THE PRODUCT
Creator outreach is slow, repetitive work: finding the right channels, checking each one is a fit, writing to them all and chasing replies.
Nakodo does the legwork. It writes a brief from your site, searches for creators or businesses that match, scores each one with its reasons and runs the conversation until someone says yes. The name comes from the Japanese 仲人, a go-between.
WHAT IT DOES
A brief from your website
Nakodo reads your site and writes a brief you can edit.
Search across platforms
Creators on YouTube, Instagram and TikTok, or businesses in the places you choose, like cafes within 10 km of Leeds.
Scored with reasons
Every match scored 0 to 100 on brief fit, engagement, upload frequency, audience location and comment quality.
Outreach done for you
It emails each one, follows up, answers their questions and introduces the ones who say yes.
You stay in control
Every first email waits an hour, so you can read it, change it or stop it.
Private by design
Brands never see or export creators' email addresses.

Deliverability engineering
Sending domains warm up gradually, every conversation gets its own address, and a bounce breaker pauses a campaign the moment emails start bouncing.
- 03
Working within platform limits
A scheduled job queue keeps searches inside YouTube's daily API quota, and data is deleted on schedule to meet its retention rules.
- 04
Local businesses from open data
Business campaigns query Overture Maps data with DuckDB to find places by category and distance.
