Limestone situated in Lagos, Nigeria, is a leading African platform for community and facility management and has announced the acquisition of Oxypu, an artificial intelligence driven CRM and operational intelligence company, in a strategic move aimed at redefining how communities are managed across the continent.  The acquisition brings Oxypu’s technology and team fully into the Limestone ecosystem and marks the official launch of Limestone AI, a new intelligence layer designed to power smarter, safer, and more automated community operations. The move strengthens Limestone’s long-term mission to improve how people live and work in African estates, residential communities, and managed facilities.  With the integration, Limestone is positioning itself as a category leader in intelligent community infrastructure combining security, operations, and communication with advanced AI-driven decision-making.  Why Limestone Acquired Oxypu  According to Limestone, the decision to acquire Oxypu followed extensive market analysis that revealed Oxypu’s AI capabilities created significantly for more impact when embedded directly into a vertical platform like Limestone, rather than operating as a standalone horizontal CRM product.  By consolidating both platforms, Limestone aims to accelerate innovation while delivering deeper value to estate managers, property developers, and facility teams.  “This is not a retreat; it’s a concentration of strength,” said Mr. Ifeanyi Aneke, Managing Director and CEO of Limestone. “Oxypu built an exceptional intelligence engine, and we are incredibly proud to welcome their team and technology fully into the Limestone family by unifying our products and teams, therefore creating a clear category leader. Limestone AI will set a new standard for secure, intelligent, and hyper-efficient community operations in Africa.”  “This is not a retreat; it’s a concentration of strength,” said Mr. Ifeanyi Aneke, Managing Director and CEO of Limestone. “Oxypu built an exceptional intelligence engine, and we are incredibly proud to welcome their team and technology fully into the Limestone family by unifying our products and teams, therefore creating a clear category leader.
