UI/UX & Product Design

If people cannot work out your product within a minute, they leave and rarely come back. Upeo Africa Technologies delivers UI/UX and product design for businesses in Kenya and across Africa: user research, wireframes, design systems, and clickable prototypes tested with real users before a line of code is written.

How we help

We research before we draw. Who is using this, what are they trying to finish, and where do they currently give up? Those answers shape the interface far more than any trend does.

You get clickable prototypes to react to before anything is built, which is the cheapest possible moment to change your mind. Then we test with real users and fix whatever trips them up.

A short call, a clear plan, and a quote before you commit.

What UI/UX & Product Design covers

Take the whole thing, or start with the one piece that is costing you most right now. Either way it is the same team and the same contract.

UX Research & Audits

Find out where your current product loses people, with evidence rather than opinion. We watch real users attempt real tasks and report exactly where and why they stop.

Interface Design

Screen-by-screen design for web and mobile, built mobile-first because that is where your users are. Clear hierarchy, obvious next steps, and states designed for errors as well as success.

Design Systems

A component library and the rules around it, so every new screen looks like it belongs and your developers stop rebuilding the same button. Consistency that survives your next hire.

Prototyping & Usability Testing

Clickable prototypes tested with people from your actual audience, before the build. Changing a prototype takes an afternoon; changing shipped software takes a sprint.

How Upeo Africa Technologies delivers UI/UX & Product Design

  1. Step

    Research

    We talk to your users and watch them attempt real tasks, so the design solves an evidenced problem rather than an assumed one.

  2. Step

    Flows and wireframes

    The structure first, in grey boxes, because arguing about layout is far cheaper than arguing about colour.

  3. Step

    Visual design

    Your brand applied across every screen and every state, including the empty, loading, and error cases most designs forget.

  4. Step

    Prototype and test

    Clickable prototypes tested with five to eight people from your real audience, which surfaces most serious usability problems.

  5. Step

    Handover to build

    Component library, specs, and source files in a form your developers, or ours, can build from without guessing.

Questions, answered

The things clients ask us before they commit. If yours is not here, ask it directly and we will answer it straight.

We already have a product. Can you improve it without a full rebuild?
Often, yes. We start with a UX audit to find where users are actually failing, then prioritise fixes by impact against effort. Many products gain more from fixing three screens than from a redesign.
What do we actually receive at the end of a design project?
Clickable prototypes, final screen designs for every state, a component library, and the source files. Everything is handed over in a form your developers, or ours, can build from directly.
How do you test designs with real users?
We recruit people who match your actual audience, give them real tasks, and watch where they hesitate or take the wrong path. Five to eight participants surfaces the majority of serious usability problems.

Custom Web Applications

Spreadsheets and off-the-shelf tools stop fitting once your business grows. We build web platforms around the way you actually work, so your team stops fighting software and gets on with the job.

Mobile App Development

Your customers are on their phones, on patchy connections, paying with mobile money. We build Android and iOS apps that work in those conditions, so nothing stands between you and a sale.

Websites & Portals

A slow or dated website quietly costs you the customers who never call. We build fast, search-ready sites that load in seconds and give visitors a reason to trust you enough to get in touch.
