NGX Pulse

NGX Pulse is a Nigerian stock market data and intelligence platform. It was launched in early 2026 as a service that tracks listed equities on the Nigerian Exchange (NGX) and the NASD OTC market, offering price data, analytics and insights through a fast, modern interface. The platform was created to address a long-standing problem in Nigerian investing: quality, timely market data had historically been expensive, fragmented and poorly presented, leaving retail investors without the kind of institutional-grade information that professional funds take for granted. NGX Pulse launched with stock tracking, heatmap visualisation and API access for the Nigerian Exchange. Through mid-2026 the product expanded quickly: a portfolio tracker, dividend calendar and comparison tools went live, and the Mansafolio mobile app shipped on iOS and Android. Coverage was extended to the NASD OTC market, and additional features such as Whale Watch, order-book pressure indicators and the Ask Kobo assistant followed. By that point the platform tracked 192 securities — 147 on the NGX and 45 on the NASD OTC — with a 20-minute refresh cycle and a stated 99.9% uptime, serving more than 2,400 active users. In August 2026 the product was rebranded from NGX Pulse to Kobo Terminal, moving to a new home at koboterminal.com. The company described the change as giving the platform "a name of our own," while keeping the same data and the same team. Under the Kobo Terminal name the service offers a daily market wrap, a live corporate disclosures feed covering earnings releases, board notices, dividend updates and market-sensitive corporate actions, and a developer API used by fintechs and AI assistants. The platform positions itself as accessible and design-led: a free tier for everyone, no paywalls on basic market data, and professional terminal aesthetics. Its stated ambition is to become "the Bloomberg Terminal of West Africa," serving retail investors, financial advisors and institutions with the data they need. NGX Pulse is therefore best understood as the original brand identity of a Nigerian market-data platform that now operates as Kobo Terminal.

NGX Pulse was launched in early 2026 as a Nigerian stock market data and intelligence platform. Its founding premise was that the Nigerian stock market, one of the most exciting in Africa, suffered from expensive, fragmented and poorly presented data. NGX Pulse set out to provide institutional-grade market data with a consumer-grade experience, tracking every listed equity on the Nigerian Exchange and the NASD OTC market with 30-minute delayed price data, analytics and insights. The initial release included stock tracking, heatmap visualisation and API access for the Nigerian Exchange. Through mid-2026 the platform broadened its feature set: a portfolio tracker, dividend calendar and comparison tools went live, and the Mansafolio mobile app shipped on iOS and Android. Coverage was extended to the NASD OTC market, and Whale Watch, order-book pressure indicators and the Ask Kobo assistant were added. By this stage the platform reported tracking 192 securities — 147 on the NGX and 45 on the NASD OTC — with a 20-minute refresh cycle, 99.9% uptime and more than 2,400 active users. In August 2026, NGX Pulse was rebranded to Kobo Terminal, with a new home at koboterminal.com. The company framed the change as giving the platform "a name of our own," while emphasising continuity: same data, same team. Under the new identity the service continued to offer 192 tracked securities across NGX and NASD, a daily market wrap, and a developer API used by fintechs and AI assistants. The platform also operates a live corporate disclosures desk covering earnings releases, board notices, dividend updates and market-sensitive corporate actions from listed companies on the Nigerian Exchange. NGX Pulse thus represents the first chapter of a Nigerian market-intelligence venture that now trades under the Kobo Terminal brand, with the stated vision of becoming the Bloomberg Terminal of West Africa for retail investors, financial advisors and institutions.
