About
Kahiether was born from firsthand experience in Madagascar’s challenging digital environment.
From an early age, I faced the realities of limited internet access, power outages, and unreliable infrastructure. In high school in Madagascar, I ran eMule from morning until evening, squeezing as much as I could from the connection before or after classes—because that’s what it took to access knowledge. Those limitations shaped how I thought about technology, access, and inclusion.
Years later, working a decade with international teams around the world—from Europe to Asia—I realized something else: connectivity, infrastructure, and access to tools vary widely across countries. The digital divide is real. And that’s why Kahiether was created.
Created in 2020, just after the first COVID wave, Kahiether began as a bold experiment—running local Kubernetes clusters with Rancher in a set of Raspberry Pi and LattePanda , creating offline-first systems, and building architecture for places with limited internet and hardware. It evolved into a broader mission: to design open, resilient tools for the real world because
"Some innovations emerge from the toughest conditions. Progress begins when open tools empower everyone, everywhere."
Kahiether is currently built from a vision. A vision to build infrastructure, applications, web experiences, and learning systems that work everywhere, especially where the need is greatest.
