Verified Nigerian food market price panel

Verified Nigerian food market price panel: 49 tracked food items with market-by-market prices and 90 days of history each, built on a source-traceable collection model where every published figure links back to the specific market page and source. Units are kept in authentic local form (per 'painter', per 100kg bag, per 1kg, per basket) rather than normalised away. Derived layers: fortnightly median price-movement indices computed only across markets reporting in both periods (a survivorship-honest construction), and inter-state dispersion (the same item differing by thousands of naira between states). Plus a community Q&A layer where questions are answered by people who were physically at the market that week.

Dataset card

Type: not stated
Format: Tabular market×item×price×date records rendered per market and per item, with per-figure provenance links; plus derived fortnightly median-change indices and a text Q&A corpus in Nigerian Pidgin and English. Bulk access, historical series and API integration are explicitly offered.
Volume: Stated and modest: 49 items × 90 days of history across a fixed and undisclosed number of covered markets. If 30-60 markets are covered, that is roughly 130,000-265,000 price observations in the archive — small as data goes, but each row carries a provenance link, which is what makes it defensible. Volume grows linearly with time and market additions.
Users: Est. under 5,000 (free to use, no card required, a young product with 90 days of history and a community board showing 2-4 answers per thread — so engagement is currently thin)
History: not stated
Update frequency: not stated
Growth: Active and newly launched — ArketAI is flagged 'New', history is capped at 90 days consistent with a recent start, and the site advertises a live fortnightly index plus a growing community board; no signs of stagnation
Launched: ~2026 (the site holds exactly 90 days of history, ArketAI is labelled 'New', and the 90-day window is best read as the platform's own lifetime rather than a truncated archive)
