Basket keeps the shopping decision in your browser

A local-first shopping assistant that searches public catalogues from African brands, ranks products on-device, and hands checkout back to the merchants.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-27 issue.

Field notes

The browser downloads public catalogues and performs ranking locally rather than sending searches to a central search server. A shopper can select a destination, review delivery evidence, combine items from multiple shops, and then approve a merchant handoff; Basket says payment details never pass through its interface. WebMCP and browser-native agent options are presented as conditional capabilities, while the participating merchants and their actual inventory are not named in the extracted page.
