Big companies have a Chief Data Officer and a team of analysts. Everyone else has a spreadsheet and a hunch. Kimo is the data officer for the rest of us: it connects your sources, keeps the definitions straight and answers in plain language.
Make trustworthy answers as easy as asking a colleague, for growth teams, finance teams and mission teams who will never have a data team of their own.
Two and a half years, two offices, one stubborn idea: data tools should be built for the people asking the questions.
Maya ran growth at a scale-up and spent Mondays rebuilding the same spreadsheet. Théo had built data platforms for a decade. They started Kimo to give every team the data officer they could never hire.
The mascot started as a doodle on a whiteboard: a small, curious creature that reads every table so you don’t have to. It stuck.
Search Console, Stripe and PostgreSQL. Ten marketing teams used it daily; we sat next to them and rewrote the onboarding four times.
Self-serve signup, 20 connectors and the first version of Ask Kimo. 400 workspaces in the first month.
Finance teams kept asking for the same thing marketers loved, so we built a revenue model and opened a London office for our UK customers.
A European maritime authority asked if Kimo could run without the internet. Six months later, Defense Intelligence shipped on-prem with signed offline bundles.
Marketing, Business Intelligence and Defense Intelligence, each with its own Kimo, all sharing one semantic layer.
Each product has its own Kimo, tuned to the people it works with. Hover a card and say hello.
Endlessly curious and slightly over-caffeinated. Sky reads every search query before breakfast and gets genuinely excited about a 0.4-point CTR bump.
Every click has a story. I just read it out loud.Meet Kimo Marketing
Calm, precise, quietly funny. Navy reconciles Stripe with the CRM for fun, never rounds before the last step, and keeps a fountain pen for board meetings.
A number you can’t explain is just a rumor.Meet Kimo Business Intelligence
Few words, sharp eyes. Steel never phones home, keeps its own clock in Zulu time and can tell a transponder gap from a coastline shadow at a glance.
Nothing leaves the enclave. Not even me.Meet Kimo Defense Intelligence
They decide what we build, what we don’t, and who we hire.
Nobody wants a dashboard. They want to know what happened and what to do next. We measure ourselves by questions answered.
If two people get two different MRRs, we failed. The semantic layer is not a feature, it is the product.
Least privilege, EU hosting by default, on-prem when it matters. We never train on customer data. Ever.
Data tools are allowed to be lovely. The mascot is a promise: if it feels like work, we are not done.
Small releases, every week, written up honestly in the changelog. Momentum compounds.
Every engineer does a customer call each month. The best roadmap is a screen share.
