APIs that connect everything.

Most businesses end up with a drawer full of software that doesn't connect: a website here, an accounting package there, a spreadsheet someone maintains by hand, a payment provider that emails reports nobody reads. When those systems can't talk to each other, a person has to — copying numbers across, re-keying orders, reconciling by eye. You become the integration, and you don't scale.

An API (Application Programming Interface) is simply the agreed language one system uses to talk to another. Build the right ones and the copying disappears: your store tells your accounts about every sale, your app reads live stock, your payment provider notifies you the instant money lands. The work happens between machines, in real time, without you in the middle.

We build clean REST APIs — versioned, rate-limited, and structured so other developers can actually use them — and add real-time webhooks so your systems are notified the moment something happens, rather than polling and guessing. Where flexible queries or live data matter, we'll build GraphQL or WebSocket endpoints instead.

Just as often, the job is connecting to APIs that already exist: a payment gateway, a shipping provider, a CRM, an accounting tool, a social platform. We handle the awkward realities — auth, retries, rate limits, the edge cases the docs gloss over — so the integration holds up in production, not just in a demo.

In Kenya, the API conversation almost always reaches M-Pesa. We work with the Safaricom Daraja API regularly and across its modes: STK Push for customer-initiated payments, C2B for paybill and till numbers, B2C for disbursements like refunds and payouts, and transaction status queries for reconciliation. We also integrate Pesapal, Flutterwave, and Stripe where they fit.

The hard part of payments isn't the happy path — it's what happens when a callback is delayed, a customer cancels mid-prompt, or the same payment is reported twice. We build for those cases up front, so your records stay correct even when the network doesn't cooperate.

An API nobody can understand is a liability. Everything we build comes with clear, interactive documentation and examples, so your team — or a third party you're integrating with — can get going without a string of emails to us. You're never locked in by our knowledge sitting only in our heads.

On security, we apply the basics properly: OAuth 2.0 or API-key auth, HTTPS everywhere, rate limiting, input validation, and logging, following OWASP guidance. And if you already have an API that was built in a hurry, we audit it for performance, security, and design, then refactor and document it to a standard you can build on.
