Why HEWA
A complete IDE, wherever you work.
Pay with M-Pesa
Top up credits from your phone — live today. More rails coming.
Low-bandwidth ready
Tuned for slow, intermittent networks with an offline file workflow.
Build in your language
The interface ships in 10 languages — so you build in the one you think in.
How it works
From idea to running code in three steps
-
Try it — first prompt free
Open the IDE and make your first build with one free prompt. See what HEWA does before you spend anything.
-
Top up like airtime
Sign up and top up with M-Pesa from ~12 KES per credit. Your first top-up earns a one-time +50 bonus credits. No subscription.
-
Build and ship, anywhere
Describe what you want; your agent plans the work and writes the files. Preview and run real code on any device, even a phone.
Agents turn ideas into code
Hand off tasks to HEWA while you make the decisions. Your agent reads the project, plans the work, and writes the files — right in your browser — then waits for your next instruction.
Models that match the work
HEWA Fast for daily building. HEWA Pro and HEWA Reason for hard problems. HEWA Africa for local context, HEWA Long for big codebases, HEWA Offline when you're disconnected. Pick the tier per task — or let HEWA decide.
Mobile-money payments, built in
M-Pesa top-ups are live today — pay for credits straight from your phone. Paystack, Flutterwave, MTN MoMo and Stripe are on the roadmap, each built in as a primitive, not a plugin you have to wire up.

Get started → The difference
Everything a desktop IDE has — without the setup
Most AI IDEs assume a fast machine, one payment method, and English. HEWA assumes none of that.

Prepaid, like airtime

Questions
Frequently asked questions
How do I get credits?
Your first prompt is free — no account needed. After that, sign up and top up with M-Pesa; your first top-up earns a one-time +50 bonus credits. No credit card and no subscription.
What devices does HEWA run on?
Any device with a browser — laptop, desktop, tablet, or phone. There’s nothing to install, so you can write and run real code wherever you are, and pick up on another device anytime.
Which languages are supported?
The HEWA interface ships in 10 languages: English, Swahili, French, Amharic, Hausa, Arabic, Yoruba, Zulu, Lingala and Tigrinya — so you can build in the language you think in.
How do payments and top-ups work?
You top up via M-Pesa from about 12 KES per credit (minimum 35), and your first top-up earns a one-time +50 bonus credits. You pay only for what you use — every action shows its price before it runs, and there is no subscription. More payment rails — Paystack, Flutterwave, MTN MoMo and Stripe — are on the roadmap.
Can I use HEWA on a slow connection?
Yes. HEWA is tuned for low-bandwidth and intermittent connections, with an offline file workflow so your edits are never lost when the network drops — useful during outages or load shedding.
