Media monitoring in Kenya

Social Light monitors Kenya's newspapers, radio, television, online news and social media, in English and Swahili, and tells you about a story while you can still act on it.

Kenya's media

Kenya has strong national media groups in print, television and online, and a busy radio sector with Swahili and vernacular stations that often carry a story first.

Questions

Do you monitor Kenya's local-language media?

Yes. Coverage is read in the language it was published in, including English and Swahili, and briefs are written in English.

How quickly will I hear about a story?

Alerts go out at the moment a story publishes, across every channel in your scope, rather than in a digest the next morning.

Can I try Social Light before paying?

Yes. Creating an account takes about ten minutes and does not ask for a card. Nothing is charged until you choose a package. You can also book a demo, or take our free media intelligence assessment.
