Classified ads are becoming popular and Ore Richard has taken to play in the niche, albeit with a twist. Unlike many regular classified ad websites, Kwilist allows users to advertise their vehicles by recording and uploading ad videos.

Kwilist is the perfect answer the buyers have been waiting for. It allows one who wants to buy a car to inspect the car right without travelling miles. Its a perfect solution against fraud.

Ore Richard, explaining more on their value proposition said given that anyone who really wants to sell a car very fast will not hesitate to upload a 200MB video if necessary, not everyone who wants to buy will be willing to exhaust that much bandwidth. As a result, Kwilist auto compresses uploaded videos to give great viewing quality and light-weight playback files. Hence, a 200MB video uploaded can be watched with less than 20MB.

Although Kwilist majors on video ads, it also supports conventional picture ads. Cheki, Jiji, and OLX play in the same market as Kwilist, but according to the founder, none does it exactly the same way.

Ore Richard Muyiwa runs the platform with Goke Oyedokun.
