Apps by industry
The kinds of app we build in Kenya
Nineteen app types we quote for regularly, each with the features that sector actually needs. Your build is scoped from the list below, not from a template.
Delivery and courier apps
Parcel booking, rider assignment, live tracking, delivery photos, and proof of delivery, with a dispatcher dashboard for the office.
Taxi, boda and ride hailing apps
Trip requests, driver matching, fare estimates, in-app M-Pesa payment, and trip history for both rider and driver.
Food ordering and restaurant apps
Menus with photos and options, cart and checkout, kitchen order screens, delivery or pickup, and order status the customer can follow.
E-commerce and retail shopping apps
Product catalogues, variants and stock, M-Pesa checkout, delivery fees by area, and order tracking with automatic receipts.
School and education apps
Fee balances and statements, results and report cards, assignments, announcements, and a parent communication channel.
Healthcare and clinic apps
Appointment booking, patient records, teleconsultation, prescription and visit history, and reminders that cut no-shows.
Church and community apps
Service times, sermon audio and video, giving by M-Pesa, small groups, member directories, and event announcements.
SACCO, chama and welfare apps
Member registers, contributions and arrears, loan applications and repayments, statements, and committee reporting.
Fintech and wallet apps
Wallet balances, M-Pesa deposits and withdrawals, transaction histories, statements, and server-verified payment confirmation.
Real estate and property apps
Listings with photos and maps, viewing requests, rent payment and receipts, tenant maintenance tickets, and landlord reporting.
Hotel, travel and tour booking apps
Availability and rates, bookings with deposits, itineraries, confirmation documents, and guest messaging before arrival.
Events and ticketing apps
Ticket sales by M-Pesa, QR codes for entry, gate check-in that works offline, schedules, and live attendance numbers.
Fitness, sports and wellness apps
GPS activity tracking, training plans, class bookings, progress history, and safety features such as live location sharing.
Agriculture and agribusiness apps
Farm and input records, produce prices, buyer and aggregator matching, collection schedules, and field officer reporting.
Field team and fleet apps
Job dispatch, route and vehicle tracking, checklists and photo evidence, timesheets, and capture that keeps working offline.
Social and community networking apps
Profiles, feeds and posts, direct messaging, groups, notifications, and moderation tools for whoever runs the community.
On-demand services apps
Booking for plumbers, salons, laundry, cleaning and repairs, with provider matching, scheduling, pricing, and ratings.
Insurance and claims apps
Quotes, policy documents, premium payment, claim submission with photos and documents, and claim status tracking.
Enterprise and internal operations apps
Approvals, inventory and asset tracking, stock counts, role-based access, audit trails, and reporting your managers can act on.
Building something not on the list? Most app types share the same foundations, so tell us the workflow and we will scope it.
Get a quote for your appPlatforms and services
Every part of the build, under one team
The app, the server behind it, the dashboard your staff use, and the store listings. One team accountable for all of it, so nothing waits on a third party.
iOS app development
iPhone and iPad builds submitted through App Store review, with the privacy declarations and screenshots Apple asks for.
Cross-platform app development
React Native and Flutter builds that put Android and iOS on one codebase, so you pay once for a feature instead of twice.
Progressive web apps
Installable apps that run in the browser with no store approval, the lightest option when your users are on tight data budgets.
Custom backends and APIs
The server side your app depends on: accounts, data, payment verification, notifications, and integrations with systems you already run.
Admin dashboards and web portals
A browser dashboard for your team to manage users, content, orders, and reports, so routine changes never need a developer.
App rescue and modernisation
We take over stalled, abandoned, or ageing apps: audit the code, get it building again, then modernise it release by release.
Maintenance and support
Store compliance updates, OS version changes, monitoring, and fixes, handled as a monthly arrangement after launch.
What we build with
- React Native
- Flutter
- Kotlin
- Swift
- TypeScript
- Next.js
- Node.js
- PostgreSQL
- Firebase
- Daraja M-Pesa API
- Google Maps
- Docker
We pick the stack from your requirements, not from habit. Where a cross-platform build serves you better than two native ones, we say so, and where it does not, we say that too.
WHY CHOOSE US
What every app build includes
The parts that decide whether an app survives its first year, not just its launch week
Android and iOS from one codebase
Your app looks and behaves like a native app on both platforms, without paying to build and maintain the same product twice.
An admin dashboard you actually run the business from
Every build ships with a browser dashboard for your team, so you are not calling a developer to change a price, a user, or a piece of content.
Built for Kenyan networks and Kenyan phones
Small bundles, offline-tolerant screens, and low data use, because most of your users are on mobile data and mid-range Android devices.
M-Pesa payments that are verified server-side
STK push wired into the app with confirmation checked on the server, never trusting the phone to say a payment succeeded. Already running in production on our own products.
Store submission handled end to end
Listings, screenshots, privacy declarations, signing keys, and review responses. We get the app published, not just built.
Code and accounts stay yours
You get the repository, the deployment setup, and the store listings on final payment. Nothing about your product is locked to us.
Free scoping call
Tell us the app you need and get a fixed price for it.
Bring the idea, the workflow, or the app someone else abandoned. You leave the call with a written scope, a fixed quote, and a delivery date, at no cost and with nothing to sign.
Feature menu
Features you can build into your app
Pick what your app needs during scoping. Each of these is something we have shipped before, so the estimate you get is based on work already done rather than a guess.
M-Pesa payments
STK push with confirmation verified on the server, never trusting the phone.
Card and bank payments
Card checkout and bank transfer options alongside mobile money.
Phone, email and social sign-in
OTP by SMS, email and password, or Google sign-in, with roles and permissions.
Push notifications and SMS
Order updates, reminders, and campaigns, with SMS fallback for offline users.
In-app chat and support
Customer to business messaging, or chat between users, with history kept.
English and Swahili
Multi-language screens so your app reads naturally for every user.
Maps, GPS and live tracking
Routes, distance, live position, and geofencing for deliveries and field teams.
Offline mode and sync
Screens that keep working without signal and sync once the connection returns.
QR and barcode scanning
Ticket check-in, stock counts, and asset tags read straight from the camera.
Ratings, reviews and referrals
Review prompts, star ratings, and referral codes that track who invited whom.
Analytics and reporting
Live dashboards for signups, orders, revenue, and whatever else you measure.
PDF receipts and invoices
Branded receipts and invoices generated automatically and sent to the customer.

Get Custom QuoteOUR PROCESS
How we build your app
Four stages, with the expensive decisions settled before development begins
1
Scope and fixed quote
We map the users, the screens, and the integrations, then agree the feature list in writing so the price and the delivery date are fixed before any code is written.
2
Prototype you can tap through
You review a clickable prototype of the real screens and flows. Changing a decision here costs a conversation, whereas changing it after build costs a sprint.
3
Build, integrate, and test
We develop the app, the admin dashboard, and the APIs together, with payments and third-party integrations tested against real accounts rather than mocks.
4
Publish and hand over
We ship to the Play Store and App Store, hand over the repository and deployment, and stay available for the first release cycle after launch.
Ways to work with us
Pick the engagement model that fits
Most projects run on fixed scope and a fixed price. Where a roadmap keeps moving, a monthly arrangement serves you better, and we will tell you which one your project suits.
Fixed-scope project
We agree the feature list, the price, and the delivery date in writing, then build to it. The commonest way we work.
- Free scoping call and written quote
- Price fixed before development starts
- Deposit to begin, balance against milestones
- Weekly progress reporting
30-day MVP sprint

- Single platform, Android or iOS
- Core feature set and basic dashboard
- Store submission handled for you
- Upgrade path into the Pro plan
Dedicated developer, monthly
Reserve a developer by the month for a roadmap that keeps changing, with priorities you reset every sprint.
- Agreed hours each month
- You set the priorities each sprint
- Direct access to whoever writes the code
- Month to month, no long lock-in
Maintenance and growth retainer
Keep a shipped app healthy: store compliance, OS updates, monitoring, fixes, and a steady trickle of improvements.
- Play Store and App Store compliance
- Crash monitoring and fixes
- Quality checks on real devices
- Small feature work each month
Not sure which model fits? The scoping call is free, and you leave it with a written quote either way.
