Frequently Asked Questions

What is MaishaThabiti?

MaishaThabiti is a Kenya-first knowledge and decision-intelligence platform. It organises practical information about opportunities, careers, work, skills, training, qualifications, financial choices, programmes, providers and other decision-relevant subjects so users can explore, compare and act with better context.

Is MaishaThabiti just another information website?

No. Articles and guides are useful, but the longer-term system is structured around distinct entities, evidence, dated knowledge records and decision logic. That structure is intended to support discovery, comparisons, relationships and explainable decision tools rather than only static pages.

Who is MaishaThabiti for?

It is for people making consequential choices in Kenya, including students and families, workers and professionals, entrepreneurs, people changing careers or income strategies, and anyone comparing services, programmes, providers or financial options.

Where does the information come from?

Depending on the claim, sources can include government and regulatory bodies, universities and training institutions, professional bodies, providers, original research, datasets, technical publications and credible independent reporting. Community experience may also provide context where lived experience matters.

How current is the information?

It varies by subject. MaishaThabiti is designed to preserve source and date context so that freshness can be judged, but no knowledge base is instantly current everywhere. Fees, deadlines, rates, vacancies, laws, programme availability and eligibility rules should be verified with the responsible source before you act.

What happens when information is missing?

Missing information is treated as a gap to research, not as permission to invent an answer. A subject can remain partially complete if the information that is present is useful and properly qualified.

Does MaishaThabiti use artificial intelligence?

AI may assist with discovery, structuring, extraction, comparison, drafting and quality checks. AI output is not treated as the source of truth. Important claims should be grounded in appropriate evidence, and automated work should remain within validation and review controls.

Does MaishaThabiti make decisions for me?

No. Decision tools can help you understand fit, trade-offs and next steps based on the information you provide and the knowledge available. The final decision remains yours, and regulated or high-stakes matters may require confirmation or professional advice.

Can a provider pay to be ranked first?

Commercial relationships should not determine factual conclusions or independent rankings. Sponsored, promoted, affiliate or paid relationships should be distinguishable from ordinary editorial and knowledge content. See Advertising & Commercial Relationships.

What if I find an error?

Please report it. The Corrections Policy explains what information helps us investigate an issue and how corrections are assessed.

Is MaishaThabiti professional advice?

No. It is an information and decision-support resource. For legal, medical, financial, tax, investment, licensing or other regulated matters, seek qualified advice or an official determination where appropriate.
