Fikazon Technologies · Lagos · since 2009
Our products are live, with paying customers running on them every working day. They were built for places where the power and the internet go off, with AI built in where it does a real job.

Already tested
Live products, with paying customers.
These are not demos. Our own products are used every day by organisations that pay for them, so what we build for you rests on something already tested. Client builds, one pilot and one concept are labelled as such.
Live
Running today on servers we operate, with backups kept off the server and restores tested.
Paid for
Our own products have active paying customers. People do not keep paying for software that fails them.
Looked after
We still run every system we have shipped. Problems come to the people who built it.

AI, built in
AI where it does a job.
We put AI into a system when it removes work or catches mistakes, and we build it the way we build everything else: checked, metered, and able to fail without taking the product down. These are running today.

StudyFrames
A tutor that uses the tools
Frames is a study companion that listens, speaks and explains. While it explains, it operates the study tools on the student's own screen. It wakes to a spoken word recognised on the device.
See StudyFrames -
StudyFrames
Marks handwriting
A student photographs a handwritten answer and gets a practice mark, with the reasons for it.
See StudyFrames -
StudyFrames
Turns books into a question bank
A pipeline turns photographed exam books into questions. Every question is checked against its answer key before a student sees it.
See StudyFrames -
BuyFinder
Reads every post before it goes live
AI screens every request and every bid. It rejects with a one-sentence reason, tidies the title and picks out brand and model. If the AI service is down, posting carries on.
See BuyFinder -
FikazonSMS
An assistant inside the accounts
School administrators ask the built-in Edalaf assistant for help from inside the system, including the accounting module.
See FikazonSMS -
Schoolpager
Drafts that a person approves
AI drafts headlines and summaries for a school's website. Each one stays marked Suggested until a person edits it.

Arithmos Arena
An opponent at any hour
Arithma, the AI boss, gives a student a maths battle when nobody else is online.

How we build AI into a system
Behind an adapter
The AI model sits behind one interface, like every other supplier. It can be replaced in one file.
Metered
The cost of every reply is recorded. Paid calls are cached and capped for each customer.
Checked
AI output is verified, or marked as a suggestion, before anyone relies on it.
Safe to lose
If the AI service fails, the product carries on without it.
Why it stays up
Built for the day the light goes.
Most of what we build is used where power cuts, patchy internet and old computers are normal. So we design for the outage first and treat the connection as a bonus. Flip the switch and watch.

Depth
Hard problems we have already solved.
If your project has one of these inside it, we have met it before, in production. The systems that prove each one are named beside it.
-
Working without the internet
Devices that work alone for days and then agree with each other. Every record is a signed, numbered event, so a missing one is detected and never silently lost.
-
Money that checks itself
Amounts held as whole kobo, never decimals. Every movement is a double-entry ledger line. Ledgers add themselves up on a schedule and raise an alarm if they do not balance.
-
Payments that cannot go missing
Multi-student checkout, a 72-hour custody hold, approved daily payouts and refunds. Each payment is confirmed directly with the provider, so a lost notification cannot lose a payment.
-
One system, many organisations
Multi-tenant platforms with strict separation between organisations, each on its own domain where it wants one, with its own email and its own look.
-
Exam day at full load
1,100 simulated students starting an exam in the same moment on one ordinary school laptop. The first run let 811 through. Six fixes later, zero errors.
-
Security on real equipment
Answer keys sealed to a device and opened only at hand-in. Signed licences. Encrypted local databases. All of it made to work on the old PCs schools and clinics actually own.
-
Moving a living system overnight
About 8,700 PHP files carried across a decade of runtime versions, load-tested first, switched over in the early hours. The schools noticed nothing. Hosting cost fell from $132 to $72 a month.
-
AI that does a job
A study companion that listens, speaks and operates the study tools while it explains. A pipeline that turns photographed exam books into verified questions. Screening of every marketplace request and bid.
-
Hosting other people's code safely
Learners publish their own pages under our domain. Their files cannot execute on the server, cannot be reached directly, and run in the browser inside a sandbox that cannot read the site's cookies.
-
Real-time play
Live one-against-one maths battles with leaderboards, tournaments and an AI opponent for when nobody else is online.
-
Data you can stand behind
An engine that turns raw match data into versioned, append-only verdicts. When a data supplier had to be replaced, one adapter changed and nothing else did.
Method
How a build runs.
Fixed scope. Fixed timeline. A demo at every milestone. One named person who answers for the whole thing.
- 1
Scope
We write the specification before any code. It says what will be built, what will not, and what done means for each part. You sign it; so do we.
- 2
Build in milestones
Work is cut into phases, each with its own written gate. You see a working demo at every milestone, not a status report.
- 3
Launch
Load-tested against your worst day on your worst machine. Backups restored in a test before launch. Guides written for the people who will use it.
- 4
Maintain
We keep running what we ship: hosting, monitoring, fixes and small improvements, under a monthly care plan.
Who answers for it
The person accountable for all of it.
“Understand the problem deeply, then build systems that continue delivering value for years.”
For more than 17 years I have been engineering systems that help organisations operate more efficiently — first through industrial and environmental engineering, and later through enterprise software architecture.
Before software, I progressed from Laboratory Technician to Environmental Manager, leading multidisciplinary engineering work and writing the operational systems and technical documentation that go with it. That experience shaped how I build today: systems thinking, reliability, operational discipline and long-term maintainability.
The people you talk to are the people who build it.
Tell us the problem.
We will tell you what it takes to ship it, and what it takes to keep it running.
