An AI koi broker: scores Japanese auction fish, bids for you, and lands them abroad.
Koi keepers buy young fish, called tategoi, on a bet about how the pattern will grow. Koimancer scores Japanese auction lots for pattern stability and lineage. Next it will bid within your ceiling and arrange export, quarantine and the flight through licensed partners. Every right and wrong call goes on a public ledger.
- Step 01
Scores every lot in the auction
Agents watch Japanese breeder and dealer auctions in Japanese and English and score each fish for pattern stability and lineage.
- Step 02
Writes your report and a bid ceiling
Each report has lineage notes, a speculative three-year render that is labelled as one, and the most we think the fish is worth.
- Step 03
Bids, then lands the fish abroad
Later, with licensed partners: bids within your ceiling, then export, health certificate, quarantine and the cargo flight, tracked to your door.
Built for koi hobbyists and dealers buying at online auctions.

Bidding within your ceiling

The fish, landed at home
Licensed exporter, vet certificate, quarantine and airfreight, booked and tracked until your fish arrives.
First up: Before a live auction closes, we post free reports on its fish in koi forums, so anyone can check our calls afterwards.
The world just changed.

What a person does
A licensed exporter in Japan buys and ships each fish, a vet signs the export health certificate, and a licensed broker files the import papers for a quarantine facility. A person signs every partner contract, and client funds sit with a payment provider.
Can you really tell how a koi will turn out?
Not for certain. Pattern development is uncertain and our renders are labelled as speculation. We make no accuracy claims until the public ledger shows how often we were right.
What if a fish dies in transit?
Live shipping carries real risk, from deaths in transit to KHV disease rules. Licensed exporters, vets and quarantine facilities handle each step, and brokerage only starts once an exporter partner signs.
Who holds my money for a bid?
Not us directly. Bid funds are held through a payment provider under escrow-like terms, and our agents only bid within the ceiling you set.
