01 · The Problem
How most landlords
still manage
property.
Africa has 600M+ urban residents. Property management remains trapped in WhatsApp groups, Excel sheets, and handwritten ledgers. The cost? Lost revenue, disputes, and hours of manual reconciliation every month.
❌ WhatsApp chaos❌ Excel hell❌ Paper leases❌ No audit trail
📱
WhatsApp Rent Collection
Screenshots as payment proof. Personal numbers mixed with business. One disputed M-Pesa transaction and credibility is gone.
📊
Spreadsheet Reconciliation
12 versions of the same Excel. Wrong formulas discovered on month 8. Manual water-reading math every billing cycle.
📝
Paper Lease Chaos
Agreements in a drawer. No digital record. No reminder when leases expire. Disputed terms with nothing to show.
🔓
Zero Accountability
If a manager leaves, your records go with them. No log of who changed what. No tamper-evident history.
02 · The Solution
One platform. Every workflow.
Each property company gets their own dedicated workspace, isolated data, and full feature stack. One platform, one login — built specifically for African property management.
🏦
M-Pesa Native
STK Push + Paybill C2B auto-reconciliation. Daraja API callbacks match payments to tenants in real time. Zero manual work.
Daraja API✍️
Digital Leases
Tenant receives email link → signs online → lease ACTIVE. No printing, no scanning, no chasing anyone to the office.

06 · AI Intelligence
Njiti AI.
Knows your
portfolio.
Not a generic chatbot. Njiti reads your real live data — tenant arrears, maintenance queue, inventory levels, deposit balances — before every response. Role-scoped: admins get portfolio KPIs, tenants see only their account.
"Who has the highest arrears this month?"
🤖 Brian Mutuku in B-201 owes KES 35,500 — 14 days overdue. Send WhatsApp reminder?
"What's my occupancy rate?"
🤖 91.5% occupied across 3 properties. 25 vacant units. 4 expire within 30 days.
"Inventory running low on anything?"
🤖 Paint (2 units left) and PVC pipes (0) are below reorder threshold. Auto-draft PO?

09 · Market Opportunity
A $4.2B market
with no clear
winner.
Sub-Saharan Africa has 600M+ urban residents. Kenya alone has 500,000+ rental units managed informally. No dominant property management SaaS exists for this market. We are building that category.

Professional property managers, 100+ units
Why Africa. Why now.
📱
Mobile-first market
95% of transactions happen on mobile. We built M-Pesa as a first-class citizen, not an add-on.
🌍
Greenfield opportunity
No dominant player. The market is fragmented across Excel, WhatsApp, and paper. We win by showing up.
📈
Urban migration tailwind
Africa's urban population grows by 35,000 people every day. More cities = more rentals = more landlords.
💻
SaaS infrastructure ready
Fiber penetration, mobile money rails, and cloud services have matured. The timing is right.
Competitive landscape
No Africa-native competitor has our feature depth. Global players (AppFolio, Buildium) are US-centric, lack M-Pesa, and cost 5× more.
