Software. Security. Intelligence.
We build software and cybersecurity solutions that help organizations operate, integrate and grow securely.
Intelisav is inspired by Intelligent Savannah — reflecting our ambition to build technology for the realities and opportunities of Africa.
Software, security and technology built for real-world needs.
Intelisav Africa builds secure software, protects digital systems, and develops intelligent technologies for organizations.
We design and develop business applications, SaaS platforms and integrated digital systems; we help organizations identify and address cybersecurity risks across their applications and infrastructure; and we research where applied AI genuinely helps, starting with assistive technology for people with visual impairments.
Software Engineering
We build the business applications, platforms and integrations organizations depend on.
Explore Software EngineeringCybersecurity
We help organizations assess and improve the security of their applications, APIs and digital systems.
Explore Cybersecurity
Software engineering + cybersecurity.
The advantage is in connecting them.
Software engineering and cybersecurity are connected throughout our work. We consider security from architecture and threat modelling through development, testing and operation, so security is part of how systems are built rather than something added afterwards.
We build and operate our own software.
Our products give us firsthand experience of the operational, integration and security challenges businesses face.
Simba Retail
Modern commerce management for businesses — sales, inventory, customers, payments and branches in one system.

Med3
Digital management for modern healthcare facilities — records, appointments, billing and clinical inventory around a single patient record.
Explore Med3Built with African operating realities in mind.
Businesses across Africa operate across different connectivity environments, payment systems, infrastructure and workflows. We design for those realities rather than assuming every organization operates like a generic global enterprise — and those realities shape how we build products such as Simba Retail and Med3.
To build secure, practical technology that helps organizations operate better and grow with confidence.
From an engineering company to a technology company.
Simba Retail and Med3 exist because we needed them, and running our own systems taught us more than most client work could. The next step is to build beyond Kenya — products and research that can serve regional and global markets while remaining grounded in the environments in which they are built and used.
That is also why AI & Innovation is a fourth capability rather than a slogan. It is research, not a service line: we start from a real problem, build something that can be tested, and say plainly when it is not ready. The first initiative is InteliVis, assistive technology for people with visual impairments.
Four things we hold to.
Innovation
We solve real problems with practical technology, chosen because it works rather than because it is new.
Integrity
We build with transparency and accountability, and we say plainly when something is not a good idea.
Security
We consider security throughout the software lifecycle — not as a phase at the end, and not as a product we sell separately.
Partnership
We work closely with clients, and we would rather build the smaller honest thing than the larger speculative one.
