About Rookoo.

Rookoo is a Ghent-based startup on a mission to revolutionize the events, hospitality and (MICE-) tourism industry with our AI-powered digital employee.

Our product ExperienceAI is a digital co-worker that helps event venues, agencies, tourism boards, hotels and more turn inbound customer requests into structured, actionable plans. We drastically reduce the back-and-forth and admin work, so our clients can focus on creating amazing experiences instead of paperwork.

It's an exciting, people-centered and creative industry — our clients want to craft memorable events without getting bogged down, and Rookoo helps make that possible.

We're an experienced, good vibed and ambitious team working out of the Wintercircus startup campus in Ghent (a historic circus-turned-tech hub)

Rookoo is named after the sound a pigeon makes. Pigeons are creatures that experiment, work together and have a proven track record of managing tasks (See Project Pigeon ). For centuries, they are the ones keeping conversations alive.
