Brio is a product company based in Nairobi, Kenya.
Our story
Build it, launch it, and keep making it better.
Brio was founded by software engineer Brian Rotich to build and launch products and to keep improving them after launch.
Today Brio runs three products: Study Cue, a set of free AI study tools; Scenerati, a social network for film lovers; and Brio Search, a fast, private search engine tuned for Kenya.
What we care about
Useful first
Every product starts with a real problem. Study Cue puts study tools in one place, and you can start using them without signing up.
Private by default
Brio Search uses no cookies and no accounts, and only counts popular searches anonymously. It does not build a profile of you.
Built for Kenya, open to the world
Brio Search tunes its results for visitors in Kenya, while everyone else gets worldwide results. Our products are made for anyone.
