What is Mtaani?

Mtaani is Kenya's local-first directory for businesses, services, and events. Discover what's near you, RSVP to events, and reach owners directly via WhatsApp.

A directory built for how Kenyans actually find things

Mtaani lets you discover the businesses, services, and events around you — from salons in Kasarani to weddings in Westlands — and reach the owner the way Kenyans already do business: WhatsApp. Every listing has a one-tap chat button, prefilled so the owner knows exactly which Mtaani listing brought you to them.

What's on Mtaani

Three core feeds: Businesses (cafes, salons, professional services, retail, more), Events (weekends, weddings, baby showers, conferences, live music), and Services (photographers, decorators, caterers, fitness coaches, repair pros). Each listing surfaces hours, photos, ratings, and direct contact.

Free for visitors, useful for owners

Discovering on Mtaani is free. For business owners, Mtaani is the lightest possible operating system: a public profile, a leads inbox that captures every WhatsApp click and booking, and conversion analytics so you can see what's working — without learning a new dashboard.
