Verify the developer before you wire money overseas.

You can't fly out. You can't walk the land. And once your wire crosses borders, it doesn't come back. Bektu sends the developer a short, neutral due-diligence inquiry on your behalf, asks for evidence in writing, and records the response, before you commit a single dollar.

The biggest money decision of your life is also the one with the least information.

Foreign buyers face a structural information gap. You can't fly out to inspect. The website tells you only what the developer wants you to know. The agent on WhatsApp is friendly. And the moment you contact a developer yourself, they have your name, your email, your country, and a sales script aimed at you. Once a wire crosses borders, recovering it across legal systems is rarely realistic, regardless of what happened. Bektu exists to even out that information gap, in writing, before any money moves.

Why a cross-border purchase is structurally different
  • You cannot fly out, walk the land, knock on the office door, or look anyone in the eye
  • Brochures, permits, renders, and websites can be reproduced. Verifiable evidence is harder to fake.
  • The corporate structure behind a project is rarely visible from the marketing site
  • The moment you contact a developer yourself, they have your name, email, country, and a sales script aimed at you
  • Once a wire crosses borders, recovering it across legal systems is rarely realistic, regardless of what happened
How it works

We ask the questions. You stay anonymous.

Open any developer profile and click Verify. Bektu drafts a short, neutral due-diligence questionnaire tailored to that developer and emails it from a Bektu address on your behalf. The developer never sees your name, your email, your country, or your IP. Their reply, or the absence of one, is recorded on the developer's public profile so every future buyer can see what was asked and what was answered.

1. You tell us which developer to verify

Optional: tell Bektu what you specifically want clarified. We tailor the questions accordingly. $29 per developer.

2. Bektu emails them. You stay anonymous.

We ask for registered legal entity, named directors, completed buildings with addresses, banking and escrow protection, and project permits. The developer never sees you.

3. The response is on the record

Bektu's AI summarizes the response, flags missing or vague answers, and posts the full reply on the developer's profile. Future buyers see exactly what was asked and what was answered.

Here is the email we send

Six standard due-diligence questions. A serious developer can answer them in an afternoon.

Bektu drafts the inquiry, signs it from a Bektu address, and sends it to the developer's public email. Your name, your email, your country, your IP, none of it ever appears in the message. The developer only sees that an anonymous buyer is asking for verification.

Here is what you see

A case file. Not a sales funnel.

Every inquiry gets a private tracker page only you can open. Bektu logs every step on your behalf: when the email was sent, when it was delivered, when the developer opened it, what they replied, what documents they attached, and what our AI made of the response. If they go silent, that is on the page too.

On the record

Whether they answer or not, it becomes part of the profile.

When a developer does not reply within 7 days, Bektu records it as no response on the public profile. Six questions, no answer in writing. Future buyers see the same record on the same page.

  • We follow up once after 3 days, then once after 7. If there is still no answer, the case is closed as no response.
  • Inquiry, follow-ups, and the final outcome are timestamped on the developer's public Bektu profile.
  • Every inquiry adds to the public record so future buyers benefit from the same evidence.

The verification layer for global real estate developers

Bektu helps foreign buyers check who a real estate developer is, what they have delivered, and how the people and entities behind a project connect.

See who the real estate developer is

Structured profiles show the developer behind the project, the entities involved, and the partners they repeatedly work with.

See what they have actually delivered

Projects are shown in context so you can review delivery history, related developments, and patterns across the developer’s track record.

Analyze claims and supporting evidence

AI helps extract claims, project details, and supporting information from websites and documents when structured data is missing.

Understand how everything connects

A normalized data layer connects developers, projects, SPVs, landowners, and partners across markets so you can see the full picture.

About Bektu

Bektu is a developer intelligence platform: we map developers, projects, and related entities so foreign buyers can see who is accountable for delivery. Bektu does not sell property or give investment advice—we surface transparency signals and evidence so you can decide what to trust.

Our approach

Built for the moment of maximum vulnerability: right before the wire transfer

Bektu is designed for cross-border buyers who need verifiable answers from a developer without revealing who they are. We focus on the trust and credibility signals that are hard to fabricate on demand: registered legal entity, named directors, completed buildings with public addresses, and proper escrow for buyer funds.

How we protect the buyer
  • We email the developer. The buyer stays anonymous through the whole exchange.
  • Questions target documents and registry numbers, not opinions
  • Replies, and silences, are posted publicly so every future buyer benefits
  • AI flags vague, evasive, or off-topic answers without inventing facts
FAQ

What buyers ask before they click verify

No. The email comes from a Bektu address. It says an anonymous buyer is making the inquiry. Your name, email, country, and IP never appear in the message, the headers, or anywhere the developer can see.

Bektu follows up after 3 days, then again after 7. If there is still no response, the case is locked as no-response and that is logged on the developer's public profile. Six questions, no answer, in writing. Future buyers see it.

They can try, but the questions are designed to be hard to fake. We ask for registry numbers, named directors, addresses of completed buildings, banking detail, and permit references. Vague or evasive answers are flagged by AI and visible on the case page.

Not yet. We are expanding market by market. If the developer is not on Bektu, you can submit their website and we will index them and run the inquiry. The first inquiry on a new developer is free.

No. Bektu is not a marketplace, listing site, or brokerage. We do not sell homes or connect buyers with agents. Bektu is a verification and transparency platform for the moment right before you wire money overseas.

We translate the response and summarize it in English on your tracker page. The original is preserved verbatim so you can share it with a local lawyer.

Verify before you wire. Stay anonymous while you do.
