About Stravio Lab

We build the software Africa’s institutions deserve.

Stravio Lab is a Nairobi software company. We design, build and support the systems hospitals, schools, SACCOs and growing businesses run on, made for mobile money, patchy connections and busy teams.

Our story

It started at a front desk.

Across the region, hospitals, schools and businesses are run by capable, committed people, working with tools that were never designed for them. Paper registers. Spreadsheets emailed between departments. Imported systems that assume constant internet, card payments and weeks of training nobody has time for.

Stravio Lab was founded to close that gap. We are engineers and designers who believe African institutions deserve software held to the same standard as the best products in the world, and built around how they actually work: mobile money at the counter, patchy connections, shared computers, busy shifts.

MedixPulse, our hospital and clinic management system, is the first expression of that belief. It won’t be the last.

“We build every system as if our own family’s hospital, school or savings group depended on it, designed with the people who use it every day and supported long after launch.”
Abdikarim MohamedCEO, Stravio Lab
Mission

To give Africa’s institutions modern, reliable software that makes their work simpler, their decisions clearer and their services better for the people they serve.

Vision

A continent where every hospital, school and business runs on software it can trust, built close to home by people who understand it.

How we work

Four commitments behind every system we ship.

01

Context first

We design for real conditions (mobile money, unstable power and networks, shared devices), not for a demo on fibre.

02

Craft, not templates

Every screen is designed around a role’s daily tasks. Clean interfaces mean fewer errors and shorter training.

03

Reliability is a feature

Institutions can’t pause for downtime. We engineer for security, backups and stability before we add anything new.

04

Partners after launch

Go-live is the start. We train on site, answer the phone, and keep improving the product with the people using it.

Our journey

Where we’ve been, and where we’re going.
