Will double headcount; lot of headroom for growing user base: Koo

Koo, a microblogging platform, is aiming to double its workforce in the coming one year as it scales up its customer base on the platform, according to co-founder Aprameya Radhakrishna.

He added, “When folks join Koo, they bring their followers as well, we don’t have too many Bollywood folks yet, we don’t have too many cricketers yet. There are lots of politicians, writers…who will find their unique reasons to be on Koo because we are enabling local languages.”

He further informed, “We want to hit 100 million downloads in the next year or so. It is plausible, a 20X growth is very much possible, it depends on what all events lead to it. There are a lot of people who are yet to join Koo.”

“We are aggressively hiring, especially for the engineering team because every idea, everything we want to do on product, boils down to engineering efforts. We want the best of engineers in India to work with us,” said Radhakrishna.
