About
We exist because social media is broken for small business.
Kivyu was started in 2024 by a small team who were tired of watching brilliant business owners spend their evenings writing captions instead of running their business. We thought AI could do better — not in five years, but now. So we built it.
What we believe
Boring reliability
We post. Every day. For years. Our 98% retention rate is not marketing — it is the boring truth.
Human voice, machine speed
AI is fast. Your customers are human. We obsess over the seam between the two.
Price like a product, not an agency
£99/month. No upsells, no surprises, no quarterly review meetings. We make money when you stay.
Built in the UK, for UK businesses
GDPR-first, GBP pricing, UK support hours. Your data stays in EU-WEST-2.
