See it in the lab →Optimized wholesale B2B cart with built-in stock calculations, ready for immediate retail branding.

For the SME packages above specifically:
You do. We help you link your M-Pesa or card directly to a local host (like Truehost or NovaHost) or a foreign cloud. That means you legally own your domain and server account forever. No developer can ever lock you out.
No. These packages are pure custom code with zero ongoing software subscriptions. Once it's built, it stays up. We only charge if you want us on retainer for active monthly design changes or ongoing content updates.
A strict 50/50 split. 50% non-refundable to start design and coding, the remaining 50% invoiced after you've tested and approved the site on our staging server right before it goes live on your domain.
Beyond client work, we're building SaaS products for real problems in Africa. We're our own toughest clients.

Count me inNo buzzwords, no SEO fluff. Just things we actually learned building products in Nairobi.
Most Kenyan business sites were built years ago with no mobile optimization, no clear call-to-action, and load times that drive visitors away in under 3 seconds. Here's what's costing you, and exactly how to fix it.
Wix, Google Sites, or custom code? A brutally honest breakdown for Nairobi SMEs. Real costs, real SEO impact, what converts clients.
Offline-first architecture, M-Pesa Daraja, pricing in KES not USD. Real lessons, no theory.
Performance on Tecno phones, M-Pesa plugin support, offline capability, developer cost in Nairobi. Our verdict after shipping both.
Local SEO strategies that actually work in Kenya. Google Business Profile, Swahili keywords, schema markup. No fluff.
STK Push, C2B, B2C explained plainly with code. The exact setup we use for every Kenyan project, including sandbox testing tricks.
Most of your customers are on mobile data. A slow site isn't just annoying, it's costing you real business. Our exact checklist.
Things we actually learned that month. No newsletter template, no affiliate links, no sponsored posts. Just useful.
We'll confirm via WhatsApp. Unsubscribe whenever. No hard feelings.
Tech & Growth. Nairobi. Building things that actually work.
We started building websites because we kept seeing Nairobi businesses with incredible products and embarrassing websites. It felt like a solvable problem. It still does.
Most agencies in Kenya hand you off to a junior after the sales call. You quote with one person, get built by another, and then the "account manager" disappears post-launch. That frustrated us.
At ByKabiro Labs, we handle the entire lifecycle. Coster ensures the strategy, operations, and marketing make sense for your business, while Simon engineers the technical architecture to make it run flawlessly. We are the ones who reply, and we are the ones who build.
Sometimes what you're asking for isn't what you actually need. We'll tell you when that's the case. Then build the thing that actually solves the problem.

Fill this in or just WhatsApp us directly. Whatever's easier. We respond within 24 hours. Usually much faster.
Even a rough idea is fine. We'll figure it out together.
