What Coqpit does

Coqpit (legal entity SAS COQPIT) is a privately held, full-service digital communication and web marketing agency founded in 2016 in Clermont-Ferrand, France, by Nicolas Augeard (Directeur Général) and Clément Banet. The agency serves French small and mid-sized businesses (TPE, PME) and selected larger enterprises, primarily anchored in the Auvergne region (Puy-de-Dôme, Allier, Cantal, Haute-Loire) while delivering projects nationally. Across 400+ client engagements since inception, Coqpit has built a portfolio organized around three core offerings — Site Vitrine (showcase websites), Site E-commerce (online stores, including multi-vendor marketplace builds), and Application Métiers (custom business applications such as CRM, booking, and scheduling tools) — supported by a digital strategy practice covering SEO, Google Ads, social media, web analytics, email/newsletter, and growth marketing, plus Qualiopi-certified digital training and an RGAA/EAA accessibility compliance service.

The technical foundation is mainstream and execution-oriented rather than proprietary: Coqpit builds on WordPress, PrestaShop, and WooCommerce CMSs, with Symfony and Laravel PHP frameworks for custom back-ends, Vue.js and React for front-end, MySQL databases, and cloud hosting (ScaleWay) with SSL and CDN. The agency differentiates through full in-house delivery (a team of ~20 specialists spanning designers, developers, project managers, and SEO consultants), third-party validations (Google Partner, Qualiopi, Net Zero certification via Reforest'Action partnership), and a regional referral network spanning CPME, Réseau Entreprendre Auvergne, CCI, APM, and BNI.

The business model is project-based professional services with publicly disclosed pricing tiers ranging from €3,500 (entry-level 5–10 page showcase sites) to €50,000+ (premium e-commerce with 500+ SKUs) and bespoke business applications starting at €20,000, supplemented by recurring hosting/maintenance, SEO retainers, and Qualiopi-funded training. The agency is owner-operated with no external funding, €244,000 in share capital, and a single headquarters of ~300 m² at Parc Technologique de La Pardieu. Customer concentration is distributed across a long tail of SMB clients, with only a handful of larger enterprise logos (Welcom, Nutreov, Aurep).
