01Our work
Not mockups. Live software people use every day, designed, built and launched by our team, end to end.
Book a barber, salon or spa in a few taps. No queue, no phone calls.
South Africans use CutQ to find barbers, hair stylists, nail techs, braiders and spas near them, compare real prices and availability, and book instantly. Businesses get a live calendar, reviews, QR posters and referral links, and are paid through Paystack.
Signed documents that never leave your device.
Draw a signature, fill printed forms exactly into their boxes, extract text with OCR, split and combine pages, and password-protect the result, all in the browser. Send a document for signing and each party signs in order, with trusted timestamps and a full audit trail.
Remote work that actually hires from South Africa.
A job board that pulls listings from 13 remote-work sources every few hours and keeps only the roles open to candidates in South Africa, so job seekers stop wasting applications on jobs they were never eligible for.
The HR platform where work works around your people.
Employees ask HR in plain language, see their payslips and leave, and request what they need in one place. HR teams run case queues, onboarding and offboarding journeys, recruitment, payroll and analytics from a single workspace, with SCIM provisioning, webhooks and audit trails for the systems around it. Built for POPIA from day one.
02What we do
From first pixel to final deploy: one team designs it, builds it, hosts it and keeps it running.
Interfaces designed around your brand and your customers: research, wireframes and high-fidelity designs you see and approve before anything is built.
iOS, Android and web apps, from booking and delivery to invoicing and management platforms, built with Flutter, React Native and modern web frameworks.

04How we work
Four steps, with you in the loop at each one. No handoffs to strangers: the people you brief are the people building it.
We listen first: your goals, your customers, your budget. Then we audit what exists and plan what to build.
Wireframes, then high-fidelity designs. You see it before we build it, and we iterate until it's right.
Clean code on a modern stack, tested and reviewed, in short sprints so you see progress every fortnight.
Launched, monitored and supported. Website packages include 3 months of free updates, with care plans after that.

06Who we are
We build digital products that move businesses forward.
At Zulu Code, we believe technology should empower businesses and improve lives. We build scalable software that helps South African companies compete globally, and we prove it by running products of our own.
We're based in Boksburg, with deep knowledge of the South African market: local payment gateways, POPIA, patchy connectivity and budget phones. We cover the whole stack, from web and mobile to custom software, hosting and the support that comes after launch.
It depends on scope. A business website usually takes 2–3 weeks and a custom web app 6–8 weeks. A mobile app MVP is typically 8–12 weeks, and a full production app or business system 4–6 months. You get a detailed timeline during discovery.
Yes. Your code, your database, your hosting. You can modify it yourself, hire another developer, or keep us on for updates. No lock-in and no licensing fees.
Website packages include 3 months of free updates. After that, monthly maintenance plans and retainers cover fixes, OS updates and new features.
Yes. We audit and redesign existing sites, and we build APIs and integrations to connect new software to your accounting, CRM, payment gateway or database.
No. We're based in Boksburg and work with businesses across South Africa and further afield.
