Afia.day

Afia is an accessible, agentic commerce platform that lets shoppers find and purchase products through natural conversation.

Instead of browsing multiple storefronts, comparing prices, filling lengthy checkout forms, and manually handling payment details, a shopper simply tells Afia what they need:

“Find me the cheapest unscented face cream under 2 USA₮ and order it.”

Afia searches products from independent merchants, compares available offers, selects the best-priced option, explains its decision, and prepares the order. The shopper connects a Celo wallet, provides a delivery address only when necessary, and signs an x402 USA₮ payment authorization directly in their wallet. Celo’s x402 facilitator then settles the payment from the shopper to the selected merchant, while Afia generates a downloadable receipt.

Afia is designed to support both physical and digital products, including cosmetics, furniture, agricultural produce, household essentials, business resources, and downloadable products. Merchants can create accounts, connect their Celo wallets through WalletConnect, customize their storefront, publish products, set USA₮ prices, and manage inventory.

The platform’s main advantage is agentic purchasing. Afia does not simply display a product catalog; it interprets the shopper’s intent, searches across multiple stores, compares offers, chooses according to a stated goal such as lowest price, and completes the purchase flow. Future ranking improvements will include product reviews, quality signals, delivery times, and merchant reliability.

Afia also focuses on accessibility. Blind and visually impaired shoppers can interact with the platform through conversational input rather than visually navigating complex ecommerce interfaces. Voice input can be added later, allowing users to search and purchase products hands-free.

For the Celo USA₮ with x402 track, Afia demonstrates:

• Real commerce between independent shoppers and merchants.
• USA₮-denominated product prices.
• x402 payment authorization and facilitator settlement.
• Multi-merchant product comparison.
• Repeat purchases from the same merchant.
• Gasless wallet-based checkout.
• Instant digital product delivery and physical product ordering.
• A reusable storefront system for different merchant categories.

In one sentence:

Afia is a conversational, accessible shopping agent that compares products across independent Celo merchants and completes USA₮ purchases through x402.
