UPEO Innovations is a software development company in Harare, Zimbabwe. We engineer custom platforms, web and mobile apps, and the products that power them.
Upeo is Swahili for the horizon — the furthest point you can see. We build software that pushes it further: platforms built to carry millions of messages, serve ads across whole networks and run the people side of entire companies. Engineered in Harare, built for the world.
We don't just build for clients; we build, run and sell our own software. The same engineering goes into every project we take on.
Reach every customer where they already are.
A WhatsApp bulk messaging platform on the official WhatsApp Cloud API: approved templates, contact groups, campaigns and a prepaid wallet in one place.
Advertising that pays everyone fairly.
A multi-merchant ad server: merchants buy advertising, publishers show it in their apps and websites, and every ad is reviewed before it serves.
Work, made simple.
A multi-tenant HR platform: employees, leave, attendance, payroll and performance management where KPIs cascade from supervisors to their teams.
From the first workshop to the 3am alert, we cover the whole lifecycle of the software your business depends on.
Systems engineered around how your business actually works.
Fast, accessible, search-friendly web applications.
Native-quality iOS and Android apps from one codebase.
Connect systems that were never meant to talk.
Conversations at scale on the official WhatsApp API.
Ledgers, wallets and money movement done right.
Infrastructure that stays up while you sleep.
Turn the data you already have into decisions.
Interfaces people understand on first use.
A senior second opinion before you commit.
A clear, visible process with working software at every step, so you always know where your project stands.
We learn your business, map the problem and agree what success looks like before writing a line of code.
Flows, wireframes and prototypes you can click through, refined with real users until they feel obvious.
Short, visible iterations with working software at every step. Tested, reviewed and documented.
Production deployment with monitoring, backups and runbooks, so go-live is a non-event.
Support, maintenance and new features as your business grows. We stay for the long run.
We connect the channels your customers use to the systems your business runs on, and engineer every link to the same standard.
Idempotent APIs, audited ledgers, migrations, monitoring and tests. The habits of fintech, applied everywhere.
We design, engineer and operate our own platforms, so we know what it takes to keep software running.
Mobile money, multi-currency and patchy connectivity are design inputs for us, not afterthoughts.
Our studio is in Avondale, Harare. Our software runs for businesses across Zimbabwe and Africa, and we work with clients anywhere on the map.
