Ukama

The platform for micro-operators

Visit Ukama

Ukama is a platform that enables local organizations to deploy and operate managed LTE networks in areas not reached by traditional telecom. It solves the complexity of building a mobile network by combining hardware, software, and operational support into a single system, turning a power source and backhaul connection into multi-kilometre mobile coverage.

The platform includes field-ready LTE nodes, antennas, radios, a radio access network (RAN), and a mobile core. It also provides SIM provisioning, data plan management, billing with local payment integration, and a monitoring console for network health, usage, and alarms. The system is designed to be managed remotely, with support for software updates and incident escalation.

Ukama is built for local organizations such as power companies, internet service providers, community networks, remote enterprises, and NGOs that already have sites, power, backhaul, or local customer relationships. The platform is offered as a managed service; the website does not specify free plans, trials, or pricing models.
