Studio

We design and build software with you, from the first question to launch and after.

We build for clients with the same hands that run our own products.

In Nigerian Pidgin, sabi means to know. Sabisoft is software made by people who take the time to know.

What we build for you.

Bring us a problem or a half-formed idea. We shape it with you, build it properly and tend it after launch.

  • Product strategy and design

    Research, product shaping and interface design, before a line of code.

    We start by learning how your customers actually find you, pay you and talk to you. Then we shape the product on paper and in prototypes until the idea is clear enough to build.

  • Web platforms

    Marketing sites, customer portals and web apps that stay fast and easy to change.

    Fast pages on real Nigerian networks, content your team can edit, and code that the next engineer can read.

  • Mobile apps

    iOS and Android apps designed for the phones and networks your customers use.

    Apps that respect data costs, work on mid-range Android phones and still feel native on an iPhone.

  • Marketplaces and payments

    Marketplaces, subscriptions and payments built for Nigerian customers.

    We run our own marketplace with subscriptions, Paystack and Apple in-app purchase, so we know the whole path from first search to paid plan, and the edge cases in between.

  • Automation and integrations

    Workflows and internal tools that connect the systems you already run.

    Fewer copy-and-paste jobs, fewer spreadsheets passed around, and a clear record of what happened.

How a project goes round.

Four steps, in order, clockwise around the tray.

  1. Understand

    We learn your customers, your constraints and what a good outcome looks like.

  2. Shape

    We design the product with you and agree what gets built first.

  3. Build

    We build, test and ship in small, working steps you can see.

  4. Tend

    We stay on to maintain, support and improve what is live.

Founders

The people you work with.

Two founders, one standard: we only ship what we would run ourselves.

CEO & Co-Founder

Kyomnom leads Sabisoft: which clients the studio takes on, which products it builds, and the standard both are held to. Kyomnom runs the company day to day and is the first person a new client talks to.

CTO & Co-Founder

Nugwan leads engineering at Sabisoft and built Yard from the first commit: the API, the iOS and Android apps, the operations console and the cloud it runs on. Nugwan makes sure what the studio ships is something the studio would run itself.
