Build technology that expands what people can do.
Products of our own that solve real problems, run reliably and earn the trust of the people who use them.
About
An independent technology company. Registered in Nigeria, based in Abuja, with ambitions that are global.
Who we are
Arcwave Technologies conceives, builds, owns and operates its own software products. We identify meaningful problems, design products around them and run the platforms underneath, from the first idea to the version people use every day.
Gistmo, a communication platform, is the first of those products. Beyond it, we are laying the groundwork for research into intelligent systems, with the long-term ambition of contributing original artificial intelligence technology.

Purpose
Products of our own that solve real problems, run reliably and earn the trust of the people who use them.
From the products we operate today to the intelligent systems we intend to develop, we want Arcwave to be known for original work that holds up over decades.
Our approach
Five principles that decide what we take on and how we ship it.
We pursue our own ideas and build products with a clear purpose, rather than copying what already exists.
Reliable, carefully engineered technology, tested before it ships. Security, stability and data integrity come before cosmetics.
We make decisions for the company we intend to be in ten years, not the next quarter.
We keep ownership of our products and of their technical direction.
We stay open to emerging technologies and to what they make possible, and we say so plainly when something is a direction rather than a product.
To be clear
Arcwave is not an agency, a consultancy or an outsourcing firm. We do not sell development services and we do not build for hire. Everything we make, we make for ourselves, and we operate it for the people who use it.
