“What our solution does is help in targets and not just what a beneficiary needs, but what the community wants,” said Robert Okine, CEO and Founder of Bewsys during the Digital Innovation and Partnerships event held in Nairobi.
There is no doubt that One of the key challenges faced by social protection programs worldwide is the efficient management of beneficiary data. Traditional paper-based systems are not only time-consuming but also prone to errors and fraud.
Alleviate eliminates these bottlenecks by providing a robust digital platform for capturing accurate and up-to-date information. Through mobile devices and web applications, field workers can directly input data, ensuring real-time updates and minimizing the risk of duplication or misinformation.
It will enable the government and other organizations to collect, verify, and update data on beneficiaries of various social programs, such as cash transfers, health insurance, and education subsidies.

“At Bewsys we transform communities through collaborating with partners globally to create lasting impact,” said Okine adding that in the social impact world, organizations like to do good and feel good about it.
The launch of Alleviate is aligned with Kenya’s vision to achieve universal social protection for all Kenyans by 2030. According to Bewsys, their presence in Kenya is to deepen the relationship they have within.
Transparency and accountability are the cornerstones of any effective social protection program. Alleviate takes this commitment seriously by providing real-time visibility into beneficiary data, resource distribution, and program performance.
This transparency not only fosters public trust but also serves as a deterrent against potential corruption. Donors, governmental agencies, and citizens can now monitor program progress, ensuring that the allocated resources reach the intended recipients.
