Frequently asked questions
Why do founders in South Africa pick Kiebot as their devshop?+
Because we pair like a co-founder, not a vendor. Founders get a senior architect from day one, weekly demos, fixed-cost MVP options, and a documented handover so the codebase is never a black box.
What technology stacks does Kiebot use for South Africa startups?+
Our default stack is TypeScript end to end — Next.js or React on the front end, Node.js or NestJS on the back end, PostgreSQL or MongoDB, deployed on AWS, Azure, or GCP. We also build mobile in React Native or Flutter when the product needs it.
How quickly can a South Africa-based founder ship an MVP with Kiebot?+
Most validated MVPs go live in 8 to 12 weeks. We start with a scoping sprint, freeze a clickable prototype within 2 weeks, then run focused two-week build sprints until launch.
