Cocoom

What Cocoom does

Cocoom, operated by YIDAKI SAS, is a French SaaS company headquartered in Grenoble that sells an internal communications platform positioned as a collaborative "internal media" rather than a messaging tool. The web-based product is structured around editorial primitives — a configurable front page ("La Une"), thematic streams, block-based content templates, engagement features (comments, applause, polls, quizzes), a people directory, statistics dashboards, and PDF export — with native first-party integrations into Microsoft Teams, Slack, and Microsoft Outlook that deliver content into the tools employees already use and support SSO via those providers' identity systems. A multi-community architecture enables large organizations to deploy interconnected Cocoom instances by subsidiary, department, or service line.

The company monetizes through tiered per-user monthly subscriptions: Starter at €6/user/month with a 14-day no-credit-card free trial, Standard at €4/user/month with a 50-user minimum and a dedicated Customer Success Manager, and Enterprise at €3.5/user/month with a 100-user minimum and multi-community support. Variable add-ons include additional storage (€4/month per 10GB), additional contributors (€2/user/month), and additional readers (€1/user/month). Separate professional services cover onboarding, best-practice deployment, and access to a trained external facilitator network. The go-to-market is hybrid: self-serve PLG for Starter accounts and a consultative sales motion for Standard and Enterprise, supported by demo booking, a free trial, and direct sales outreach.

The business is small and independent. YIDAKI SAS has 1-10 employees, €1,000 of stated share capital, and a single disclosed funding round of approximately $585,370 from HUB612 in July 2018. Named enterprise customers include Dimo Software, efalia, Generali, Leyton, Tessi, and Manufactors, spanning insurance, BPO, consulting, manufacturing, and software. The company markets itself as a sovereign French solution — designed, developed, and hosted in France, GDPR-compliant, and a member of French Tech Alpes — to differentiate from US-headquartered intranet and employee experience platforms in EU procurement.

Broad incumbents

• Microsoft Viva: Microsoft's employee experience platform bundled into Microsoft 365, including Viva Connections, Engage, and Topics. Represents the dominant incumbent against which Cocoom's editorial and Teams-integration value prop competes.
• Jive Software (Wipro): Legacy enterprise intranet and employee engagement platform now part of Wipro. Comparable to Cocoom as an established enterprise internal communications/content platform, though with a much older on-prem-leaning footprint.

Direct peers

• Firstup: Employee communications platform delivering personalized news and content through email, mobile, and collaboration tools. Comparable to Cocoom in targeting enterprise internal comms teams and integration-led distribution.
• Staffbase: Employee communications app focused on large enterprises with native integrations to Microsoft Teams and SharePoint. Closely comparable to Cocoom in customer profile (100+ employee organizations) and content-led approach.
• LumApps: French-based employee experience and internal communications platform with deep Microsoft 365/Teams integration. Directly comparable to Cocoom in European enterprise segment, sovereign hosting story, and editorial/news-centric approach.
• Sociabble: French employee communications and advocacy platform with Teams/Slack integrations. Directly comparable as a French-headquartered peer targeting enterprise internal comms with editorial content workflows.
• Haiilo: Employee experience and intranet platform serving mid-market and enterprise customers in Europe. Comparable to Cocoom in content-driven internal communications and Microsoft 365 ecosystem focus.
• Simpplr: AI-powered employee experience platform with intranet, internal communications, and content management. Comparable to Cocoom as a packaged SaaS targeting large organizations needing persistent editorial content and structured comms.

Regional players

• Speakap: Employee communications app focused on frontline workers, primarily in Europe. Comparable to Cocoom in mobile/internal-comms SaaS category but with a more deskless-worker specialization and stronger Dutch/EU presence.

Others

• Workplace from Meta: Meta's enterprise collaboration and communications platform with news feed, groups, and integrations. Comparable as a broad incumbent in workplace communications where Cocoom's editorial positioning must differentiate.
