About Suprise
Suprise Nkosi is the founder of Chainbook. Suprise holds a BCom Accounting degree from the University of the Witwatersrand and brings over eight years of hands-on software development experience. That rare intersection of financial rigour and engineering precision became the foundation of Chainbook.
Suprise founded Chainbook on a single conviction: that African professionals deserve world-class business software. Drawing on a background in accounting, financial services and systems design, Suprise set out to close the gap between ambition and capability, building tools that give businesses the clarity they need to make truly smart decisions.
Today, Chainbook builds intelligent systems for accountants, psychologists, GPs, hoteliers and financial advisors, from property and loan management to financial accounting.
