About Shunifu

Started with one school. Now it's three hundred.

Shunifu was built in Eswatini, for Eswatini — and now powers schools, colleges, and government institutions across the country.

How it started

We watched teachers spend three weeks on report cards.

In 2019, we were inside Eswatini's schools — watching administrators type marks into Word documents, hand-write receipts for fee payments, and spend entire weekends building timetables on paper. The same work, repeated every term, at every school.

We built Shunifu to fix that. Not a generic platform reskinned for Africa — a system designed from scratch for how schools here actually work. Class structures that match the Eswatini curriculum. Fee tracking that handles partial payments and SMS receipts. Report cards that match the formats parents expect.

Today, 300+ institutions depend on Shunifu — from single-stream primary schools to multi-campus government colleges. We process national exam results for ECESWA, manage 145,000+ student records, and support 8,522+ teachers daily.

What drives us

Schools shouldn't fight their software

Every design decision, feature priority, and support interaction is guided by a single question: does this make the school admin's day easier?

Built here, for here

Not a Western platform reskinned for Africa. Shunifu was designed from day one for Eswatini's school structures, curriculum formats, fee patterns, and connectivity realities.

Same team, same number

When you call Shunifu, you reach the same team that built the platform and onboarded your school. Local, responsive, and deeply familiar with your setup.

Scales with you

The same platform handles a 200-student primary school and Eswatini's national CBE exam results. One system, no ceiling.
