Founder's Note

Victor Kilonzi

Founder & CEO

There's something sacred about beginnings — not because they're loud, but because they're alive.

CodekX began quietly. Not from applause, not from capital, but from questions. From long nights and half-written plans. From that spark of knowing that something must be built — something different, something lasting.

We didn't rush to brand it or dress it up. We gave it time to breathe, to wrestle with identity, and to grow beneath the surface before anything could be seen. And in many ways, we're still there — tending to roots, not rushing for fruit.

You see, we're not just writing code or designing systems. We're laying foundations. Choosing the kind of builders we want to become. Choosing patience, clarity, and depth — even when the world claps for noise and speed.

I remember reading the words of Mwalimu Julius Nyerere, who said:

"A tree that wants to touch the sky must first learn to stand firm in the soil."

That has stayed with me.

Because CodekX is still learning to stand firm. We are learning structure. Learning rhythm. Learning responsibility — the kind that outlives ambition. We are choosing to be rooted before we rise.

So this page you're on? It's not the finished product. It's not a showcase. It's just a note — one builder to another. It's a small window into a story that's still being written.

Maybe one day, we'll have the full site up. With the portfolio, the milestones, the numbers. But for now, it's just this: a simple invitation to understand who we are, and how we're becoming.

Thank you for finding us at this stage. I hope that when the time is right, and this tree finally breaks through the soil, you'll remember you saw it here first — not in bloom, but in becoming.

Welcome to CodekX.

What We're Working On

Real work. Real impact. Built for the place we call home.

We're building water metering systems — smart, prepaid, and hybrid — that make it easier for people to access water when they need it, manage how they use it, and avoid wastage. For us, it's about creating simple ways for communities to stay connected to water in a way that is consistent, affordable, and fair.

In the process, we also make it easier for providers and institutions to serve better — but our focus stays on the people.

We're also working around how Africa uses and manages its resources — electricity, gas, minerals, timber, and more. These are things that shape everyday life, and we're thinking through what kind of technology is needed to make them reach further, last longer, and be used with care.

We're not rushing this, but it's something we've started paying close attention to.

In government, we are building systems that make it easier for leaders to do their work well — with clarity, responsibility, and a sense of direction. This means making sure services reach people as they should, and leaders have the right tools to act, not just react.

We also believe in automation — but done in a way that doesn't replace responsibility, only strengthens it. Where efficiency walks hand in hand with sustainability.

We build other tools too, but this is where our eyes are set. This is the kind of work we want to keep doing — useful, thoughtful, and made for the places we call home.
