02Who we are

Who we are

Esoteric Strats is a digital transformation, technology consulting and strategic innovation firm in Nairobi. We help businesses, governments and institutions modernise operations, speed up innovation and improve performance, and every project starts by watching the people who’ll use it.

Over 300 websites and 30 web applications later, the lesson is the same: software gets used when it fits how a team already works. So we watch the work first, map the process, and ship the smallest useful version in weeks.

03How does a project start?
With a conversation about the process that slows your team down. We then sit with the people who do the work, map the process and agree what the first useful version should do.
04Do you support systems after launch?
Yes. We train your team, hand over documentation and offer hosting, monitoring and ongoing improvements.

What’s slowing your team down?
