What it is
Software built from a real farm.
MkulimaOS started as the system we built for a coffee estate we run in Trans-Nzoia, Kitale. The estate had real problems — paper attendance registers, WhatsApp voice notes for payroll, no record of which block a worker was on when a task got logged. We solved them for the estate first.
Now MkulimaOS runs the full operational cycle at Mulinga and is being rolled out to neighboring farms. Three more packages are queued: Poultry, Horticulture, and Herbs. Same engine, vertical-specific modules.
Packages
Four verticals. One engine.
Each package extends the core MkulimaOS engine with workflows specific to that operation. Buy what you need. Add the rest later.
Farm Management
The flagship package. Workforce attendance with GPS verification, M-Pesa payroll, AI disease scouting, harvest traceability for EUDR, and finance ledgering. Live at Mulinga.
