We build software that ships — and stays shipped.
Giyani Labs designs, engineers and hosts real digital products for businesses across Tanzania and beyond — from the first sketch to the thing your team opens every day.
One studio, from idea to running product.
Most agencies hand you a build and walk away. We design it, ship it, and keep it running — one accountable team for the whole life of your product.
Mobile apps
Fast, offline-tolerant Android & iOS apps from one codebase — like Fyve, running live in venues today.
Web platforms
Dashboards, portals and SaaS that stay quick as your data grows into the millions of rows.
ERP & internal tools
Inventory, sales, HR and operations systems tailored to how your business actually works.
AI & automation
Assistants, document processing and smart workflows that cut the busywork out of your day.
Games & interactive
Playful, polished experiences — from casual games to interactive brand pieces people remember.
Brand & identity
Logos, design systems and websites that make new products look established from day one.
Hosting & ops — we keep it running
Cloud infrastructure, deployments, monitoring and support on DigitalOcean, Hostinger, AWS, Cloudflare & Google Cloud. The part most studios skip.
A product studio — not a project shop.
We don't hand over code and disappear. We partner with businesses to design, build and run software that earns its place in the daily work — and we stay accountable for how it performs in the real world.
Our vision
To be the studio African businesses trust to turn ambitious ideas into dependable, world-class software.
Our mission
To design, engineer and host products that ship fast, stay reliable, and keep delivering value long after launch day.
Fyve — venue management, done right.
Our own product, built end-to-end and running live: Fyve helps bars, restaurants and hotels take orders, track stock, manage staff and see sales in real time — on the floor and on the phone.
- Realtime orders & counter tickets that never miss a beat
- Stock that auto-disables items at zero — no selling what you don't have
- Staff roles, scheduling and a live sales dashboard for owners

Clickable prototypes and a clear plan, so you shape it before a line of code is written.
Build
We ship in small, working increments you can try — no big-bang reveals, no surprises.
Ship & host
We deploy, monitor and maintain it on solid cloud infrastructure — and stay to keep it healthy.
