Starter kit and step-by-step videos
Turn your idea into a real product African customers can pay for
A starter kit and step-by-step videos that take you from idea to launch with AI tools like Claude Code, Cursor and Codex. Sign-in, local payments, security, an admin dashboard and analytics come ready, so you can focus on what makes your product different.
If you can use a computer and you're willing to learn, you can follow it.
Built for people with an idea worth building
AI tools have made building possible for people who never wrote code. Turning an idea into something people sign up for and pay for still takes more than a clever prompt.
You know a field well
Years in your profession have shown you a problem worth solving, and you want to build the tool yourself.
You run a business offline
You want your service online, with bookings, payments and customers who come back.
You have a side project waiting
You have a job, an idea you keep coming back to, and evenings you could put into it.
Already built something that works but stalled before launch? This will get you over that line too.
Demo or real product?
What makes it a real product
AI tools can get you to a demo in an afternoon. It looks finished on your own laptop. A real product has to hold up when strangers sign up, pay you and come back next month.
A demo
- Works for you, on your own laptop
- The pay button doesn't take real money
- Logins and customer data are often left unprotected
- When it breaks, a customer tells you
- Each new change risks breaking what already worked
A real product
- Strangers sign up, and their data stays private
- Money reaches your bank account, with renewals and refunds tracked
- Runs on your own domain, with emails that reach inboxes
- You hear about problems before your customers do
- You can keep changing it without breaking what works
Getting from the first list to the second is where most people get stuck. It's the part this kit gives you ready.
How it works
From idea to launch in three steps
-
01
Shape the idea
Decide what to build first and who it's for, with guidance on picking a first version small enough to ship.
-
02
Build with AI on the kit
Follow the videos to add your own features on top of a foundation that already works.
-
03
Launch and get paid
Go live with payments, emails and analytics working from your first customer.
What's inside
Everything a real product needs, ready on day one
Built on Next.js, one of the most widely used web frameworks, so what you make is a web app that works on any phone or computer.
Step-by-step videos
Short lessons that walk you through building on each part with AI tools, from your first prompt to your first customer.
AI rules built in
The kit comes with instruction files that tell Claude Code, Cursor or Codex how your app is built and what not to break. Your AI tool follows the same rules every time, so your product keeps working as it grows.
Sign-in and accounts
Email, Google and phone-number login, password resets and admin roles.
Local payments
Paystack and Flutterwave built in. Collect by card, bank transfer and mobile money in more than ten African countries, priced in local currency, with subscriptions and refunds that update what each customer can access.
Failed renewals handled
When a local card fails on renewal, your customer gets a reminder and an easy way to update it, and their access stays in step.
Security from the start
Safe defaults for keys, access checks and forms, closing the gaps AI-written code often leaves open.
Admin dashboard
See your users, manage subscriptions, issue refunds and handle support.
Analytics
Signups, active users and revenue in one view, so you know if it's working.
Emails and landing page
Welcome emails, receipts and a landing page, ready for your words.
Error alerts and backups
Hear about problems before your customers do, and recover your data if you need to.
Light on phones and data
Pages that load quickly on mid-range Android phones and slower connections.
Privacy and terms
Starting templates for consent, privacy and terms pages, written with laws like Nigeria's in mind. Have them checked for your own business.
Setup guide
Your domain, hosting, database and email set up step by step, on free plans until you have paying customers.
Coming after launch
WhatsApp and SMS for login codes and notifications, and identity verification for apps that handle money, rentals or marketplaces.
Made for African customers
Most starter kits assume Stripe and American customers. This one starts here.
Your customers are spread across many countries, mostly on phones and often on patchy data. The kit is set up for them from the first line, with local payment options, pages that stay light on phones and data, and privacy templates written with laws like Nigeria's in mind.
Who's making it
Hi, I'm Chibuzor Onwurah
I co-founded Seamfix in 2007 and wrote its early code. I stepped away from building around 2012 to run the company, and came back to it in 2025 using AI tools.
Since then I've shipped products of my own and for Seamfix. This kit and its videos bring together the parts and the lessons from those builds, so you can follow the same path.
For over a decade I've also helped people without a tech background move into tech, through the academy I started at Seamfix.
Some of what I've built since coming back
Famity
A parenting app for families, including allowance and savings tracking for children.
FPLAtlas
A tool for Fantasy Premier League managers, used by players in my own FPL community.
Several company products
Including a customer application estimated at three months for a team of five. I had the core working within a week. Read the story

Thank you
You're on the list for Oya Kit. I'll be in touch before launch on 5 November.
Questions
Do I need to know how to code?
No. If you can use a computer and you're willing to learn, the videos take you through each step, including the setup screens for your domain, hosting and payments. AI tools write most of the code.
What else will I need to pay for?
The kit is a one-time $99. Alongside it, you'll need a domain name, about $10 to $15 a year, and an AI coding tool such as Claude Code, Cursor or Codex, which usually costs around $20 a month for regular use. Hosting, database and email stay on free plans while you build. Once you're charging customers, hosting costs from about $5 a month on Cloudflare or $20 a month on Vercel. Paystack and Flutterwave charge nothing upfront, only a fee on each payment.
Can I build a mobile app with it?
You build web apps with Next.js. They work in the browser on any phone or computer, and customers can add them to their home screen. Apps for the App Store and Google Play aren't included.
Which countries do payments work in?
The kit is built around Paystack and Flutterwave, two of Africa's largest payment companies. Between them, they take local payments in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, Rwanda, Côte d'Ivoire, Uganda, Tanzania, Malawi, Zambia and Egypt, and in the French-speaking countries of West and Central Africa that use the CFA franc. Customers anywhere can also pay by Visa or Mastercard. Card, bank transfer and mobile money options differ by country.
Who can use the payment features?
To take payments, you'll need your own Paystack or Flutterwave business account. Each one accepts businesses registered in the countries it serves and asks you to verify your business before you go live. The setup guide walks you through it. If you're based somewhere neither covers, the rest of the kit still works, and you can connect a different payment provider.
I'm not in Africa. Is this for me?
Yes. Everything in the kit works wherever you are, and customers anywhere can pay by Visa or Mastercard. The local payment options, pricing and phone-first details are a bonus if you sell to customers in Africa.
Why build my own instead of using an existing tool?
If an existing tool already does everything you need, use it. Building your own makes sense when you need something those tools don't do, when monthly fees add up as you grow, or when you want to own your product and your customer data.
Can I use it for more than one product?
Yes. One purchase lets you use the kit for as many products as you like, and you get every update I publish.
Does joining the waitlist cost anything?
No. Joining is free. You'll get first access when it opens, at the launch price.
