What we do

Your tech team in Cotonou.

Websites, apps, artificial intelligence, integrations: we design and evolve your company's tools, whether or not they run on our products.

Custom websites and apps

Websites, mobile apps, APIs: designed and built by the team that also builds ShopX. Delivered documented, handed over to your team.

Artificial intelligence

We already use it in our products: listings written from a photo, image background removal, assistants. We bring it into your tools where it saves time.

Integrations

MTN MoMo payments, WhatsApp, Facebook and Messenger: we connect your tools to the services your customers already use.

Grow

Online store, Google search visibility, Meta, Google and TikTok ads: customers, with numbers you understand.

Our solutions

Products we design and run ourselves.

ShopX

You sell, we orchestrate.

Create your online store with no technical skills. Customers pay with MTN MoMo or cash on delivery, and you deliver yourself or let the ShopX courier do it. One photo is enough to create a product listing, and your sales and Facebook messages land in a single dashboard.

Discover ShopX

OlaShop

Your favourite shops, in stories.

Follow your favourite shops through stories, like WhatsApp statuses, and a full-screen feed of posts, photo or video. React, comment, reply to the shop, and open the featured item in one tap. A WhatsApp code is all it takes to sign in.

Public Procurement

Never miss a public tender again.

All of Benin's public tenders, pulled every night from the ARMP portal: procurement plans, calls for tenders, JNMP journals. Search, track your deadlines, get email or SMS alerts.

Real impact, not promises

What we build must change something concrete in the life of a merchant, an SME or an institution. No feature collecting dust in a drawer, no project that stops at the demo. We measure our success by what happens in the field.

Autonomy as our compass

We succeed when our clients no longer need us to move forward. We build tools that create independence, not services that create dependency. Training, documenting, transferring knowledge: that's as much our job as shipping code.

Rooted in Benin

We're in Benin, in Cotonou. We live the constraints: MTN MoMo payments, orders taken on WhatsApp, deliveries to neighbourhoods without street addresses. We talk to merchants face to face. Starting from here isn't a limit: it's what makes our tools useful elsewhere in Africa.

Scaling with ambition

We don't think of ourselves as a small local outfit doing its best. What we build in Benin should serve elsewhere in West Africa, where needs are similar and global tools fall short. We're giving ourselves the means to get there.

About

We build the tools we wish we'd had.

Founded in Cotonou, OLA Solutions is a Beninese tech company. We build tools for our clients and for ourselves, starting from local realities: mobile payment, WhatsApp, home delivery.
