What Gapeiro Inc. does

Gapeiro Technologies Ltd. (operating commercially as Gapeiro Technologies and referred to here as Gapeiro Inc.) is a private professional services firm incorporated in Nigeria in June 2021 and headquartered in Lagos, with additional operating entities or presences in Johannesburg (South Africa), Accra (Ghana), and Vancouver (Canada). The firm is organised around five capability bands: Lead (On-Demand CTO and On-Demand CAIO fractional executive services), Review & Assure (Technology & Architecture Review, Code Review, Fraud Investigation), Build & Deliver (Custom Application Development, System Integration & Automation, Data Engineering & Analytics), Run & Operate (Site Reliability Engineering, Observability & Monitoring, Quality Assurance & Testing), and Enable (Technical Advisory & Coaching, Training & Capacity Building). Underlying delivery is built on cloud-native infrastructure (Kubernetes, microservices, CI/CD, observability tooling such as Grafana and Prometheus) with polyglot engineering across Python, Java, React, Node.js, and PostgreSQL on AWS, Azure, and GCP.

The business model is pure professional services: revenue is generated through hands-on engineering and advisory engagements priced via individually scoped and signed agreements, with no publicly disclosed pricing, subscription tiers, or productised offerings. GTM is sales-led and relationship-driven, primarily originating through the corporate website and direct inquiry, with the fractional CTO and CAIO offerings functioning as entry points into broader engineering and consulting work. Primary customer segments are startups and scale-ups needing senior technology leadership without a full-time executive hire, and general business organisations seeking independent technology assessment, code review, system integration, data engineering, SRE, or forensic fraud investigation. The firm holds ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certification, is incorporated with the Nigerian Corporate Affairs Commission (Reg. No. 1802913) and registered with the South African CIPC (Enterprise No. 2022/771926/07), and owns a registered Class 42 trademark. No funding rounds, acquisitions, headcount figures, customer logos, or named management team are disclosed in the available data.

Products and services

• Lead (Fractional CTO / CAIO) Fractional executive technology leadership service providing part-time CTO and Chief AI Officer advisory to organizations that need senior technology and AI direction without a full-time executive hire. Targeted at CEOs, founders, boards, and operating leaders seeking strategic technology governance, architecture decisions, and executive-grade AI sponsorship.
• Review & Assure Independent architecture, design, and code-quality review service for in-house technology teams that need third-party assurance over software design decisions and implementation quality. Targeted at CTOs, heads of engineering, and platform leads preparing for scale-up, due diligence, or remediation work.
• Build & Deliver Custom software development and delivery service using cloud-native microservices on Kubernetes, polyglot engineering in Python, Java, React, and Node.js, and PostgreSQL data layers, deployed across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Targeted at growth-stage and enterprise technology teams that need embedded engineering capacity to deliver product roadmaps.
• Run & Operate Managed cloud and DevOps operations service covering observability with Grafana and Prometheus, automated testing with Selenium, and ongoing operations of Kubernetes-based workloads on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Targeted at technology teams that require 24/7 production operations without building an in-house site reliability function.
• Enable Engineering team enablement and training service designed to upskill client technology teams on modern cloud-native, DevOps, and software engineering practices. Targeted at engineering managers and heads of technology building internal capability rather than outsourcing delivery.
