Made in Ethiopia, for every business here

Your whole business in one book, bridged to Ethiopia's digital economy.

Adera runs your daily operations, keeps your money and tax in order, and connects your records to banks, wallets, the Ministry of Revenues and EFDA. A shop, a pharmacy, a distributor or a rider: one app, checked every day.

Free to try in practice mode. Nothing is real until you switch to live.
Our vision Bridge the digital gap.
Our missionEnable every player in the market.

From a rider with one telebirr account to a distributor with branches: one trusted book, and a bridge from it to Ethiopia's banks, wallets and authorities.

The gap

Most businesses here run on paper, screenshots and memory.

The money is digital: telebirr, CBE, eBirr and more. The records are not. So nobody can prove what was sold, what was paid or what is owed. Adera closes that gap.

Without Adera

  • Sales in a notebook; stock counted when someone has time
  • "I sent it": a payment screenshot nobody can check
  • Cash short at night, and no one knows why
  • Credit given on trust, forgotten in weeks
  • VAT and withholding rebuilt at month end, in a hurry

With Adera

  • Every sale checked three ways: goods out, money in, tax right
  • Payments proven against the bank or wallet, not a screenshot
  • Close the day: expected against counted, missing or over, in plain words
  • A credit book that knows who owes, how much, and how late
  • The VAT month ready for your accountant, by Ethiopian calendar
What Adera does

Four parts, one book. Use one, or all four.

Every part writes into the same ledger, so nothing is typed twice and every number agrees with every other. Tap a part to see it at work.

Our promises

Trusted with what's yours.

አደራ means something entrusted to your care. That is the job.

Never moves your moneyIt records and proves. It never sends, holds or lends.
Never issues a tax numberFiscal numbers come from the authority, through accredited providers.
Your data stays in EthiopiaHosted in Addis Ababa. No personal data to foreign AI.
Nothing changed quietlyEvery correction leaves a trail your accountant can read.
For developers and bigger systems

One API for the Ethiopian systems that don't have one.

A small agent inside the network that holds the system, an outbox in the cloud, and one HTTP call for you. A practice sandbox answers at once.

# does my key work?
curl https://adera.com.et/v1/ping -H "Authorization: Bearer …"

# send records from your own system
curl -X POST https://adera.com.et/v1/ledger/batch \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer …" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"facts":[…]}'
Every connection and where it stands
SystemWhat comes backHowStatus
Banks and wallets
Verify that a payment actually arrived, check whose account a number belongs to, or list a day's credits — across every Ethiopian bank and wallet. 42 covered. It never moves money.
confirmationcloud to cloud live
CNET
Fiscal documents to CNET's Oracle ERP, through an agent on the office network. The accredited system issues the number; we carry the document there and the number back.

Relay to your own endpoint
Deliver each document to an HTTPS endpoint you choose — your own system, or a tool like Zapier, Make or n8n. Signed, queued and retried like everything else.
acknowledgementcloud to cloud live
Telegram
Post each document into a Telegram chat or group as it is raised. Works today, cloud to cloud, with no agent and nobody else's approval.

Commercial Bank of Ethiopia
Confirm a transfer against a statement, so a wholesaler can release goods on a payment that has actually landed rather than on a screenshot.

EFDA
Product registration and batch verification, so an importer can prove a batch is registered before it is sold rather than after an inspection.

Ethiopian Customs declarations
Declaration lodgement and status, for importers who currently re-key every line from their own system into another.

Direct clearance with the revenue authority's own system, for companies whose accredited route is not through a vendor ERP.

"Coming" means declared, not built. The API refuses it rather than queue something that would never be delivered.
