BUILT IN KENYA.
TRUSTED GLOBALLY.

Kraftbox was founded in 2022 inside Kenya's thriving tech ecosystem — a group of engineers who refused to accept "good enough" for African software. We've since grown into a 35+ person team spanning Nairobi, Kigali, and remote hubs, delivering systems that process millions in transactions and power critical healthcare infrastructure.

What makes us different? We don't parachute generic solutions. We build with the continent's real constraints in mind — intermittent connectivity, M-Pesa integrations, data protection regulations — and we stay after launch.
