Built in Kenya, for Africa and its diaspora.
Yiimi is built by Yiimi Technology, based in Kenya and building for Africa and its diaspora — with a longer-term horizon that extends into Asia. We build for the reality of the market we're in — where smartphone penetration, data access, and device generations vary block to block, and where the person you most want to reach is often the one least likely to have an app.
Reach over rate
We're not trying to be a cheaper phone plan. We're trying to make sure no one is unreachable because of the phone they own.
Dignity by default
Not having a smartphone shouldn't mean being left out of the conversation. The feature phone experience is treated as a first-class one, not an afterthought.
Built to be trusted
Every design choice — from the sign-up flow to the heads-up text before a first call — is built around being recognizable, never deceptive.
