Minimum clear space around the logo is equal to the height of the letter “k”.
On dark backgrounds, the wordmark is --sky (#CFE8FF). The dot stays --accent.
Never stretch, rotate, add effects, or change the font.
Minimum display size: 24px font-size.

We built the tool
we couldn't find.

Every creative and small business owner knows the feeling. Twelve tabs open. A calendar in one app, content in another, brand assets in a third, client messages scattered across four more. You spend half your day switching tools and the other half doing the work those tools were supposed to make easier.

We lived that life. We ran agencies and managed content for brands. We duct-taped HoneyBook to Notion to Later to Canva and called it a system. It wasn't. It was a tax on every hour we worked.

So we built Koza. One workspace that grows with you. Content planning and scheduling if you're just getting started. Client management, invoicing, and contracts when you're ready. Not another tool to add to the pile. The one that replaces the pile.

Koza is for anyone who creates content for a living. Social media managers juggling clients. Photographers booking shoots. Videographers managing productions. Agencies scaling to twenty accounts. The ones who know that “just use another app” is never the answer.

01

One tab, not twelve.

Every feature exists because it removes a subscription, not because it looks good on a feature page.

02

Built by operators.

We ran the agencies. We know what 6 AM content approvals feel like. Every decision comes from lived experience.

03

AI that earns its seat.

Oza doesn't guess. It builds your content plans from your real analytics, spots what's trending, and tells you what to post and when. Always waiting for your sign-off.

04

Calm software.

No notification bombardment. No gamified engagement. Koza is a workspace, not a feed. It respects your attention.

05

Honest by default.

Free until you outgrow it. No credit card games. No features held hostage behind tiers you don't need.

We don't want to be the next big platform. We want to be the tool you actually open first every morning. And the reason you can close everything else.

Vision

A world where running a creative business is one job, not six.

We envision a future where creative professionals spend their energy on strategy and craft, not on wrestling disconnected tools into cooperation. Where every client interaction, every deliverable, every invoice lives in one calm, intelligent workspace.

Mission

Replace the tool stack with one workspace that actually works.

Koza brings content planning, scheduling, analytics, and AI into one platform, and adds client management, invoicing, and contracts for agencies who need them. Built by creatives for creatives. We eliminate context-switching so you can focus on the work that matters.

Brand promise

Open one tab. Run your entire creative business. Go home on time.

This is the contract we make with every user. Koza should save time from day one, not after a 6-week onboarding. If it takes longer to do something in Koza than it did across your old tools, we've failed.

Who we serve

Content creators & managers

Social media managers, content strategists, and brand managers juggling 2–5 clients solo. Drowning in tool-switching. Needs one place to plan content, talk to clients, and track what's working, without hiring an assistant.

Too many tabsManual reportingClient chasing

Creative professionals

Photographers, videographers, and content creators wanting to run their business. Needs to manage bookings, deliverables, contracts, and invoicing without stitching together five different apps.

Scattered bookingsInvoice chaosNo client portal

Agency owners

Running a team of 2–20, scaling past 10 clients. Needs to onboard new clients fast, keep brand kits organized, automate invoicing, and give each client a clean portal.

Onboarding frictionTeam coordinationRevenue leakage

Small business owners

Want to be on social media but don't know where to start. A bakery, a florist, a studio. Needs something that guides them. Simpler than enterprise tools, more powerful than posting from their phone.

Don't know where to startNo timeNo budget for tools

Voice & tone

Confident, not arrogant

Do“One workspace. No compromises.”
Don't“The world's most advanced social platform.”

Warm, not casual

Do“Your bakery gets 3× more saves on Sundays.”
Don't“OMG your engagement is literally insane rn 🔥”

Direct, not blunt

Do“Stop duct-taping six apps together.”
Don't“Your current workflow is broken and inefficient.”

Specific, not vague

Do“Free up to 3 clients. No credit card.”
Don't“Unlock your potential with our flexible plans.”

Writing rules

Short sentences. Prefer 8–15 words. Break long sentences into two.
No jargon. Say “content calendar” not “editorial planning suite.”
Use real examples. “A bakery in Brooklyn” beats “businesses of all sizes.”
Contractions always. “We're” not “We are.” “Don't” not “Do not.”
First person plural. “We built” and “Our tool,” never “Koza's platform enables.”
No superlatives. Never “best,” “most powerful,” or “industry-leading.”

What makes us different

Convergence over integration

We don't connect to your tools. We replace them. No Zapier glue. No API keys. Everything is native.

AI that knows your brand

Oza creates full content plans from your real analytics, spots trending topics, and tells you what to post and when. Not guesses. Not generic templates. Data-driven plans built around your audience.

Client portals built in

Every client gets their own door into Koza to approve content, view calendars, and chat. No sharing logins or screenshots in email.

Agency-grade, solo-friendly

Scales from 1 client to 50 without changing tiers or learning a new interface. The same tool works whether you're freelance or running a team of 15.

Revenue features, not just content

Invoicing, contracts, and payment tracking live alongside your content calendar. Creative work isn't just delivering. It's a business.

Opinionated simplicity

We ship fewer features, better. No settings pages with 200 toggles. Sensible defaults that work for 90% of use cases out of the box.
