Messaging and a wallet that keep working when the network doesn’t.
Kaab sends messages over mesh when the network is down and carries a Bitcoin and Lightning wallet for sending money home — from Minneapolis to Hargeisa in seconds.
Two things people here need most.
A way to reach family when the network is down, and a way to send money that does not take days or a cut.
Messages over mesh
When there is no signal, Kaab relays messages phone to phone until one of them finds the network. They arrive; just a little later.
A Bitcoin and Lightning wallet
Hold sats, send them in seconds, and see the amount in DJF, USD or SOS alongside.
Send money home
From the diaspora to the Horn of Africa over Lightning, settled into local currency where you need it.
Your keys, your money
The wallet is yours. Biometric unlock, a recovery phrase you keep, and no one at BayTechs can move your funds.
Pay by scanning
Pay at a PharmaGO pharmacy or any Dues merchant by scanning a code.
Queued, not lost
A payment made offline waits in the queue and sends when you are back online, with its status shown plainly.
Phone to phone, then to the network.
Your phone has no signal
You send a message as usual. Kaab marks it as queued and starts looking for nearby phones running Kaab.
It hops between phones
The message travels, encrypted, from phone to phone over Bluetooth and Wi-Fi Direct — across a market, a bus, a neighbourhood.
One of them finds the network
The first phone with a connection delivers it. Your friend sees it as a normal message; you see it marked delivered.
Keep talking. Keep paying.
Kaab is free on Android and iOS.
