Saskia — Real-time event telemetry and autonomous agentic growth for East Africa’s creative economy.
# 🎬 Saskia: Real-Time Event Telemetry & Autonomous Agentic Growth for East Africa’s Creative Economy
> **Saskia** is an autonomous Studio Director AI engine designed for East Africa's rapidly expanding creative economy (Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu, Kampala, Dar es Salaam). Combining **ClickHouse** sub-second OLAP telemetry with **Google Gemini** structured function calling, Saskia continuously monitors ticket sales velocity, radio airplay, and social sentiment to autonomously dispatch dynamic pricing adjustments, hyper-targeted regional promo campaigns, and critical production alerts.

## 🌟 The Problem & Opportunity
East Africa's creative economy is booming—from sold-out festivals like *Blankets & Wine* and *Sol Fest* to chart-topping Gengetone and Afropop airplay. However, event organizers, record labels, and festival producers face critical operational bottlenecks:
1. **Blindspot Ticketing Drop-offs:** Organizers don't realize high-margin VIP tiers are lagging until days before the event.
2. **Fragmented Regional Airplay:** Radio and social sentiment data across Kenyan and regional channels (Radio Maisha, Classic 105, TikTok KE) are siloed.
3. **Delayed Interventions:** Pricing adjustments and promotional campaigns are manual, reactive, and often too late.
**Saskia solves this with autonomous real-time intelligence:**
- Ingests high-throughput telemetry into **ClickHouse** with sub-millisecond aggregations.
- Evaluates live friction and anomaly signals using **Gemini**.
- Autonomously executes dynamic interventions via direct tool calling.
