Agentic AI consultancy / Proven in the wild

AI that works the way your business actually works.

We don't sell off-the-shelf software. We build agents tailored to how your operation runs, deployed live, refined in production. Proven first in our own businesses. Built next for yours.

Book a discovery call See how we work

Most CEOs we talk to haven't started yet.

Not because they decided AI isn't for them. Because they don't realise how far it's already moved.

We're not sitting on the strategy side telling them what they should do. We're operators ourselves, running 14-year-old businesses in Kenya, and we built this stack inside our own operations because we needed to. Now we deploy the same systems for clients who recognise they can't afford to wait another year to figure out what's possible.

The gap between organisations that build agentic AI into how they run, and organisations that don't, is opening every quarter. That gap compounds. The cost of catching up later is always higher than the cost of starting now.

The hardest part of AI right now isn't the technology. It's knowing what's already possible.

The wave is here. Here are the numbers.

Three data points. Three sources you can verify. We're not asking you to take our word for it. The market is moving with or without your organisation, and the published projections agree.

Free guide, coming soon

The 90-day AI starter guide for Kenyan operators.

Everything we wish we'd known when we started deploying AI inside our own operations. What to build, what to skip, what to expect. Written by operators, not consultants.

  • Real Kenyan deployment examples, not US case studies
  • The specific stack we run inside Tribe Watersports and Maji Magic
  • 90-day implementation roadmap with honest cost estimates

Get early access. We'll email you the moment it's live.

No spam. Unsubscribe anytime. We'll only email you about the guide and occasionally about what we're learning from our own deployments.

Two ways in. Both proven.

Some organisations need their teams to understand AI before they deploy it. Others are ready to deploy and need a partner who's done it before. We run two parallel tracks for that reason. Pick the one that fits where you are.

Train

Get your team fluent in what AI can actually do.

Three formats, depending on how deep you need to go and how many people are coming with you. No theory decks. We teach what we use, every day, inside our own operations.

01

Online Workshop

Private remote session, on your schedule

For executives or small teams who are AI-curious but not ready to commit to flying anyone in. We meet on Zoom, walk you through what's actually working in 2026, and answer the questions you've been quietly holding onto.

  • Private session, you set the date and time
  • Minimum 5 participants from your organisation
  • What AI can do today, and what it still can't
  • Live demonstrations of real agent systems
  • Recorded for your team to revisit
$390 / person Minimum 5 participants
02

On-Site Workshop

One-day intensive at your office

For organisations that want their whole company up to speed in one go. We fly in, run a full day with your leadership and operational teams together, and leave with everyone speaking the same language about what comes next.

  • Built for groups of 15 to 30 people
  • Full-day curriculum, hands-on throughout
  • AI fundamentals plus department-specific use cases
  • Live system walk-throughs from our own operations
  • Follow-up materials for ongoing reference
$500 / person Minimum 15. Travel quoted separately
03

Bespoke Programme

Strategy and skills, built around your business

For leadership teams who need both. You're not just learning AI, you're working out what your AI strategy is, with us in the room. Designed for organisations where strategy and capability need to land at the same time.

  • Multi-session programme, scoped to your needs
  • Combines workshops with strategic advisory
  • Tailored use cases mapped to your operations
  • Leadership team and key staff included
  • Outputs include a written strategy document

Build

A custom AI team built around how your business actually operates.

Three steps, in order. Discovery is free. Assessment is paid and structured. Build is the deployment. Each step earns the next.

01

Free Discovery Call

30 minutes. No obligation. Open to anyone.

You tell us what you're trying to solve. We tell you, honestly, whether agentic AI is part of the answer or not. If it's a fit, we propose what comes next. If it's not, we say so and point you somewhere useful.

  • 30 minutes on Zoom or in person if Nairobi-based
  • No prep required, no slides, no pitch deck
  • You leave with a clear sense of whether to continue
  • Open to any organisation, any sector, any size
Free No charge. 30 minutes
02

Strategic Assessment

A real audit, with a written deliverable

This is a piece of work, not a sales call. We map your operations, identify where agents fit and where they don't, model the financial case, and write you a roadmap. You walk away with the answer, including an honest "no, don't do this yet" if that's what's true.

  • Operational audit and process mapping
  • Use case identification and prioritisation
  • Multi-agent architecture proposal
  • Financial modelling and return projections
  • Phased implementation roadmap
  • Includes a documented "don't proceed" recommendation if applicable
$6,999 Defined deliverable, fixed scope
03

Full Agent Build

Production deployment of your custom AI team

We architect, build, and deploy a coordinated team of agents purpose-built for how your business actually operates. Bookings, logs, comms, reporting, internal coordination, executive briefings. The systems we run inside our own businesses, configured for yours.

  • Custom multi-agent system designed for your operation
  • Bookings, scheduling, and resource coordination
  • Internal communications and team logs
  • Compliance, safety, and reporting workflows

Live operations running on the Savannai stack

The team that never clocks out.

Savannai isn't a one-person consultancy with AI tools on the side. It's a coordinated stack, with defined capability layers, running continuously. This is the same architecture we deploy for clients. Each layer below is a real component of how we operate.

Operator
Ben Kelliher
Founder and MD

Fourteen years running operations in Kenyan tourism and hospitality. Built the agentic stack inside Tribe Watersports and Maji Magic before turning it into Savannai. Leads every client engagement personally.

System Layer
Amara
Strategy

Maps the operational landscape, surfaces where AI fits, and identifies what to leave alone. Built for first conversations and structured assessments, not boardroom slides.

System Layer
Koa
Engineering

Architects the multi-agent infrastructure. Distributed systems, API orchestration, agentic frameworks. The technical layer that turns a strategy into a deployed system.

System Layer
Zara
Research

Continuous monitoring of global AI developments and market intelligence, filtered for what's relevant to client engagements in East Africa.

System Layer
Nile
Communications

Drafting and refinement layer for written outputs. Brand voice, client documentation, thought leadership. Every piece of writing passes through here.

System Layer
Tau
Operations

Continuous monitoring of all live deployments. Surfaces anomalies, generates daily briefings, maintains system health. Active around the clock.

System Layer
Nia
Client Intelligence

Maintains continuity across every client engagement. Onboarding, ongoing context, follow-up. So nothing important falls through the cracks.

Rooted in tourism. Applicable everywhere operations are complex.

Tourism and hospitality

Where we started and where we know the operations cold. We've built and run hospitality businesses for over a decade, so we understand the realities of the sector from the inside.

  • Safari operators and conservancies
  • Adventure and marine tourism providers
  • Lodges, camps, and resort groups
  • Tour operators and experience designers
  • Destination management companies

SMEs and operations-heavy businesses

If your business has a lot of moving parts, manual coordination, or roles that exist mostly to chase information around, agentic AI changes the maths. Sector-agnostic from here.

  • Agriculture and food production
  • Logistics, fleet, and field operations
  • Service businesses with complex bookings
  • Multi-site SMEs needing coordination
  • Leadership teams developing AI strategy

Building inside the frameworks Kenya is putting in place.

Kenya's National AI Strategy 2025-2030 sets out a national framework for AI adoption across priority sectors including micro, small, and medium enterprises, the creative sector, and sustainability. Our work intersects all three. The hospitality, adventure, and SME operators we serve sit at the centre of where the strategy expects AI capability to grow over the next five years.

Separately, Kenya's National Tourism Strategy 2025-2030 explicitly calls for research, innovation, and the uptake of new technology in the tourism sector. The systems we deploy are a direct answer to that call.

We engage actively with both frameworks because we believe Kenya's positioning as a regional AI leader will be shaped most by the operators who actually deploy, not the consultancies who only theorise.

Engineered in production. Not in theory.

Every system we deploy has been validated within live commercial operations across Kenya. We built this infrastructure to solve our own operational challenges, then refined it into a deployable framework for organisations facing equivalent complexity.
