Software built for how Kenya actually works.
Digital Platforms designs and builds mobile-first apps, M-Pesa payments and field data tools for Kenyan businesses — and ships products of our own.

Asset Audit
A field app that records every asset with GPS, time and photos — and a live map that turns the audit into something a team can act on.
- Offline-tolerant capture for remote sites
- Photos stored and linked to each asset
- One map for the whole audit team
The Digital Platforms Way
How we build, and why it works here.
Mobile before desktop
We design for a mid-range Android on a busy network first, then scale up.
Local payments by default
If money moves, M-Pesa is in the first sprint, not the last.
Context is a feature
Language, culture and how people really pay shape the product, not just the copy.
Ship, then sharpen
Small releases, real users, honest changelogs.

Photo capture in the field app

- Friends Life Adventure
Live on a custom domain
The tours and bookings platform launched for our client on its own domain.
