Sensorit Group develops advanced technologies that help governments, enterprises, and communities understand, optimise, and modernise the systems that power society. From intelligent infrastructure and industrial AI to digital payments, mobility, and sensing technologies, we build solutions that create measurable impact at scale.
Sensorit Group is an African deep technology company focused on solving large-scale infrastructure, mobility, financial inclusion, and industrial intelligence challenges.
We develop technologies that help organisations move from reactive operations to intelligent, data-driven decision making — combining disciplines that rarely sit under one roof.
Sensorit Group sits at the centre of a network of specialist companies, each solving a distinct problem and feeding intelligence back into the wider group.
Helping road agencies optimise maintenance spending and improve road safety.
Delivering real-time situational awareness and intelligent sensing for smart cities.
Expanding access to financial services across Africa.
Connecting institutions, merchants, and consumers on one payments backbone.
Building the digital operating system for African students.
Creating technologies that support a more sustainable future.
Turning everyday spending into social discovery and rewards across local economies.
Each capability is built to integrate with the others — sensing feeds analytics, analytics informs payments, payments inform identity.
Successfully piloted on public roads and transportation networks, automatically detecting potholes, cracks, road markings, and road furniture using AI and edge computing.
Computer vision and edge computing identify road markings, signage, and furniture across entire networks — turning routine surveys into continuous, automated monitoring.
Digital payment technologies enabling access to banking and merchant services — wallets, card issuing, and social grant disbursement built for first-time digital users.
Optimisation systems that monitor plant performance continuously, surfacing anomalies before they become downtime.
Sensorit works closely with researchers, engineers, universities, and industry experts to transform emerging technologies into deployable solutions.
Applied models for detection, prediction, and decision support.
Monitoring and optimising the systems that keep cities running.
Understanding how people and goods move across networks.
Sensing that performs in heat, dust, and darkness alike.
Rails built for the realities of African payments infrastructure.
Materials science for sustainability and industrial resilience.
Sensorit Group is led by a team with deep technical, financial, and commercial experience across African infrastructure, technology, and academic research.
FOUNDER // 001
Aubrey is a South African technology entrepreneur and founder of Sensorit Group. He built his first company while studying at CPUT, before founding Data-Set Connection UG in Germany and co-founding Swissmic in Switzerland, working alongside research partners Fraunhofer IPK and Freie Universität Berlin. Today, he leads Sensorit's innovation across AI, fintech, intelligent sensing, and industrial technologies, while maintaining active research collaborations with the University of Cape Town.
CO-FOUNDER // 002
Sthe brings 18+ years of experience across the African investment landscape, with board-level leadership spanning multiple organisations and an education from the London School of Economics, Harvard Business School, and the University of Cape Town. He currently chairs MediGrow, leads 83 Capital as CEO, and serves on the board of the African Unicorns Institute.
FINANCE // 003
Ntokozo brings 16+ years of experience in corporate governance, public finance, and audit — beginning his career at Deloitte and serving as Chief Internal Auditor at the Independent Police Investigative Directorate before becoming CFO of the 83 Group. At Sensorit, he applies that institutional rigour to financial strategy, reporting, and governance across the group.
CTO // 004
A professor at the University of Cape Town, Dr Paine brings peer-reviewed research in sensing and applied AI directly into Sensorit's engineering roadmap — closing the gap between academic frontier work and production-grade systems deployed at national scale.
Sensorit exists to build those capabilities — for governments, infrastructure operators, financial institutions, and industrial organisations across Africa and beyond.
