01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
kaikoo was a Spanish esports platform for players and coaches, founded in summer 2020 in Málaga/Barcelona by Daniel Ruiz-Giménez Coderch and co-founders. It developed an AI-powered coaching product focused on League of Legends: detecting players' in-game mistakes with big-data analytics and delivering personalized training routines, plus connectivity and automated coaching tools. It raised about $1 million to $1.3 million across rounds including a seed in December 2022, backed by Sportboost, Programa Minerva, and Demium. The company is now shut down and listed as inactive, though no shutdown announcement or failure analysis from an independent source could be found.
