The team
A small team that builds with care.
Kahaya is a full-service team for strategy, design, and engineering. We think small teams that care ship better software than large ones that don't.
- Care over speed
- Honesty over hype
- Owning the outcome

Working together
Honest answers, no sales voice.
The questions we get asked most. Answered the way we'd answer them in person.
Rates & pricing
That's what the Discovery sprint is for. Two weeks to turn a fuzzy idea into a roadmap and a scope you can act on. No commitment to build beyond it.
Rarely, and only for teams we'd join as a partner. Cash keeps the work honest. Equity is a separate conversation we're open to having.
It saves both of us a call. If the budget doesn't fit, you find out now. If it fits, our first conversation is about the product.
Process & team
Two to four people: a strategist/designer and one to three engineers. Small on purpose.
Usually within two weeks of a signed engagement. Embedded squads sometimes start faster if we have a slot open.
Yes. No account managers, no relay game. You're in the same channel as the people writing the code and drawing the screens.
Legal & logistics
Yes to both. We can work from your paper or ours, and we'll redline only what genuinely matters.
You do. All of it, from day one, in a repo you control.
We hand over a runbook and stay available for a fixed support window. After that you can run it yourself, keep us embedded, or hand it to your own team.
