Software for the institutions we went to
Akadesk Academic OS is built and operated by Appsotech Ltd for schools, colleges and universities in Nigeria, Cameroon and across West and Central Africa — where fees are paid in instalments, the syllabus is NERDC or MINEDUB rather than a US state standard, and a system that assumes a good connection is a system nobody uses.
One core, six products
A primary school, a polytechnic and an independent teacher do not want the same software, but they do share a spine: a learner, a term, an assessment, a result, a payment. Akadesk models that spine once and builds 7 products on it, so adopting a second product never means re-learning the first.
Each product is a separate application with its own database and its own subdomain. That is deliberate: it means a school can be sold one product without inheriting the surface area of five others, and it means the answer to “where is our data” is a specific database, not a paragraph.

Three commitments
- Your data is yoursExport is a feature, not a negotiation. An institution that wants to leave should be able to take its records with it.
- Priced per institutionNever per seat. Charging per login is how schools end up sharing accounts, which is how audit trails become fiction.
- Built for the connection you haveRegisters and score entry — the screens used most, often on the worst connections — tolerate a slow link and retry rather than losing work.
