What is AI Modernisation?
AI modernisation upgrades ageing software by moving it to modern cloud infrastructure, refactoring code (often with AI-assisted tools) and adding AI features on top of existing data.
What does your AI Modernisation service include?
Our AI Modernisation service includes legacy assessment, cloud migration, AI-assisted refactoring and new AI features. Legacy assessment: What to keep, refactor or replace. Cloud migration: Lift, shift and optimise.
Who is AI Modernisation for?
AI Modernisation is a good fit for core banking and SACCO systems, old ERPs and HR systems, desktop apps moving to web and government registries. We work with SMEs, startups, enterprises, NGOs and public-sector teams.
What results can we expect from AI Modernisation?
Typical outcomes are lower running costs, faster, safer systems and new AI capabilities. We agree measurable success metrics before any build starts and report on them weekly.
How much does AI Modernisation cost?
PoC / MVP from KES 250,000 (≈ $1,940). Every engagement starts with a free 30-minute consultation, after which we send a fixed quote in Kenya shillings (or USD if you prefer). You can pay by M-Pesa, bank transfer or card, in instalments if that suits your cash flow, and we offer startup and NGO rates.
How long does AI Modernisation take?
PoC 4–6 weeks · MVP 8–12 weeks. We share progress in weekly demos, so you see working results early rather than waiting for a big reveal at the end.
What technology do you use for AI Modernisation?
We commonly use AWS, Azure, Docker, Kubernetes, Node.js, Laravel and Next.js. We choose tools that fit your existing systems, budget and data-protection needs rather than forcing one stack.
Can we modernise without downtime?
Yes. We use phased migrations and run old and new systems side by side until you are ready to switch.
