What we build

Five things we are good at

Markets and disciplines, not a product list. Most engagements are one of these; some are two of them meeting in the middle.

  • Financial systems

    Payments, billing and collections. Wallet and mobile money integrations, reconciliation, statements, and the transaction workflows that sit between a customer paying and a ledger agreeing.

  • Business communications

    Bulk and transactional SMS, WhatsApp Business integrations, and the delivery, templating and opt-out machinery that has to sit behind them to keep a sender in good standing.

  • Insurance technology

    Quoting, policy administration and claims. The forms, the underwriting rules, the documents that come out at the end, and the integrations with everyone else in the chain.

  • Digital systems

    Web applications, APIs and enterprise integrations. Internal platforms for operations that have outgrown a spreadsheet, and the plumbing that makes two systems agree.

  • Intelligent automation

    AI workflows and process automation, used where they earn their place. Where a plain rule is cheaper and more predictable than a model, we write the rule.

Company

Rooted here. Building forward.

A technology company in Nairobi. We choose tools to fit the problem, keep dependencies few, and stay responsible for what we ship.

Independent and engineering-led: no account layer between you and the people writing the code.

How we work

One office, and your floor when it counts

We build from one room in Lower Kabete, on Nairobi hours, and we come to you for the days that need us there.

  • Our office

    Ikigai, Lower Kabete

    One address, Nairobi hours. The team builds in the same room, which is why a question about your system gets answered the same day it is asked.

  • On your floor

    We travel for the days that matter

    A kick-off, a migration, a launch weekend: we come to your room for the days that need us in it.

  • Cloud and AI native

    Built around both, from day one

    Cloud infrastructure and AI-assisted engineering, not bolted on after launch.

  • Products, not projects

    Support contracts and SaaS

    What we build, we keep running.

FAQ

Questions we get asked

The four we get asked most.

What does working with Acaciawave cost?

It depends on scope, and we price against a written one rather than a guess. If a project is not worth building, we say so instead of quoting for it.

Can you integrate with the systems we already have?

Usually — it is most of the work. An API if there is one; otherwise a file, a database or an export. Finding out which changes the estimate, so it comes first.

How do you choose the technology?

By what the problem requires: well-supported tools, few dependencies, and no architecture only one person understands.

What happens after launch?

We keep running it, on a support contract rather than a handover. Monitoring, fixes and changes stay with us, and you get a named person rather than a queue.

Let’s build what moves your business next

Describe the problem, not the solution. We come back with a plan, a scope, and an honest view of whether we are the right people for it.
