Five of our first engineers started as interns.
Within a year they were shipping production apps to the App Store and Google Play, leading client builds and reviewing each other’s code.
Write code.Learn code.No code.
We design, build and run software for organisations in the UK, the Middle East and Africa, and we grow the people who build it.
Kokoodi is ko + koodi. In Yoruba, ko means to write, to learn, or to reject, and koodi is how we say code. Some problems need code written, some need people taught, and some need no code at all.

What we buildLondon · Dubai · Lagos
Product engineering
We build products, end to end.
From the first sketch to the app stores and the support desk afterwards, built with AI in the loop. Web and mobile platforms, Microsoft 365 add-ins and automation that run care providers, schools, public bodies, events and churches every day, backed by more than 20 years on the Microsoft stack and a company that has been shipping since 2014.
An operating system for churches: members, events and check-in, giving, rotas, campaigns over email, SMS and WhatsApp, and an AI assistant that acts on plain-English requests.
Hotel buyers matched with the right suppliers
A matchmaking and scheduling platform that screens both sides, suggests matches and builds each delegate’s meeting schedule for international trade events, plus the organiser’s new website.
Taking a care provider off paper forms and WhatsApp
Recruitment and onboarding, payroll checks and staff messaging in one portal that opens as a Teams tab in the office and as an app on carers’ phones, with AI tidying visit notes.
Health information people can trust, in their own language
A national health education platform pairing clinically reviewed articles with animated video series, produced through our own studio pipeline.
Structured decisions, drafted consistently
Word add-ins that guide members of a UK justice body through structured decisions and directions, with quick fill and validation. In daily use for years.
From idea to finished draft
An AI-assisted writing platform for authors and the coaches who support them.
A CV builder used in live workshops
An AI career toolkit coaches use with their clients in the room, alongside the coach’s website.
Schools that can update their own sites
Websites for special schools with content written in SharePoint and an admin area that opens inside the school’s Microsoft 365.
A company run from inside Teams
Kokoodi Ops, our own HR, recruitment, payroll and support platform, with Kodi, our AI assistant, doing the chasing. We build for ourselves what we build for clients.

Where our experience comes from
Before and alongside Kokoodi, our leadership has built and run document automation and Office platforms for Magic Circle law firms, delivered for a global credit ratings agency, a regulated fintech in the FCA sandbox and UK justice and government bodies, and supported thousands of users across dozens of offices. That enterprise discipline is what we bring to every build, large or small.
For organisations
A whole team, and the judgement to write less code.
Products, platforms, automation and studio work for care providers, schools, law firms, public bodies, charities and businesses in the UK, the Middle East and Africa. We will tell you when a no-code flow does the job, and build custom only when it pays back.
No-code automation
Power Automate, Copilot agents, Forms, Lists, approvals and workflows that your own team can run and change.
Microsoft 365, made to fit
Office add-ins, template and document automation, Teams tabs and bots, SharePoint and Graph integrations.
Platforms and apps
Operations platforms, portals, booking, matching and scheduling, member apps, and iOS and Android apps.
AI that does the dull work
Assistants, drafting, note clean-up, triage and data checks, inside the tools people already use.
Business systems
ERP, e-commerce, and finance, CRM, events and HR integrations, with the data migration that comes with them.
Teams on retainer
One specialist or a whole product team, accountable through our UK company and Cyber Essentials certified.

One of our frontend engineers now leads discovery and requirements, sitting with clients to decide what gets built.
From intern to the person who looks after interns.
An engineer who joined as an intern supervised our first summer camp and now coordinates our interns.
We hire across the whole of modern software, not just engineering: frontend, backend and mobile, AI engineering, product and delivery, UX and UI design, brand, QA and testing, DevOps and cloud, automation and operations, animation and AI video, writing and content, and marketing.
Kokoodi Academy opens in 2027 for graduates and career changers. Hackathons are planned for 2027, with sponsors and partners welcome. Almost everyone we hire completes a short, practical assessment: we look at what you build, not where you studied.
Kokoodi Studio
Stories, animation and AI video, in the languages people speak.
Our studio produces animated educational series with recurring characters, explainers, training and campaign videos. Expert-checked content becomes a script, a story and a finished film through a pipeline our engineers built, with every piece reviewed before release and localised for the people it is for.
We run the heavy lifting on our own AI engine, so we can afford the many attempts good AI video takes. Briefs welcome at hello@kokoodi.com.
