Koda Digital

Digital platforms for the communities we belong to

We build small, focused mobile apps that solve one real problem well, for the people and communities we know best.

What we've built

Every app starts from a need in a community we're part of. We ship it when it works for us, then keep it working for everyone else.

Software built for organizations we care about

Alongside our own apps, we build and run systems for a small number of clients whose work matters to us.

Luna Cancer Centre

public website and patient management system · Machakos, Kenya

  • Lab request lifecycle from order to printed result
  • Follow-up scheduling with email and SMS reminders
  • Invoicing, payments, and profit and loss reporting
  • Clinical reporting by diagnosis, stage, and trend

how we build

A few things we hold to

Small on purpose

One clear problem per app, so every screen earns its place and the app stays easy to pick up.

Your data is yours

We ask only for what an app needs to work, and keep things on your device whenever we can.

Simple, fair pricing

Every app is genuinely useful for free. When you want more, it's a single purchase you make once.

Built from the inside

We make things for communities we're part of: new parents, people who lend their stuff, Kenyans at home and abroad.

about

Still typing

Koda Digital is a one-person software studio. The name reads as coder, and the caret at the end of the logo is the point: a founder who didn't code, and now does, and hasn't stopped.

The first app came out of a real kitchen table problem, feeding a baby without a plan. Another came from a drawer full of things that belonged to other people. NAKA came from being Kenyan, far from Kenya. The pattern is the same each time: notice something a community we belong to keeps struggling with, build the smallest thing that fixes it, and put it in the app stores at a price that feels fair.

We're based in the United States.
