About Rookoo
Rookoo is a Ghent-based startup on a mission to revolutionize the events industry with our AI-powered digital employee.
Our product is a digital platform that helps event venues 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 the sound a pigeon makes. For centuries, pigeons kept conversations alive across distances. Now we do it digitally, turning your venue's scattered conversations into actual bookings, 24/7

We check availability, provide your customers with accurate information, suggest alternatives when availability is limited, and keep track of your calendar so you're always on top of things!
