Capabilities

End-to-end programme management, powered by AI

From programme design to impact reporting, Mothusi automates the operational complexity of running enterprise development programmes so you can focus on the SMEs.

Programme Design

Define structured programme templates with KPIs, milestone gates, funding tranches, and graduation criteria. Mothusi helps you design programmes that are measurable from day one — with built-in reporting hooks and funder-ready metrics.

Cohort Onboarding

Bulk SME onboarding with automated profiling — business details, compliance status, financial baseline, and skills assessment captured conversationally. Each SME is scored at intake so you have a starting benchmark for measuring programme impact.

Fund Management

Milestone-linked disbursement with compliance gates. Funds release automatically when SMEs meet verified milestones and pass compliance checks. Full audit trail for every tranche — who approved, what evidence, when it was paid.

Impact Reporting

DTI-format reports generated automatically from live programme data. Jobs created, revenue growth, compliance improvements, fund utilisation — all pulled directly from the platform. No more spreadsheet consolidation or manual report assembly.

FAQ

Common questions

How quickly can I set up a new programme?
Tell Mothusi the programme objectives, target cohort size, duration, and key milestones — and it creates the full programme structure in minutes. This includes intake criteria, milestone definitions, disbursement schedules, and reporting templates. Most programmes go from concept to ready-for-enrollment in under an hour, compared to weeks of manual setup with spreadsheets and documents.
How does Mothusi handle funder reporting?
Mothusi generates funder reports automatically from live programme data. Ask "Generate the SEFA quarterly report" and it compiles: SMEs enrolled vs target, milestone completion rates, fund utilisation breakdown, at-risk SMEs with intervention status, and impact metrics (jobs created, revenue growth, compliance improvements). Reports match DTI, SEFA, IDC, and other standard formats — or you can specify a custom template.
Can I manage multiple programmes simultaneously?
Yes. Mothusi handles any number of concurrent programmes, each with its own cohorts, milestones, funding pools, and reporting cadence. Ask "Compare the Youth Enterprise Program and Women in Agri performance" and you get a side-by-side analysis. Cross-programme analytics show which programme designs produce the best outcomes, helping you optimise future programmes.
