What we deliver

What Cape Town companies hire us for.

01

Web and e-commerce

Sites and stores that load fast, with the payment gateway you already use: PayFast, Yoco, Peach Payments, Ozow or Stripe.

02

Apps and platforms

iOS and Android with Flutter, internal dashboards and multi-user SaaS in Next.js and React.

03

AI agents and copilots

Agents on WhatsApp and your site, and copilots that answer from your own database instead of guessing.

04

AI visibility (GEO)

Getting your company cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini when someone asks about your sector in South Africa.

05

Team augmentation

Engineers added to your in-house team by the sprint, with no new local headcount.

FAQ

What people usually ask.

Do you have an office in Cape Town?

No, and we would rather say so. Ocean IT has offices in Buenos Aires, where it was founded in 2020, and in São Paulo since 2022. South Africa is served remotely, in English, with the same written scope, fixed price and handover we give every client. If what you need is a supplier with a local registered address, we are not it.

How do the time zones work?

Cape Town is five hours ahead of Buenos Aires and São Paulo, so there is a window of roughly four hours every working day, from about 14:00 to 18:00 SAST, when both teams are online. We use it for calls and reviews and keep the rest asynchronous, with written updates you can read first thing in the morning.

Which payment gateways can you integrate?

The ones South African companies actually use: PayFast, Yoco, Peach Payments and Ozow for instant EFT, as well as Stripe. If your business already runs on a gateway, we integrate with that one instead of pushing you to change.

Why hire a development team from Latin America?

Cost and availability. The same work costs well below a European or North American agency, our team already works daily in English, Portuguese and Spanish, and there is an overlapping window with the South African working day. The trade-off is honest: you get a remote partner, not someone who can walk into your office.

Who owns the code and the accounts?

Your company, from day one. Repositories, hosting, domains and app store accounts are created in your name, so you can take the project elsewhere whenever you want.

How do you charge, and in which currency?

Fixed price per project, agreed in writing before work starts. We invoice international clients and settle the currency and payment method in the proposal; there are no hourly surprises at the end of the month.

Can you help us get cited by ChatGPT in South Africa?

Yes, that is our AI visibility service. We open the site to AI crawlers, publish an llms.txt, structure the data with schema.org and write a citable FAQ, then measure what ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini answer about your brand before and after. Our own sites run exactly like that, which you can check by opening /robots.txt and /llms.txt on oceanit.io.
