An information communication technology company dedicated to developing innovative IT solutions.
Ustadi is African Script's business management platform, built from the ground up by running our own business on it first. Sales pipeline, quotes, invoicing, accounting, payroll, expenses, projects and e-signatures - all in one system, instead of a patchwork of separate tools that don't talk to each other.
Most business software built for African businesses is a repackaged Western product with M-Pesa bolted on afterwards. Ustadi was built differently: M-Pesa and bank payment recording, Kenyan payroll statutory deductions, and workflows shaped around how businesses here actually operate, from day one - not retrofitted.

No switching between a CRM, an invoicing app, a payroll spreadsheet and a separate accounting package. Every module below is included in a Ustadi subscription.
Track every enquiry from first contact to won deal, without losing leads in an inbox.
No leads slip through: every enquiry from your website lands directly in the pipeline, ready to be converted and worked.
Quote, invoice, and get paid, with the paperwork handled automatically.
Recurring revenue, handled: retainer and subscription clients get invoiced automatically on the cadence you set - no manually re-typing the same invoice every month.
A real chart of accounts and general ledger under the hood, not just a list of invoices.
Built for real accounting, not just invoicing: every invoice, expense, and payroll run posts to the ledger automatically - your P&L stays current without a separate bookkeeping exercise.
Track what the business spends, down to the pettiest of cash.
No more "who has the receipts": every shilling spent is logged against a supplier and an account, ready for reporting.
Run payroll, manage leave, and handle the full staff lifecycle in one place.
One system, whole employee lifecycle: from job offer to payslip, staff records live in one place instead of scattered across email and spreadsheets.
Track delivery work and recurring content commitments against the client that's paying for them.
Delivery tied to billing: a retainer's scheduled work and its recurring invoice live in the same system, so nothing gets delivered without being billed - or billed without being delivered.
Send a document out for signature and get a verifiable audit trail back.
A real audit trail: every signature is tied to the exact document that was signed, not just a name typed into a form.
One customer record, shared across sales, invoicing and delivery.
Fewer "can you resend that invoice" emails: clients with portal access can find their own invoices, quotes and project status without waiting on a reply.
Most business software is either too generic to fit how African businesses actually get paid, or too narrow to run the whole business on. Ustadi was built to be neither.
Ustadi isn't a theoretical product - it's the same system African Script uses to run sales, invoicing, payroll and delivery every day.
Sales, invoicing, accounting, payroll, projects, documents - all connected. No re-keying the same client or invoice into three different apps.
M-Pesa and bank payment recording built in, not added as an afterthought integration.
Run more than one company or branch on a single Ustadi instance, with accounting and records kept fully separate.
100% web-based. Works on any device with a browser - nothing to install, nothing to maintain on-site.
Developed and maintained by a Kenyan team. When you need a change, you're talking to the people who built the system.
Financial records, payroll data and client information are sensitive. Ustadi protects every account at every entry point.
Every login requires a one-time code sent to the account email before access is granted.
Fine-grained permission rules control who can view, edit or approve records in every module.
Sessions expire after a period of inactivity - leaving a browser open doesn't leave data exposed.
Key actions across invoicing, payroll and documents are logged with user, timestamp and record.
Ustadi ships with all of this in one subscription.
