01 / origin

We started in 2013
with Leadaki.

We came from looking at thousands of marketing pipelines and understanding one thing: the real bottleneck wasn't attracting.

It was sustaining the conversation.

02 / thesis

Then came
Cliengo.

Same obsession, the other side of the counter. Chat on websites, WhatsApp, Instagram — where commerce in LATAM actually happens.

You don't win the funnel by attracting.
You win it by replying.
03 / shift

We called it
LDK.

Office nickname, chat shortcut. Short version of Leadaki, our first name. Worked fine for talking among ourselves.

The industry shifted three times. Over time, "LDK" stopped saying anything — it no longer represented who we were becoming.

04 / name

idk.

three letters drifting around the internet.

short for "I don't know"

05 / permission

It's not a declaration
of ignorance.
It's permission.

We're living through a moment where artificial intelligences have an answer for everything. Where anyone who says something extreme with conviction gets thousands of likes, regardless of how much they actually know.

We want to give ourselves permission — sometimes — to say I don't know.

06 / shoshin
初心 · shoshin

Beginner's
mind.

Openness, curiosity, absence of preconceptions — regardless of prior experience. The attitude that lets us learn faster and better, precisely because we don't assume we already know.

  • openness
  • curiosity
  • no preconceptions
07 / method

But "I don't know"
has a method:
measure.

Instead of defending an intuition, we go to the data. Instead of impressions and reach, we show what generated conversations, what generated sales, and what didn't.

Rigorous measurement separates a productive "I don't know"
from one more opinion.

impressions
→ conversations
reach
→ sales
opinion
→ evidence
08 / manifesto

When…

  • 01
    When AI generates a thousand answers per second,
    what's scarce isn't the answer. It's the right question.
  • 02
    When AI can answer for us,
    we choose with judgment when it should — and when it shouldn't.
  • 03
    When everyone speaks with absolute certainty,
    what's valuable is daring to doubt out loud.
  • 04
    When frameworks come pre-packaged,
    the craft is knowing when not to apply them.
  • 05
    When data contradicts our intuition,
    data wins.
  • 06
    When a client writes in,
    it's not a ticket. It's someone deciding whether to trust.
  • 07
    When we're asked something we don't know,
    we say so. And we go figure it out together.
  • 08
    When everyone promises certainty,
    we promise rigor.
09 / closing

That's idk.

It's not not-knowing. It's the discipline of starting each time without assuming we already know.
