The pragmatic stack we trust, deploy, and hand to you.
Why Octgren
Most firms rent you software or bill you by the hour. We build you systems you own, and we measure ourselves on whether they actually solve the problem.
Built on open-source foundations. No lock-in, no recurring license traps, full control of your stack.
A founder-led core and vetted specialists. No bloated agency overhead, no junior staff learning on your budget.
We price and deliver around the result: hours saved, cost removed, revenue enabled.
Nairobi-based, delivering worldwide across overlapping time zones, at a value international teams can't match.
Services · Four pillars
Four ways we turn a problem into working software.
Bespoke web and full-stack applications, internal tools, dashboards, and platforms built to your exact problem.
Connect the systems you already run and remove manual work. CRMs, payments, comms, and data wired together and automated.
Practical AI that earns its keep: assistants and copilots, document and data processing, intelligent automation, and analytics pipelines.
We implement mature open-source platforms end-to-end. Odoo for ERP, CRM, and accounting. Keycloak for SSO and identity. Plus the rest of the stack you'd otherwise rent. White-label the theme to your brand, configure modules and workflows to fit your operation, and stay on a support plan so you don't need an in-house OSS specialist.
Platforms · We deploy & maintain
Mature, battle-tested open-source platforms we deploy on your infrastructure, theme to your brand, and configure to your operation. Including a quietly growing book of health-tech work on OpenMRS and HAPI FHIR.

How we work
A low-risk path from problem to owned, working software.
A short call to confirm the problem, scope, and fit, before anyone commits to anything.
A low-risk paid audit or sprint that maps the work and proves value before a larger build.
Senior-led delivery with proactive communication, version control, and clear milestones.
You get documented, open code and a system you fully control. We can stay on retainer, by choice, never by lock-in.
Quick ways to start
Fixed scope, clear price, fast outcome. Pick an entry point and we’ll take it from there.
A fixed-fee diagnostic. We map your manual workflows, name the bottlenecks, and quantify the hours and dollars you’d reclaim by automating them.
A focused two-to-three week build that connects your CRM, payments, comms, and ops tools into one no-touch flow you can audit and extend.
Ship your first practical AI workflow as a packaged engagement. An assistant, a document pipeline, or a smart automation, in your stack and supported.
Deploy, theme, configure, and run Odoo, Keycloak, OpenMRS, or a similar OSS platform on your infrastructure. White-label theming and a monthly support plan included.

FAQ
Still curious?
Ask anything. A real engineer will write you back, usually the same day.
Ask a questionYes. We implement and run mature open-source platforms end-to-end. Most often Odoo and ERPNext (ERP, CRM, accounting, inventory), Keycloak (SSO and identity), OpenMRS and HAPI FHIR (clinical records and healthcare interoperability), and Apache Superset, Metabase, and ClickHouse (analytics, dashboards, and event data). The path is the same in each case: deploy to your infrastructure, white-label the theme to match your brand, configure modules and workflows to fit how you actually operate, and stay on a support plan so you don’t need a full-time OSS specialist on payroll. Support engagements start at $2,000 per month and you can cancel any month.
Because you should own what you pay to build. Open foundations remove license traps, eliminate vendor lock-in, and give you a system you can host, audit, fork, and extend forever. We’ll always recommend a proprietary tool when it genuinely fits, but we won’t make it the load-bearing wall of your business.
Fixed scope, fixed price. We start with a paid audit or diagnostic so both sides understand the work, then quote the build as a single number against clear deliverables. No surprise hourly invoices, no scope creep tax. For ongoing work we offer monthly retainers you can leave at any time.
You do. From day one. We push to a repository you own, document what we build, and hand over admin to every system we deploy. If you want to fire us and run everything yourself the next day, you can.
No. EAT (UTC+3) gives us a full workday overlap with Europe, the Middle East, and most of Asia, and an afternoon overlap with the US East Coast. Most clients find communication faster than with their previous agencies, not slower.
Our Automation Audit and AI Quick-Start packages are designed exactly for this. They’re a low-risk way to work with us, get something useful shipped, and decide together whether a larger build makes sense.
Often. We translate between business problems and engineering decisions, recommend the smallest thing that solves the problem, and explain trade-offs in plain language. You don’t need to know what Postgres is to work with us.
