The front desk
Your website and your brand — how a stranger decides whether to trust you, before you have ever met. Not a brochure: a front desk that turns visitors into real enquiries.
Software studio · Nairobi, East Africa
We build the software your business is still doing by hand.
Custom systems, websites and internal tools — built around how your business actually works, not off a shelf. For companies that have outgrown spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups, and “ask Mary.”

Days
to go live, not months
Every business has two halves. We build both.
Plenty of companies will build you a front desk and walk away. Almost nobody goes down into the engine room — it’s hard, and different in every business.
The engine room
How work actually moves through your business — orders, jobs, stock, enquiries, invoices, and who owes you what. One system your whole team runs on.
What we build
Custom business systems
The engine room. Orders, jobs, stock, leads, invoices — one system your whole team runs on, instead of five spreadsheets and a WhatsApp group.
Learn more →Websites that bring in work
Not a brochure that sits there. A front desk wired to a dashboard, so every enquiry lands in one place and nothing gets lost.
Learn more →Mobile & remote-first
Run your business from anywhere — for the days you can’t, or would rather not, be in the office. Your whole operation, in your pocket.
Learn more →Reporting & dashboards
See where the money is, today. The numbers you didn’t know you could trust, in one glance instead of a month-end scramble.
Learn more →AI where it earns its place
Not AI for its own sake. Automation and intelligence in the exact spots that save you time — and nowhere it would just add risk.
Learn more →Infrastructure & integrations
M-Pesa, Paystack, KRA eTIMS, WhatsApp, Google — the tools you already use, finally talking to each other, on infrastructure that stays up.
Learn more →We don’t sell software off a shelf. We diagnose, then build. Think of it like therapy for your business — no two are the same, even the ones that look identical.
How we work
01
Sit down
We learn how your business actually runs — your people, your steps, your SOPs. Hands-on, with the people who build it. No account managers, no handoffs.
02
Diagnose
Where the hours leak. What only one person knows. What’s quietly holding the business back.
03
Build
The specific system your business needs — not a product you have to bend around.
04
Enhance
Reporting, AI and mobile-first — the improvements you didn’t know to ask for, so every part pulls together.
05
Run
We don’t hand it over and disappear. We run it, keep it working, and grow it as you do.
Why bespoke
Off-the-shelf software vs. a system built around you
| Off-the-shelf SaaS | A Codegenix system | |
|---|---|---|
| How it fits | You bend your business to fit the tool | Built around how you already work |
| The awkward parts | Workarounds and spreadsheets on the side | Handled inside one system |
| Your data | Locked inside someone else’s platform | Yours — and reportable |
| When something breaks | A support ticket in a queue | The person who built it |
| As you grow | New per-seat fees and hard limits | It grows with you |
Selected work
The products we build and run ourselves — plus bespoke systems for clients across ten industries.
Questions, answered
What does Codegenix actually do?
We build custom software — business systems, websites and internal tools — for companies across East Africa. We also build and run our own SaaS products, which keeps our engineering honest: we live with what we ship.
Do you only build your own products?
No. Most of our work is bespoke systems for clients across ten industries. We also own products like LeadFoundry and StockFoundry — running our own software in production is how we stay sharp.
How do we start?
Tell us what you’re trying to build or fix. We sit down and learn how your business actually runs, then come back with a clear plan and price before a line of code is written.
How long does it take?
A focused website and enquiry system can be live in days. A full internal system is a matter of weeks, not months — and you see progress the whole way, never a black box.
