Remote worldwide. Real-time 3D & motion
Websites youcan reach into.
We build 3D, motion and interaction into sites for brands that need to be remembered, not just visited. Watch our K become a client’s idea, then turn it yourself.
Koena Technology is a remote software studio working with clients worldwide. We build the interactive layer (real-time 3D, motion, custom interaction) on top of sites that still have to load fast and sell something.
Real-time 3D
Scenes, not videos
Objects your visitors can rotate, configure and break. Rendered live in the browser, so nothing is a pre-baked clip.
Built for this market
60fps on a mid-range Android
We test on the phones your customers actually hold, on the networks they actually have. Heavy scenes lazy-load and degrade instead of hanging.

A lakeside wedding venue that lays out every guest's chair and prices every free date.
Our own build, not a client. Enkaji is a camp we invented to work out what a safari lodge site should be. A lodge sells being there, so the landing view is the light that is actually outside right now in the Mara. And you can drag it through the day.

Stack
Real-time 3D, no framework
Photography
None needed: all rendered
The problem
A camp's website is a gallery of other people's afternoons. It tells you what the place looks like and nothing about what being there is like, which is the only thing anybody is buying.
What we built
You stand on the deck of your tent at the lip of the escarpment, 25 metres above the plain, in 3D. One clock drives the sun, the sky and which animals are out: giraffes by day, elephants heading for the river in the late afternoon, lions at dusk, hyenas after dark.
Hover an animal for its name and distance, press and hold to raise the field glasses. After dark the pointer is a real torch that finds eyes in the grass, and a click in the sky sends a shooting star. The page opens with the camera gliding in over the plain.
Sunrise and sunset barely move at one degree off the equator, so the whole scene is keyed to 06:20 and 18:40 all year.
Why it matters commercially
No photography anywhere. A camp that has not shot its rooms yet can still have this site on day one. Most of them have not.
Direct booking. OTAs take 15 to 25% a night. The booking panel prices the stay and shows what the guest keeps by coming direct, which pays for the build in about two bookings.
What it demonstrates
A real-time 3D landscape driven by one shared clock, animals that keep their real hours, and a commercial argument built into the interface rather than bolted onto it.

Kilele
Our own build, not a client. A fictional 24-storey Nairobi development, made to answer the question every off-plan render dodges: what will I actually see from my apartment?
Sector
Off-plan residential
Status
Demonstration
Units modelled
96, individually priced
Photography
None needed: all modelled
The problem
Off-plan asks somebody to spend twenty million shillings on a thing that does not exist. The floor premium is real money (about 1.35% a floor), and no render shows what it buys.
What we built
The view is not illustrated. Nairobi is built in 3D around the tower from the same data the price model uses, with the Ngong Hills on the horizon, under the sun as it is right now, at sunset or at night. You stand inside the apartment at its real eye height, and climbing is a ride up the facade.
The stack is the tower as it stands today: poured to floor 11 with a crane working on top, everything above it a line drawing, every apartment in its status colour. Pick one and the view from it is rendered from the same city, so the two can never disagree.
Why it matters commercially
It answers the objection that stalls the sale, and it does it before a salesperson is involved.
Scarcity becomes a fact. "Only 31 left, and the good ones are going" is on screen rather than in a pitch.
It prices the instalment, not the headline, which is the number that actually decides it.
What it demonstrates
A real-time 3D city tied to live pricing, a stateful product configurator, and a build-progress story that shows what is poured and what you are buying off the drawings.

Model
One house on its real hillside
Photography
None needed: all drawn
The problem
A practice sells the distance between a brief and a building, and is asking to be trusted with that distance before anything exists. Almost every practice site instead shows a grid of dark renders with no story.
What we built
One house in 3D on its plot in Tigoni, which you turn by hand and scrub from technical drawing to finished building. The sweep runs through the whole valley: on the drawing side the hill is the surveyor’s sheet, contours and wire trees; on the built side it is tea planted along the contours, shelter belts, a red murram track and mist in the valley.
Nothing moves between the two states. Same walls, same stair, same hill. Only the depth of render changes, which is exactly the argument. “Lift the floors” separates the storeys so each plan reads on its own.
Why it matters commercially
They already own the assets. Every practice has DWGs and sections sitting unused. You trace what exists, which makes it the cheapest sector on our list to produce.
Their sites are uniformly bad, so the gap is easy to show in a pitch.
What it demonstrates
Real-time 3D that still reads as an architect’s drawing, a light editorial palette, and domain credibility: the process section puts county approvals and NEMA on the programme, which most practices quietly leave off.

Mvule
Our own build, not a client. A fictional furniture workshop in Karen, built to solve the one problem every premium maker has: justifying four times the price of an import that photographs identically.
Sector

Status
Demonstration
Combinations
96, all drawn live
Photography
None needed: all rendered
The problem
A premium maker does not lose the sale on looks. It loses it on price. And it cannot photograph its way out: four timbers × four seats × three cushions × two sizes is 96 photographs for one chair.
What we built
The chair is a 3D model that builds itself joint by joint in the workshop in Karen, among the shavings, the bench and the timber stacked against the wall, with the morning coming in through the open doors. “See it at home” moves it onto a kikoi rug in a room at golden hour.
Every choice moves three numbers at once: the price, the maker-hours, and the wait. Change the timber and an oil sweep runs across the grain; “See the joinery” pulls it apart to show the mortise and tenon.
Why it matters commercially
Cost per year. KES 2,050 against KES 6,167 for the import, and after thirty years you still own a chair. It is the only frame in which the expensive one wins, and it is honest.
The specification travels. The order email arrives with timber, seat, size, hours, lead time and total already in it.
What it demonstrates
A real-time 3D product model, a real configurator, and pricing logic that a client’s sales team can actually stand behind.
Sector study, Fintech, 2026
Tuma
Our own build, not a client. A fictional London-to-Nairobi payment rail, built because fintech sites are all claims and no evidence. So this one does not describe the product. It runs it.
Sector
Fintech & crypto
Status
Demonstration
Settlement shown
Real time, not sped up
Styling
A live globe, not Web3 neon
The problem
Instant settlement. Bank-grade security. Nobody proves anything, and after the last few years nobody in this industry is owed the benefit of the doubt.
What we built
Type an amount, press send, and watch the payment fly the great circle from London to the Kenyan city you pick, on a globe lit by the real sun, with city lights on the night side. A clock counts in real time and each stage lights as the payment passes it. The bank’s route crawls through its correspondents beside it and has barely left London when Tuma lands.
The clock is not sped up. Eleven seconds takes eleven seconds, because the whole point is that the visitor times it themselves.
Why it matters commercially
It does not look like Web3. Black-and-neon now reads as risk to exactly the audience that has to hand over money. This is built to look like a bank that works.
Crypto is named, not hidden. USDC, settlement on Base, and a plain sentence saying the customer never touches it.
What it demonstrates
Interface as proof rather than claim, real-time state, and restraint in a sector that has none.

Real-time 3D, ray-traced fire
Photography
None needed: all rendered
The problem
Jewellery online loses the sale on scale and sparkle. Every stone looks the same size in a photo, and none of them move.
What we built
The ring stands on a velvet cushion on a jeweller’s bench at night, with Nairobi out of focus in the window. Your pointer moves a real bench lamp: the metal reflects the studio, the cut stone splits the light into colour and throws its fire across the bench. Pick up the loupe, or press L, for a ten-times look through a second lens.
A True Size view calibrates the screen against a bank card, then draws the ring on a finger at its real millimetre size, every carat side by side.
Why it matters commercially
Every combination exists without a shoot. Four metals, four stones and four carat weights, and not one photograph.
Honesty as a selling point. Each stone has a plain-words weakness: tanzanite is soft, emeralds are oiled, lab diamonds don't hold resale value.
What it demonstrates
A custom shader renderer, physical calibration in the browser, and a specification that travels with the enquiry.

Campus
Live 3D, lit by the real day
Fees
Shown in full, to graduation
The problem
School sites answer neither question that decides it: what will my child's day actually be like, and what will this really cost, all in?
What we built
The campus is a 3D model in its leafy suburb, a hedge round the grounds, the road outside, tile-roofed houses among jacaranda and the Ngong Hills on the skyline. The sun follows the school day, around 140 students move between lessons, and the camera can follow “your child” along the real timetable from drop-off to the last bell.
Tap a building to lift its roof and look inside. The fees section gives the first year and the total to graduation, with extras and the annual rise built in.
Why it matters commercially
It answers the admissions inbox. "What's a typical day?" and "What's the total?" are the two emails admissions teams answer most.
Enquiries arrive qualified. Age, section, extras and the family's own fee total come with the message.
What it demonstrates
A real-time 3D campus driven by a real timetable, roofs that open on demand, and a camera that follows one child through the day.

32 teeth in 3D, clinical rules
Claims
No outcome promises
The problem
Before booking a flight, a patient needs three answers: what they need, how many trips and days it takes, and whether it's really cheaper once travel is paid for.
What we built
Patients turn a 3D mouth in a quiet treatment room in Nairobi and tap their own teeth to build a plan. Each treatment plays out on the tooth itself, and the dental light follows your pointer. Switch to X-ray and the room dims while the panoramic film lights up behind the patient.
Clinical rules are built in, such as veneers only on front teeth, and implants automatically become two trips with a healing gap. The page compares treatment plus flights and hotel with typical fees at home, and says plainly when home is cheaper.
Why it matters commercially
Honesty converts. Telling a patient not to travel for one crown is what makes them believe the saving on eight veneers.
Built for health advertising rules. No outcome claims, and every estimate says a dentist confirms the plan from X-rays first.
What it demonstrates
A rules-aware 3D treatment model, date and trip logic, and regulated-sector copywriting.

Demonstration
Sites mapped
51, across five regions
Misses shown
One per region
The problem
A programme officer checks the website before a grant decision. They want to know where the money went and what it did.
What we built
A landscape of five regions under Kenya’s real sky, day or night, where every site is a column of light sized by spend, people reached or cost per person, and beside each column stands what the money built: a solar borehole, a school, a clinic, a greenhouse. Pick a site and the columns sink so you look down on the village itself.
“Follow your dollar” splits any gift into programmes, fundraising and admin, then into real outputs. Open funding gaps name the projects still short of money.
Why it matters commercially
It survives due diligence. The audited split, cost per person and the document pack are on the page, not behind an email.
Showing the misses builds trust. A failed borehole on the map is what makes the good numbers believable.
What it demonstrates
Data-driven real-time 3D that shows the thing built, not just the bar chart, animated metric switching, and transparency designed into the interface.

Demonstration
Guests
20 to 220, on a crater lake
Pricing
On every free date
The problem
Venue sites answer with a gallery and "contact us for pricing". Couples want to know if their guests fit, if their date is free, and what it all costs.
What we built
The venue sits at the head of a bay on a Rift Valley crater lake, in 3D: yellow fever trees on the shore, flamingos wading in a pink band and crossing in a flock, the crater wall closing round the far end. Slide the guest count and chairs drop onto the lawn and tables fill the pavilion; move from 4 pm to golden hour to night and the guests walk from the ceremony to the deck to the pavilion.
A live calendar prices every free date, and the package builder gives the total, the cost per guest and the actual deposit dates.
Why it matters commercially
Enquiries arrive decided. Date, guest count, package and budget are agreed on screen before the planner picks up.
Low season sells itself. A price on every date does more than a discount banner.
What it demonstrates
A 3D scene that rebuilds from one number, time-of-day relighting with guests who move through it, and calendar and payment-schedule logic.
