What clients say after we deliver.
Leadership and product teams on what it is like to work with Canvas & Pixels.
Peony
They had the app on both stores in a month.
“I'd been burned before, so I came in skeptical. First call they skipped the pitch and just started asking questions — good ones. By the time we wrapped I already trusted them. They had the app on both stores in a month. My staff use it every day. When it was time to build the admin dashboard, there was no question who we were calling.”

ProjectBist
Fixed everything, sorted the architecture, and actually shipped.
“Previous devs left the project in pieces — wallets broken, messaging unreliable, search barely working. C&P came in, figured out what was going on faster than I expected, and just got to work. Fixed everything, sorted the architecture, and actually shipped the product. No drama, no excuses.”

Why Canvas & Pixels
Why organizations trust us with the work that matters most.
Every discipline, one team.
Consulting, branding, design and engineering under one roof. One contract, one accountable lead and no hand-offs between agencies that do not talk to each other.
We turn around difficult projects.
When a previous vendor has left a product or system in a difficult state, we step in. We audit, stabilize and rebuild, with full transparency about what we find and what it takes to fix it.
Enterprise-grade delivery.
Structured discovery, clear milestones, documented handovers and regular reporting to stakeholders. The governance large organizations expect, with the speed they rarely get.
Built for regulated industries.
Our roots are in fintech and other regulated, high-stakes systems where mistakes are expensive. Security, compliance and confidentiality are a baseline, not an upsell.
Global by default.
Headquartered in Lagos, delivering for clients across Africa, Europe and North America. We work across timezones and to the standard of any market we operate in.
Partners long after launch.
Retainers, managed support and continuous improvement keep what we deliver performing, secure and evolving with your business long after handover.
