We write it in Nairobi, for the way Africa actually trades.

We got tired of payroll that thought Kenya was somewhere else, and of tills that stopped when Safaricom blinked. So we wrote the other kind.

What we believe

Principles we build by

Local reality first

Tax, payments, payroll law, connectivity, hardware budgets — we design for the ground truth of African operations, then make it beautiful.

AI with guardrails

We embed AI everywhere it earns its keep — and nowhere it can do harm. Deterministic numbers, read-only access, human approval on every action.

Your data is yours

VortexERP Enterprise, HR & Payroll, VortexPOS and MicroLens AI deploy on-premise or in your cloud; VortexERP Lite is fully cloud-hosted for zero-maintenance access anywhere. We'd rather win on merit than on lock-in.

Depth over demos

Blind cycle counts, FEFO picking, IFRS-structured statements, CBK forex thresholds, KICD-compliant report cards — we build the unglamorous 20% that makes software actually usable.

Software people can run

Role-based workspaces, searchable in-app manuals, contextual help on every page. If your staff need a consultant to use it, we failed.

Ship, listen, ship again

Our platforms evolve weekly with real customer feedback — not on an annual release cycle decided on another continent.

How we work

From first call to go-live

Discover

We walk your floor and map how you actually operate — the till, the warehouse, the staffroom, the boardroom.

Deploy

On your servers or ours, data migrated, staff trained, compliance on from day one. Weeks, not years.

Grow

Support on East Africa Time, upgrades through the year, and the same people who sat in on discovery still answer the phone.

The portfolio

Nine platforms, one family
