Parents start their school search online. Long before a visit, they compare websites, read reviews, and often decide who to contact based on what they find on Google and Maps. If a school is hard to find or its website is difficult to use, families move on. Being visible and clear online leads to more trust, more inquiries, and more enrollments.
Benda Africa exists to make that happen. We began in 2016 as Devachi, a software development and consultancy whose quality work received national media coverage in 2017. As the internet evolved, so did we. Today, as Benda Africa, we bring together digital marketing, AI implementation, and digital strategy to help schools in Kenya stand out online and run smarter.
Design parent‑friendly websites that make it easy to find programs, fees, applications, and visit bookings.
Improve visibility on Google and Maps so nearby parents can find and contact the school with ease.
Provide an AI‑powered school management system that automates accounts, sends fee reminders, and matches M‑Pesa or bank payments to each student to save time and reduce errors.
Deliver AI consulting and implementation that surfaces learning patterns, supports student strengths, and helps educators make informed decisions.
A proven record serving respected organizations, including the Ministry of Lands, the Estate Agents Registration Board, Masinde Muliro University, and the global non‑profit NABU.
A team that blends software, marketing, and AI expertise, built on nearly a decade of dependable results.
We are building a truly intelligent school platform. Beyond grades and timetables, it will identify meaningful patterns in student data, anticipate strengths, support challenges early, and guide the skills and career paths needed in an AI‑driven future. Schools will not only run smoothly, they will help every learner thrive.
