About Brikl

Built for every
vendor who built
a business on
WhatsApp.

We built Brikl because we watched great businesses get denied loans they deserved — not because they weren't making money, but because they couldn't prove it.

The Problem

Millions of
vendors.
No records.

Over 40 million Nigerians run businesses entirely on WhatsApp. Clothes, phones, food, shoes, gifts — billions of naira in transactions, every single day.

But none of it is recorded. Every quote sent in WhatsApp disappears into a conversation. Every receipt screenshot gets buried. When these vendors walk into a bank or apply for TEF, they have nothing to show.

They make real money. They have real clients. But to any financial institution, they don't exist.

Brikl changes that. We built an AI business assistant that lives inside WhatsApp and silently records every sale, every quote, every payment — automatically, without any extra effort from the vendor.

Our Story

Why Brikl exists.

In 2024, we spent six months interviewing vendors on Instagram Live, at Balogun Market, in church WhatsApp groups. We weren't looking for feedback on a product — we didn't have one yet. We were trying to understand a problem.

What we found was consistent: vendors were making real money and getting rejected by banks and grant programmes because they had no documentation. A clothes vendor in Surulere doing ₦6 million a month had no proof of income. A gadget dealer in Alaba doing ₦20 million a year was invisible to every Nigerian lender.

"I know my business is good. I just can't prove it to anyone who matters."

We built Brikl to solve that. An AI assistant that lives inside WhatsApp — the tool vendors already use — and builds their financial history silently, automatically, every single day. No app to download. No dashboard to log into. No extra work.

Every sale is a record. Every record is a brick. And enough bricks builds something that banks, investors, and funding institutions can finally recognise as a real business.

Our Values

What we stand for.

Everything we build is guided by one belief: that every vendor running a business on their phone deserves the same financial tools as a company with an office and an accountant.

01

Friction is the enemy

If a vendor has to download an app, create a login, or remember to log in, we've already failed. Brikl works where you already are.

02

Radical affordability

₦2,500/month isn't a token price — it's the maximum we believe any vendor should ever pay to build a financial history.

03

Invisible infrastructure

The best tool is one you never think about. Brikl works silently in the background so you can focus on selling.

04

Vendor-first

Every feature we build starts with a single question: does this make the vendor's life better? Not our metrics. Their life.

05

Respect for hustle

Our users work incredibly hard. They don't need lectures on bookkeeping. They need a tool that does it for them while they sell.

06

Every brick counts

One recorded sale seems small. But 90 recorded sales a month, for 12 months, is the foundation that opens every door.

We built Brikl
for you.

Every vendor. Every product. Every WhatsApp chat in Nigeria.
