Does Peter Kibet take on consulting engagements?
Yes — Peter takes a small number of personal advisory engagements each quarter (AI strategy calls, fractional AI advisory, ambassador programme talks). Larger delivery projects run through Spidey Labs Limited at spideylabs.tech. Personal advisory rates are higher than Spidey Labs' hourly delivery rate because Peter's calendar time is scarce.
- 07
What is Claude Code Kenya?
Claude Code Kenya is the national developer community for engineers using Claude Code. Peter founded it in 2025 and organises meetups, workshops, and mentoring sessions in Nairobi. Details at claudekenya.org.

What is Mulinga Coffee Estate?
Mulinga Coffee Estate is a coffee farm near Kitale, Kenya, with 26,000+ coffee plants. Peter personally operates it and it serves as the first production tenant of MkulimaOS. The farm is the ground truth that keeps his agricultural software honest — he walks the estate, makes agronomy calls, and runs the P&L.
