We're a small independent studio building offline-first tools for people working in the world's hardest conditions - patchy power, entry-level phones, no signal. One workflow at a time, done properly.
Most software is designed for a fast connection, a new phone, and a quiet office. We design for the opposite - because that's where the work that matters most actually happens.
Every product begins with the worst environment it needs to survive - dead battery by afternoon, a five-year-old Android, zero bars. If it holds up there, it holds up anywhere.
No loading spinners waiting on a signal that isn't coming. Everything we ship works completely offline, from first launch to final export.
Rather than a broad feature list, we find the one task quietly costing people hours every week, and remove every bit of friction from it.
Our first product, built for and with primary school teachers in Malawi - replacing hours of manual score tallying with something that fits in one hand and works with zero training.
Teachers enter scores by roll number as they work through a stack of exam papers. Koticha totals, ranks, and formats the final performance sheet automatically - no spreadsheets, no manual tallying, no re-ranking by hand when a mark changes.
If you're a school, NGO, or organization exploring Koticha for your own context - or thinking about a tool for a similarly constrained environment - we'd like to hear from you.
