From problem to product
We start with problems we see in the wild — broken trust, missing infrastructure, workflows that fail real users. Then we design and ship software to address them, end to end.
- Research grounded in African markets
- Full ownership from idea to production
- No advisory layer — builders only
Software we stand behind
Everything we release is something we are accountable for ourselves. Nest is the first public product — a verified rental marketplace for Ghana — with more to follow.
- Built on local context from day one
- Designed to scale across the continent
- Nest: rentals done right for Ghana
What powers our products
The same stack and discipline behind Nest — focused execution, production-grade quality, and context that only comes from building here.
Web platforms
Full-stack surfaces for the products we ship — fast, accessible, and tuned for real network conditions.
Backend & APIs
Python, Node, and pragmatic architecture — APIs and services designed to stay maintainable as products grow.
Product delivery
From first prototype to production — tight scope, honest tradeoffs, and shipping cadence that matches a product team, not a slide deck.
Payments & trust
Paystack, Flutterwave, and mobile money — flows built for how money actually moves in African markets.
In-house product
Nest by Vylis
A verified rental marketplace for Ghana.
The problem
Ghana's rental market runs on trust — and there's almost none of it. Scammers, fake listings, landlords who vanish after taking deposits, and zero protection for tenants. Finding a room shouldn't feel like gambling.
Key features
Verified landlords
Every listing tied to a real, confirmed identity.
Escrow payments
Money held securely until both parties confirm.
Digital leases
Legally structured agreements, signed online.
Ratings & reviews
Transparent history on landlords and properties.
Real reasons. Not marketing copy.
We ship.
No committees. No handoff chains. When we commit to a product, we own it from discovery through production — working software people can rely on, not decks.
We know the market.
We're based in Accra and building for the continent. That means we understand local payment rails, connectivity constraints, and what African users actually need — not assumptions from abroad.
Small team, high bar.
No bloated org chart. The people designing the product are the people shipping it — senior-level engineering and product judgment focused on a narrow set of bets.
We stand behind every release.
Nest and what follows are products we operate ourselves. That accountability shows up in reliability, pace, and how honestly we scope what we can do well.
