About

We are building the operating system for schools in Somalia.

Dugsikaal was created to give schools a simpler, more relevant way to manage their daily work and prepare for a more intelligent future.

Why Dugsikaal exists.

Thousands of schools manage students, attendance, examinations, fees, and reporting using paper, spreadsheets, messaging applications, or systems that were not built for their reality.

Dugsikaal exists to bring this work into one clear, connected school system designed around Somali schools.

Our Mission

To give every school in Somalia the tools to run with confidence—managing students, teachers, attendance, exams, fees, and daily operations in one place, in their own language, on the devices they already own.

Our Vision

To become the operating system of every school in Somalia and beyond—and eventually the intelligent assistant that helps every child learn better, every teacher work smarter, and every school leader make decisions with clarity.

What We Believe

Local understanding matters

The best school software must understand the people, structures, and environment where it is used.

Good software should feel simple

A powerful system should make work easier, not create more confusion.

Teachers should be supported

Technology should help teachers work better, not replace their role.

Schools should control their information

Every school should have secure and clearly managed access to its records.

AI should solve real problems

Intelligence should improve timetables, teaching, reporting, and decision-making—not exist only as a marketing feature.
