About Us

We Are Konetos

Not a marketplace. Not a job board. We are the trust infrastructure powering verified craftsmanship across Africa.

Our Mission

Konetos was founded to solve a fundamental problem in Africa's service industry: the trust gap between skilled artisans and clients.

We are building the infrastructure layer that verifies identity, secures payments, and monitors communication — so that every transaction between an artisan and a client is safe, transparent, and successful.

We don't bid for jobs. We don't share phone numbers. We don't take commissions on tips. We engineer trust.

Our Story

Konetos began with a simple observation: talented artisans across Nigeria struggle to find clients who trust them, while clients struggle to find artisans they can rely on.

The problem wasn't a lack of skill — it was a lack of infrastructure. No standardized verification. No secure payment system. No accountability.

We built Konetos to be that infrastructure. Today, thousands of verified artisans and satisfied clients use our platform every day, with millions of Naira securely processed through our escrow system.
