and transport guidance, and a seamless path to human assistance when needed. Additional visitor-journey connections will be integrated as participating businesses come on board, ensuring a comprehensive and personalized experience for all visitors.

The project is particularly timely, given the upcoming AFCON PAMOJA 2027, which will be jointly hosted by Tanzania, Kenya, and Uganda from 19 June to 17 July 2027. This event is expected to draw significant visitor traffic, making SafariOS well-positioned to provide support and enhance the overall visitor experience.

Brand Engagement Network Inc. is providing the underlying conversational AI technology for SafariOS. Tyler Luck, the CEO of Brand Engagement Network, stated, "SafariOS puts conversational concierge technology to work in Tanzania's visitor economy. Skye runs the build, and BEN supplies the technology and remains a shareholder."

The development of SafariOS is part of Brand Engagement Network Inc.'s broader strategy to expand its AI offerings into new markets. The company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and subsequent Form 10-Q and Form 8-K filings will provide further details on the project's progress and potential impact on the company's financials.

Skye Africa Intelligence, a majority-held subsidiary of Valio Technologies, is leading the development of SafariOS. The project is an independent commercial endeavor and is not an official CAF or AFCON product. Revenue generated by SafariOS, if and when earned, will not be reflected in Brand Engagement Network Inc.'s financial statements unless separately contracted.

The project is expected to benefit the tourism industry in Tanzania by providing advanced technology solutions that can improve the visitor experience. As the project progresses, it is anticipated that SafariOS will become a key player in the region's hospitality sector, contributing to the growth and development of the tourism industry in East Africa.
