A Lagos cross-border B2B payments platform that needed to graduate from "Y Combinator pitch deck" to "credible vendor for international finance teams" — fast. We delivered the brand, four-language site, and AI-citation strategy overnight.
Kọ́bọ̀ had cleared Y Combinator. Investors had said yes. The product worked. The problem: a single-page Notion document was the "website," and the brand identity was a placeholder Slack avatar. Within 24 hours, partner banks across three continents would start typing the company name into Google.
Cross-border B2B payments is a trust business. A finance director in Paris or São Paulo who couldn't find a serious-looking Kọ́bọ̀ presence on Google would not be making the introduction call.
We collapsed what would normally be a four-week project into one synchronized sprint. The team worked across three timezones to ship simultaneously: brand identity, English / French / Portuguese / Spanish copy, full website, and the AI-search visibility layer.
By the end of the first week, organic traffic from finance-team searches had lifted 34%. Three of the YC partner banks reported that their treasury teams had independently surfaced Kọ́bọ̀ in supplier-vetting research before the introduction call happened.
Kọ́bọ̀ closed two enterprise pilots in the following month — both initiated by the buyer, not the founder. The website was no longer the bottleneck.
Brand, four-language site, and AI visibility — all live within 19 hours of the YC demo.
Logotype, color, type scale, and tone-of-voice — calibrated for fintech credibility without losing Lagos warmth.
Native EN / FR / PT / ES versions across landing, product, compliance, and onboarding flows.
Structured data and topical content engineered for AI agents that finance teams use to vet payment providers.
Single clear CTA, three proof points, and a frictionless self-serve trial flow that surfaces enterprise interest directly.
"We went from 'we'll send you the deck' to 'check our site' in one night. That changed every conversation we had after."
