Koi Studio Miami

What Koi Studio Miami does

Koi Studio Miami is a privately held, Miami/Doral-based full-service creative agency that delivers branding, design, photography, social media and digital marketing, audio-visual advertising, photorealistic 3D rendering, immersive 360-degree virtual tours, printing and production, AI-enabled content and chatbot services, and certified multilingual interpretation. Its underlying technical stack is built on industry-standard design, 3D rendering, virtual tour capture and hosting, generative AI APIs for content production, and audio-visual production tools, assembled into a service platform rather than a packaged product. The agency serves a portfolio of large enterprise clients concentrated in beverage/alcohol (Anheuser-Busch across at least five regions, Pernod Ricard across multiple divisions, Red Bull, Michelob Ultra), luxury goods (Panerai, Richemont), tobacco and travel retail (JTI, Plasencia), travel/hospitality (Norwegian Cruise Line), and sports properties (Williams Racing, Denver Broncos, St. Louis Cardinals, Real Salt Lake).

The business operates on professional services revenue mechanics: a mix of ongoing retainers and project-based engagements, sourced via direct sales and industry relationships rather than paid demand generation. It monetizes geographic reach through a network of strategic on-the-ground partners across the Americas (USA, Canada, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Peru, Colombia, Argentina, and Brazil) that enable local execution under a single agency relationship. Distribution relies primarily on organic digital presence (Instagram, website portfolio, email newsletter via MailerLite) and client referrals rather than formal sales channels. Leadership is founder-led: Andres Mendez serves as President & CEO with 25+ years of creative production experience, and Katherine Malaga serves as COO with 16+ years across technology and advertising. The firm appears bootstrapped with no disclosed institutional investment, and detailed financials, headcount, and pricing are not publicly disclosed.
