BirBir
Peer-to-peer classifieds platform for Uzbekistan's market
About BirBir
BirBir is a peer-to-peer (P2P) classifieds platform operating in Uzbekistan, designed to facilitate direct transactions for goods and services. The company was founded in 2023 by Alexander Pekin, a fintech entrepreneur, and Alexander Bayzarov, an edtech strategist. Their goal was to address a gap in Uzbekistan's e-commerce landscape for a mobile-first, user-friendly solution for buying and selling that bypasses intermediaries.
Read full description
The platform operates on a horizontal classifieds model, allowing users to trade a wide variety of items, from high-frequency goods like clothing and electronics to high-value assets such as vehicles and real estate. This approach contrasts with marketplaces that may charge commissions, as BirBir's model focuses on connecting buyers and sellers directly. The business generates revenue primarily through advertising tools that allow users to increase the visibility of their listings. The platform supports local languages and is integrated with Telegram, a widely used messaging app in the region, to streamline communication and negotiations between users.
Since its launch, BirBir has attracted significant user engagement, reporting over 500,000 active monthly users and three million monthly sessions by May 2025. A key area of focus for the company has been the automotive market, providing a digital alternative to informal sales channels for used cars. In May 2025, BirBir announced it had secured $10 million in a funding round. The company plans to use this capital to enhance its product offerings, scale its team, introduce AI-driven features for security and user experience, and expand its footprint into the broader Central Asian market.
