About Koo
Koo was founded in March 2020, as a micro-blogging platform in Indian languages. Available in multiple Indian languages, Koo enables people from different regions in India to express themselves in their mother tongues. In a country where just 10% of India speaks English, theres a deep need for a social media platform that can deliver immersive language experiences to Indian users and help them connect with each other. Koo provides a stage for the voices of Indians who prefer to interact in Indian languages.
