Services
Engagements that move from idea to production.
We work across two distinct disciplines — Artificial Intelligence and Big Data — each with its own specializations. Pick a domain, then a plan that matches your stage.
01 — Artificial Intelligence
AI across the domains that matter in Africa.
Six focused AI practices. Each one staffed by engineers who have shipped the same class of system inside East African organizations — not generic prompt-tinkerers.
Swahili NLP & LLMs
Models that actually understand Swahili.
Tokenizers, embeddings and fine-tuned LLMs purpose-built for Swahili and East African code-switching — not bolted on to English-first systems.
- Custom Swahili tokenizers & embeddings
- Fine-tuned 7B–70B open-weight LLMs
- Swahili-first RAG over enterprise corpora
- Eval suites built on real Swahili tasks
Voice & Speech AI
ASR, TTS and voice agents tuned for the region.
Speech recognition and synthesis trained on real Tanzanian and Kenyan voices, dialects and call-quality audio — production-ready for IVR, clinics and field ops.
- Swahili & Kiswahili-Sheng ASR
- Natural-sounding Swahili TTS voices
- Voice agents over telephony & WhatsApp
- Diarization for multi-speaker recordings
Vision & OCR
Eyes for documents, IDs and the field.
Computer vision and OCR for African ID cards, handwritten forms, plates, agriculture imagery and scanned legacy archives — robust to low-light and low-bandwidth.
- ID, passport & driver licence OCR
- Handwritten Swahili form extraction
- Plate recognition & toll automation
- Agri & remote-sensing image models
Health AI
Clinical voice notes & decision support.
Voice-to-EMR transcription, triage assistants and clinical decision-support models built with Tanzanian hospitals — privacy-preserving and on-soil.
- Swahili clinical ASR & summarization
- Triage & symptom-routing copilots
- On-prem deployments inside hospitals
- Audit logs aligned with health regs
AI Agents & Automation
Multi-step copilots embedded in operations.
Tool-using agents that execute real back-office work — quotes, claims, KYC, scheduling and reporting — wired into your existing systems with guardrails.
- Tool/function-calling agent stacks
- Human-in-the-loop approval flows
- Cost, latency & safety guardrails
- Observability, tracing & evals
Localization for Global AI
Make foreign models work in Africa.
We adapt frontier models, products and datasets for Swahili-speaking markets — translation memory, cultural review, voice persona and compliance.
- Swahili translation & cultural review
- Local-voice persona for global brands
- African data licensing & sourcing
- Regulatory & compliance localization
02 — Big Data
Big Data, specified — not a single buzzword.
"Big data" usually hides five very different jobs. We separate them clearly so you buy the capability you actually need — from a streaming spine to a sovereign governance layer.
Lakehouse Architecture
One source of truth for analytics and AI.
Open-format lakehouses on Delta or Iceberg — bronze/silver/gold layers, ACID transactions and a single substrate that powers BI and AI from the same tables.
- Delta Lake or Apache Iceberg
- Medallion (bronze/silver/gold) modelling
- Object storage on S3 / GCS / on-prem
- Time travel, schema evolution, ACID
Real-time Streaming
From batch to streaming-native.
Kafka or Redpanda backbones with CDC from operational databases — sub-second pipelines that feed dashboards, fraud models and customer-facing experiences.
- Kafka / Redpanda event backbone
- Debezium CDC from Postgres / MySQL / Mongo
- Flink or Spark Structured Streaming
- Exactly-once delivery & replay
Analytics & BI Modernization
Trustworthy numbers for the whole company.
dbt-driven semantic layers, warehouse migrations (Snowflake / BigQuery / ClickHouse) and BI rebuilds that finally give every team the same definition of revenue.
- dbt models, tests & docs
- Semantic layer & metric catalogues
- Snowflake / BigQuery / ClickHouse
- Self-serve BI in Metabase / Looker
ML Data Platforms
Feature stores & vector indexes for AI.
The data plumbing AI actually needs — feature stores, training-serving parity, vector indexes and embedding pipelines wired into your lakehouse.
- Online & offline feature stores
- pgvector / Qdrant / Milvus indexes
- Embedding & retrieval pipelines
- Training-set lineage & versioning
Governance & Sovereignty
Catalogs, lineage & on-soil residency.
Data catalogs, lineage, access control and sovereign deployments that meet EAC and national data-protection requirements without slowing teams down.
- Catalogs (DataHub / Unity / OpenMetadata)
- Column-level lineage & access policy
- On-soil & on-prem deployments
- PDPA / GDPR-aligned audit trails
