Two sides · One door · ひとつの扉

開いた。通じた

Opened. Understood.

A question about your stay. A change to your plans. A detail you want to get right. Tell Broc what you need from a participating business. Broc helps you communicate in your language and brings the reply back.

The real problem

A simple request can take a lot of explaining.

Dates, details, language and a question still waiting for an answer. Both sides need to understand the same thing.

お店側 · The business

“What does the guest need to know?”

Owners, ryokan, restaurants, tour operators

You need the relevant dates, the request and any conditions before you can answer. Availability and terms remain your decision.

日本語でRead the request and write your reply through Broc’s secure link or inbox.

How Broc works

A clear request. A business decision. An understandable reply.

01

Helps shape the request

Explain what you need. Broc helps put the relevant details into a message for the business, and asks when something needs clarifying.

02

The business decides

Staff read the request, check their availability and terms, and write their own reply. Broc does not approve it for them.

03

Brings the answer back

Read what the business said in your language, with the original reply available in the conversation. Continue if a decision or another question remains.

Keep the conversation moving, with people in control.
