Animikii is a digital agency that drives social innovation through Indigenous technology.
We believe that technology is a societal equalizer.
We see technology as an economic driver towards Indigenous self-sufficiency. We’re a team of Indigenous and non-Indigenous innovators committed to Reconciliation and we want to work with you to drive equitable outcomes for Indigenous Peoples.
Let’s use our technology and your expertise to do amazing things together.
It’s about your “why.”
We care deeply about who we’re working with and the values that drive them. We’re a team of skilled innovators across many disciplines who look at the "who" before the "work."
We choose our projects based on the impact they’ll have. No matter the discipline or kind of organization, if you’re doing exciting work for Indigenous Peoples, let's chat.
When you work with Animikii, your goals become our goals.
Supporting Indigenous innovators since 2003.
"Partnering with an Indigenous digital agency was key to the success of the Indian Horse Film. Animikii’s entire team understood our vision and worked in collaboration with us to foster a meaningful conversation around Reconciliation through the film’s digital media."
"It was great getting to know you and thank you again for your patience and perseverance in creating the new database system for the First Citizens Fund. I am very impressed with your work and will recommend you to anyone."
Our unique approach.
It's important for us to start every project from a place of meaning and respect. For this reason, we strive to maintain a values-based, transparent and collaborative environment across all disciplines.
Values-Based
Our values form the foundation of our business philosophy. We follow the 7 Sacred Teachings of Anishinaabe tradition in all aspects of our decision-making processes. We think of our projects holistically and focus on building long-term relationships with our clients, partners, employees and networks.
Transparency
Our straightforward approach to projects is often a breath of fresh air for many of our clients. We never bill hourly keeping your costs consistent and predictable. You'll never get a surprise invoice from Animikii for hours you didn't approve. While we don’t respond to Request for Proposals, we do work with organizations of all sizes and disciplines and we guarantee our work. We’re open-book with our team and when we say we’re a social enterprise, you can read what that means to us in our annual social impact report.
Collaboration
The Animikii team is remote-first and distributed. This means we work with teammates, contractors, and clients throughout Turtle Island. We see our clients as partners on a shared journey, not just a transactional relationship. As a company, Animikii promotes collaboration, not competition. If you’re an Indigenous technologist or innovator in a similar space we want to find a way to work with you, not compete against you.
