About Ziggu

If communication can kill a marriage, it sure as hell can kill your project.

Let's be honest. The world of complex projects is a masterclass in irony. Seriously: You get minute-by-minute tracking on a €20 pepperoni pizza. But for bigger, impactful and more stressful projects, we all too often experience “the communication black hole”. A chaotic mess of scattered emails, conflicting chat threads, and the gnawing anxiety that something important just got buried.

We didn’t just think that was inefficient. We thought it was madness.

Our origin story? It was forged in the toughest environment we knew.

Before Ziggu was a platform, it was a daily headache.

Our founders weren't tech bros looking for a market to disrupt. They were on the front lines of one of the most demanding project environments there are: real estate. They lived the painful reality of trying to deliver a premium experience for a life-altering investment while battling tools that actively worked against them

As our CEO, Yannick Bontinckx, puts it:
“We started Ziggu because I saw it firsthand in our sector: we were doing everything we could to deliver great service. But the tools we had? They just weren’t built for it. And like in any relationship, clear communication is everything. It can make or break a marriage, a project, anything really.”

Then we had a realization. The chaos wasn't a real estate problem. It was a project problem. We saw architects losing brilliant designs in translation. Creative agencies battling endless, soul-crushing revision cycles with clients. Machine builders struggling to align with contractors on-site. The pattern was the same everywhere: when projects get complex, communication gets messy. And if a lack of communication can break a marriage, it sure as hell can break the customer experience.

Our Official Enemy:
The Cult of Complication

Here's the uncomfortable truth: More tools don't mean more clarity. They usually just create more noise.

In a world obsessed with "AI," "automation," and "optimization," the actual client relationship was being treated like a bug, not a feature. We saw this as the real villain. Communication wasn’t broken; it was being buried alive by digital clutter.

So we picked a side.

Our mission isn't just to build better software. It's to protect human connection in an era of digital noise and impersonal automation.

Our Vision: A Human Platform in an Inhuman Era

We believe technology should strengthen people, not replace them.

Ziggu is our answer. It’s not another tool to add to your stack. It’s the platform that replaces the stack. It’s one central hub designed to turn project chaos into project clarity.

Our ultimate goal is a world with fewer project "nightmares". A world where every business can proudly say:

“We communicate with our customers exactly how we want to be treated ourselves.”

So, who is Ziggu for?

It's for any team that delivers custom, multi-stakeholder projects and cares as much about the client experience as the final outcome. It’s for you, if you’re one of these:

1
Property Developers & Home Builders
trying to keep buyers in the loop without the "any updates?" emails.
2
Architects & Design Firms
trying to manage feedback, files, and decisions without losing the thread.
3
General & Specialized Contractors
trying not to drown in calls and scattered WhatsApps.
4
Creative Agencies & Website Builders
trying to juggle client feedback without version chaos.
5
Makers & Manufacturers
trying to focus on custom builds, not answering 100s of questions.
6
Planners & Coordinators
trying to hit deadlines without chasing everyone down.

The Ziggu Way (How We Roll)

This philosophy dictates how we operate. It's in our code and our conversations.
