From document management to board portals, payments and analytics, custom built for the organisation that commissioned it, with intelligence designed into the core rather than bolted on.
AI agents & automation
Agents and copilots that sit inside existing workflows, with orchestration across models and systems.
Document management
Enterprise document repositories with version control, workflow, retention policy, full text search and AI assisted classification and retrieval.
Human resource systems→
Employee records, leave, performance, payroll interface and self service, built as one platform rather than assembled modules.
Contract & governance→
Contract registers, obligation tracking, succession planning and board level reporting.
Board & governance portals→
Paperless board packs, meeting management, resolutions, minutes and secure director access.
Legal & regulatory tracking→
Monitoring of statutes, bills and regulatory change, with impact assessment and alerting.
Learning management→
Course delivery, assessment, certification and continuing professional development tracking.
Membership portals→
Member registries, applications, subscriptions, directories, certificates and self service.
Events platforms→
Event creation, registration, ticketing, check in, badging and post event reporting.
Analytics & data platforms→
Data ingestion and cleaning pipelines, analytics engines with machine learning embedded, public and internal dashboards.
Fundraising & payments→

Web & mobile applications→
Public facing sites, portals and native mobile applications, designed and built in house.
Workflow automations→
Approvals, document routing, notifications and system integrations that run on their own, with AI handling the steps that used to need a person.
Sustainability→
Carbon and ESG reporting, resource tracking and incentive programmes, turning sustainability commitments into measurable, auditable results.
We work as engineers, not resellers. Every platform is handed over with its source code and documentation, then supported under a defined annual retainer.
Read our engagement termsSource code transfers to you
The platform, its source code and its documentation become yours on final payment.
No licence fees. Ever.
No per-user charges and no cap on records or users on anything we build.
Fixed price, fixed scope
Invoiced on delivery milestones. Changes are quoted in writing before work starts.
Hosting at cost
Billed by the provider directly, or deployed into your own infrastructure. We add no margin.
Every engagement follows the same path, from a signed-off scope and a fixed price to a live system with its source code in your hands.

Scope of work v1.0
Discovery
Requirements gathering with the people who will use the system.
You get: A signed off scope and a fixed price.
Design
Data model, architecture and interface design.
You get: Wireframes and an architecture document to approve.
Build
Development against agreed milestones, with regular demonstrations.
You get: Working software you can see as it is built.
UAT
A full staging environment handed to you for formal review.
You get: Issues resolved before anything reaches production.
Go-live
Production deployment, data migration, training and handover.
You get: Source code, documentation and a live system.
Support
Warranty period, then an annual support retainer.
You get: Defined response times and a named point of contact.
Alongside client work we build and run our own platforms: civic technology, sustainability and localised AI agents, live in the Kenyan market.
A sovereign AI platform for African enterprises, co-founded by Adrian Etenyi. Instead of sending enterprise data out to third-party AI services, Rubani deploys small, orchestrated models inside your own infrastructure.
Applications
Internal and external facing agents and copilots, with developer APIs.
Model orchestration
The right sized model for each task, drawn from open source models rather than a single large provider.
360° data fabric
Enterprise data integrated and given context across transactions, devices, customers and compliance systems.
Edge inference
On device processing with minimal bandwidth, for environments where connectivity cannot be assumed.
Sovereignty
Data stays in country and under the client’s control, with no vendor lock in.
We deliver remotely by default, with on-site presence in Nairobi and travel to client sites when a project calls for it. Systems are deployed in the region or in your own infrastructure, so data residency requirements can be met.

Work smart
We automate what should be automated and spend our time on the part that needs judgement.
Embrace change
Technology moves quickly. We adopt what earns its place and discard what does not.
Keep it simple
Clarity over complexity, in the systems we build and the way we explain them.
Tell us about the system you need. We’ll come back with a scope, an architecture and a fixed price.
