What is BROKA

Commerce intelligence, not just a marketplace.

BROKA helps buyers discover listings, compare useful seller and product context, and connect directly with sellers. It does not process or hold buyer-seller payments.

The problem

Information rarely flows where it needs to go.

In many informal markets, buyers and sellers rarely interact directly. Intermediaries help bridge the gap — but they can also introduce significant cost, opacity and friction. A buyer paying KES 250,000 for something listed at KES 200,000 may not know where the extra KES 50,000 went.

Both sides often lack the context they need to make good decisions. The seller doesn't know what the buyer really values. The buyer doesn't know what the seller will actually accept. And trust has to be built from scratch every time.

BROKA is exploring a different model — one where technology provides the context, reduces the asymmetry and helps both sides reach better outcomes without requiring another layer of intermediaries.

Traditional model

− Multiple intermediaries
− Information asymmetry
− Opaque pricing
− Trust built on nothing
− Friction at every step
− Limited recourse

BROKA model

+ Direct buyer–seller contact
+ AI-assisted discovery
+ Seller-provided price context
+ Product details in one place
+ Reduced search friction
+ Payments arranged by the parties
What BROKA provides

One platform. Four capabilities.

Together, these form an intelligent commerce experience — not four separate tools.

01

Discover

Find products, sellers and opportunities that match what you actually need — not just what happens to be listed. Context-aware search, seller profiles and relevant market information.

Live
02

Understand

Compare useful product and seller details before deciding what to do next. Better information can support better decisions.

Live
03

Use Zeno

Zeno can help you clarify what you need, understand listing details and prepare questions for a seller.

Building
04

Connect

Contact the seller directly to discuss any purchase. Buyers and sellers agree payment and delivery themselves; BROKA does not process the sale.

Direct
Two perspectives, one platform

BROKA works for both sides.

For buyers

Find it. Understand it. Contact the seller.

  • Describe what you need in plain language

For sellers

List. Be discovered. Connect.

  • List products or services with minimal friction
