Eyewitness

Facebook Messenger bots launched for The Star and Battabox

Eyewitness is a full featured platform for media organisations and brands to engage with their audience through Facebook Messenger and other conversational channels. It provides a turn-key solution for sharing content and collecting stories with images and video. More features are being added all the time.

We have recently received funding from #innovateAfrica to develop an open source version that will enable African journalists to leverage their community on Facebook to gather opinions, tip-offs and quotes. Clients include the South African Public Service Broadcasting Corporation, The Star newspaper in Kenya and Battabox in Nigeria.

If you’re interested in being a pilot customer in Africa, Europe or US please get in touch.
