01 — The AI assistant
A search entry point that justifies its work.
Describe your target profile in a single sentence. The assistant builds a search plan with a rationale for each search term, verifies hits against the knowledge graph and openly shows what it filtered out — and why.
"Why this search term?"
Every step in the plan carries its rationale — which term, which source, which filter. Visible before the search runs.
Knowledge graph verification
Companies Kodo has already analyzed in depth are marked as verified. Every analysis makes the graph smarter — and your next search faster.
Filtered out — with rationale
Distributors, portals, wrong size: Kodo shows what was dropped and why. You see the quality of the selection, not just the final result.
Target-profile-driven
Size, region, manufacturing depth, anti-personas: your saved target profile steers every search — anything unsuitable never reaches your list.
Kodo Assistant
readyYour request
"Find automotive suppliers with aluminum die casting and IATF 16949 in Bavaria, 100–500 employees."
Search plan — every step justified
Search term "aluminum die casting series production"
Why: targets foundries with their own production — not distributors or casting marketplaces.
Knowledge graph match: 142 companies already analyzed
Known profiles are verified instantly — without a new crawl.
Matched against your target profile
Size, region, anti-personas — anything unsuitable is dropped before the result.

Kodo Leads02 — Deep Crawling & PDF Mining
Kodo reads what is in no database holds.
Machinery is in PDF brochures, certificates on the quality page, processes somewhere in the body text. Kodo crawls the entire website including PDFs — live at the time of the search, not from a list from last year.
Search by machine type (e.g. 5-axis CNC, injection moulding)
PDF machine lists are extracted and stored as structured capabilities on the company profile — searchable like a database.
Certificate scan (ISO 9001, IATF, AS9100)
Certificates are found and validated on the website and in PDF documents — not just copied from directories.
Understand processes & applications
Deep drawing, wire EDM, cleanroom assembly: Kodo detects manufacturing processes in body text and turns them into hard search criteria.
03 — Decision Maker Mining
Decision-makers with names, position and evidence.
Kodo pulls management and key contacts straight from the legal notice and commercial register — the two sources that are current and reliable in DACH. Instead of "info@" you know exactly whom to ask for.
Real imprint mining for decision-makers
The legal notice is the only page every German company is required to keep current. Kodo reads names and roles directly from there.
Commercial register match
Managing directors, authorized signatories and key financials are checked against the commercial register and added to the profile.
Verified, not purchased
No purchased contact lists: every name carries its source link and can be verified in a single click.

Why a list database can't do this
Source per lead. Every signal links to its evidence — press release, register entry, job posting. Verifiable, not just claimed.
Live from the company website. Not from last year's lists — straight from what the company publishes itself today.
knowledge graph. Every analysis feeds into a growing DACH company graph — every next search becomes faster and more precise.
