The challenge
Most couples apps are written for other cultures. Their questions skip the in-laws, the dowry, faith or money in a West African household, and their prices assume a credit card. Minanté starts from the conversations couples here actually need to have.
What we built
Themed collections of cards and a set of games for two, written for that context. One partner can answer a sealed card and the other reveals it later, together or apart. Minanté runs today as a mobile-first web app that works offline, with a native app for iOS and Android under way.

Inside the product
-
01
Collections, not a random deck
From first steps to “are we ready for marriage?”, each collection is a path of questions on one theme.
-
02
Games played as two
Would you rather, guess my answer, which of us two: each partner answers alone, and the app reveals both answers together.
-
03
One subscription, two partners
Minanté+ covers both partners and is priced in CFA francs.

04
Works without a connection
A progressive web app that keeps working offline, with native iOS and Android apps in development.
