Automation you can hand your client data to.
Biko is small on purpose. You work directly with the principal who designs your automations, someone who has spent a career protecting sensitive information, not a sales team handing you off after the contract.

Founder & CEO
The founder
André Darnell
André has spent more than twenty years in network and cybersecurity engineering, and most recently led compliance for a federal consent-order program at a major technology company, the kind of work where a single mishandled record has real consequences. He started Biko to bring that same discipline to the small practices that can't hire a security team of their own.
The result is a simple promise: practical automation, built with senior judgment, at a price a small firm can afford, and honest guidance about when AI is the wrong answer.
Veteran-owned
Biko is a veteran-owned business. André is a United States Marine Corps veteran, and the values the Corps builds, discipline, accountability, mission-first, are how Biko works.
Held a Secret clearance
While serving in the Marine Corps, André held a U.S. Secret security clearance, granted only after a federal background investigation into trustworthiness with sensitive information.
// why it matters for you
The people you serve trust you with their private lives. You deserve the same from your vendor.
Your clients' matters, records, and finances are confidential by obligation. When you bring in automation, that data is exactly what's at stake. Biko was built by someone whose whole career has been keeping information like that safe, so confidentiality isn't a feature we bolt on, it's the instinct we start from.

No sales team, no handoff. Just a straight conversation.
