Why companion apps are hard to build

Development costs are prohibitive

Hiring iOS and Android developers to build a study app costs $50K-$200K. Then you need ongoing maintenance, updates, and bug fixes. Most publishers can't justify the investment.

Content updates take too long

Textbook revised? Errata discovered? With traditional app development, every content change requires developers, resubmission to app stores, and weeks of waiting. Your students are learning from outdated material.

Students want mobile-first learning

PDFs and ebooks don't work for active study. Students want practice questions, spaced repetition, and progress tracking—but building that functionality from scratch is a separate software project.

From manuscript to mobile app in days, not months

Kikodo turns your existing content into interactive mobile study apps—without requiring a development team or six-figure budget.

How it works

From your textbook to finished app

📚
Step 1
Upload your content

PDFs, Word docs, PowerPoints—we extract your text, figures, and structure. Works with textbooks, study guides, lecture notes, or course materials.

Step 2
AI generates interactive content

Our system creates practice questions, explanations, and feedback based on your material. You review, edit, and approve everything before students see it.

(For exam prep or certification content, our team reviews outputs with you.)

📱
Step 3
Launch your branded app

Your logo, your colors, your branding. Publish to iOS and Android app stores. Students download it like any other app. You control access and pricing.
