The company targets growing markets with high potential, offering the basic human need of communication and internet connection at a fraction of the cost. The primary features of KaiOS bring support for 4G LTE E, VoLTE, GPS, and Wi-Fi; with HTML5-based apps

Frequently Asked Questions
The costs are largely dependent on the complexity of the app. Lightweight apps that do not require back-end support can take as little as $1500 while more complex apps can have costs of over $100,000. Contact us and we will happily provide you with a quotation.
The total project time cost depends on the workload. Simple MVP-s for some apps can be developed within a few weeks, while other complex apps might need a few months.
While there are more than 200 million total KaiOS users, the final reach of an app is dependent on the market, where the app is released. Targeting multiple markets also increases the potential userbase. We can bring your app to the African, European, Asian and South American markets.
We believe that every app has the potential to succeed and will help in developing any app, regardless of its size.
In addition to start-to-finish development of apps, our team also offer pre- and post-development services like app management (including updates), advertising, market research and future development options.
KaiOS runs on HTML5, but we are able to mandate any other programming language or technology stack in accordance with our customers needs.
