About Us

Custom software, engineered simply.

RAI & RAI Solutions is a software company based in Gilgil, Nakuru County. We design, build and maintain custom software — web platforms, mobile apps and payment-integrated systems — that help businesses run faster and serve their customers better.

Many businesses are held back by paper records, disconnected spreadsheets or off-the-shelf tools that don't match how they really work. We sit down with you, learn your operations, and build a system shaped around them: one that takes payments, keeps records accurate and gives you clear reports on your business.

We are a hands-on technical partner from the first idea to a live, supported product. The same team that plans your system writes the code, connects your M-Pesa and bank payments, puts it online and keeps it running long after launch.

What the Company Does

Everything your software needs, under one roof

We cover the whole life of a digital product, so you never have to coordinate between a designer, a developer, a payments consultant and a hosting company.

01

We plan & design

We map your workflow, agree on what the system must do, and design screens you can click through before any code is written. You know the scope, cost and timeline up front.

02

We build

We build secure web applications, Android and iOS apps and back-office systems — POS, inventory, school, SACCO, booking and logistics platforms — using proven, modern technology.

03

We integrate

We connect your software to the services you already use: M-Pesa (STK Push, Paybill, Till, B2C), banks and card gateways, SMS, email, accounting tools and partner APIs — so data flows on its own.

04

We host & support

We deploy your system to secure cloud servers, set up backups and monitoring, train your team, and provide ongoing maintenance, updates and support so it keeps running every day.
