Case studies

Proof you can try today — and results we’re writing with our first partners.

Halisi Softworks is a young Nairobi studio, and we’d rather earn your trust than borrow it. So instead of logos we don’t have or numbers we made up, here are two honest things: a working system you can open right now, and exactly what a Halisi engagement is built to achieve. Named client results will be published here — with their permission — as they land.

Working software, not a mockup

See Halisi Ledger run — before you spend a shilling.

Our flagship product is a live, interactive demo: a chama contributes by M-Pesa, a loan is disbursed, and a repayment reconciles itself — narrated, step by step. It’s the clearest proof of how we build: real workflows, real M-Pesa logic, genuinely useful on day one.

What we build toward

The outcomes our systems are designed to deliver.

These are representative scenarios — the shape of the problems we solve and the results we engineer for. They’re honestly labelled as targets until real client numbers replace them.

Retail & Duka POS

Reconciling M-Pesa and cash across many branches

Representative scenario
Problem

A retail chain closes each branch’s books by hand at night, matching till slips to M-Pesa statements. Errors surface days later, and head office has no same-day view of sales.

Solution

A POS built around the till that auto-matches M-Pesa callbacks to receipts in real time and rolls every branch into one live dashboard.

Outcome (target)

Same-day reconciliation instead of a multi-day close, with discrepancies flagged automatically rather than hunted for by hand.

SACCO & Lending

Cutting loan turnaround from a week to a day

Representative scenario
Problem

A SACCO routes paper loan applications between branches for approval, so members wait a week or more with no idea where their application stands.

Solution

A digital loan workflow with role-based approvals, automatic statutory reporting, and SMS status updates members can follow from application to disbursement.

Outcome (target)

Approvals in hours rather than days, and a full audit trail ready for statutory review at any time.

School Management

Fee reminders parents actually see

Representative scenario
Problem

A school’s finance office calls parents one by one about overdue fees — slow, draining on a small team, and still missing families.

Solution

Automated WhatsApp reminders tied to the fee ledger, sent on a schedule, with a simple way for parents to check balances and pay directly.

Outcome (target)

Fewer overdue accounts and hours of admin time returned each week, with parents self-serving instead of waiting for a call.

Get in early

Become a founding client.

The first businesses we work with don’t just get software — they get the best of us, on the best terms, and a say in where the product goes. This is the moment to come in.

Founding-partner pricing

Early clients get our best terms — a fair rate locked in while we grow, in exchange for honest feedback and, when you’re happy, permission to tell your story.

A direct line to the builders

You work with the people who actually write the code, in your time zone, reachable the same day — not an account manager relaying messages.

You shape the product

Come in early and your real needs steer what we build next. Founding clients influence the roadmap in a way later ones never can.
