About Codigoo
We build the product, then we make it grow
Codigoo is a software development house and a marketing agency in one team. That combination is unusual, and it is the whole point.
The argument
Why both disciplines
The usual arrangement is a development agency to build the product and a marketing agency to promote it. The client ends up as the translator between them — explaining the roadmap to the marketers and the campaign to the engineers, and absorbing the cost when the two do not line up.
We do both. The people who built your product are the people measuring how it performs, which means a conversion problem gets fixed in the product rather than papered over with more ad spend.
- The build half
- Engineers and designers who scope, architect and ship the product — web, mobile, integrations and the internal tools behind them.
- The growth half
- Strategists who then take it to market and report against revenue, with the ability to change the product rather than only the campaign.
About Codigoo
Engineers, designers and growth specialists in one team — from the first workshop to the traffic six months after launch.
What we are not
We are not the cheapest option, and we are not a body shop that will take any brief. We work best with companies that have a real business outcome in mind and want a team that will argue with them about how to reach it.
Arabic and English, from the first screen
Bilingual is a structural decision, not a translation task. Right-to-left layout changes navigation, forms, charts, invoices and PDF output; Arabic typography needs its own type scale; and Arabic search demand does not match a translated keyword list. Retrofitting any of that into a finished product is close to rebuilding it.
Who we work best with
Companies with a real commercial objective and someone empowered to make decisions about it — an operations business whose processes have outgrown its spreadsheets, a retailer whose traffic is not converting, a founder with a product idea that has never been put in front of a user, or a team that has launched something and now needs it maintained by people who are accountable for uptime.
How we work
How an engagement actually runs
Every project starts with a paid discovery workshop: two days with the people who own the problem, ending in a written scope, a real estimate and an architecture recommendation. Where the honest recommendation is not to build the thing, that is what the document says.
From there the work runs in two-week iterations, and each one ends in something you can open and use — not a percentage complete. Your project portal shows what shipped, what is next and what is blocked, so finding out where a project stands never requires a meeting.
Ownership
You own everything we build
The source code sits in your repository with its history intact. The infrastructure is defined as code, the deployment pipelines and credentials are handed over documented, and the domains, cloud accounts and app-store listings are yours from the first day rather than ours.
There is no Codigoo platform you are locked into and no licence under which ceasing to pay us also means losing your software. If you move the work in-house or to another supplier, everything they need is already in your hands — and we will help with the handover rather than obstruct it.
The repository
Your account, your organisation, the full commit history intact.
Infrastructure as code
The whole environment reproducible from the files in that repository.
Deployment pipelines
Build, test and release automated, and documented in plain language.
Every credential
Handed over in a password manager you control, not pasted into email.
Domains and cloud accounts
Registered in your name from day one, never held on your behalf.
App store listings
Published under your developer account, so you keep the reviews and the ranking.
A tested restore procedure
Backups you can actually restore from, because we have restored from them.
The written handover
Architecture decisions, integrations and known trade-offs, for whoever comes next.
