Why we built it
We kept watching developers across Africa stitch together email from whatever they could get: global tools that don't take M-Pesa, free tiers that quietly exclude the region, and limits that hit you the moment you start to grow. So we built our own. Real infrastructure, priced in KES, free until you're actually sending.
