What we are

What Kokanee does, and what it deliberately doesn't.

+ What it is
  • A private retrieval system over your own documents and data.
  • Institutional memory that accumulates with every document, report, and decision your team has made.
  • An analyst that finds patterns no human has the time to spot.
  • A force multiplier for the people already doing the work.
What it is not
  • A data vendor. Kokanee doesn't sell market data.
  • A generic AI chatbot. The corpus is private and curated.
  • A replacement for your judgment. A teammate that works the problem with you, not for you.
Bring your network. Bring your data. Bring what your team has learned. Kokanee makes every signal count, for every decision you have to make.
A cited answer, every time.

If violence in Burkina Faso were to spill over into northern Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire, how might cocoa prices be impacted across a 30, 90, and 180 day timeline?

Pulled from 9 documents across your corpus, weighted for the Strategy persona.

Starting assumptions

The corpus establishes that Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana together supply roughly 60% of global cocoa. Prices have already moved from ~$2.40/kg in 2021–2022 to ~$7.80/kg in 2025, a tripling driven by production shortfalls rather than geopolitical fear premia. This matters because the market is not pricing in conflict risk today, it is pricing in structural supply loss. A violence spillover would interact with an already stressed baseline, not a slack one.

Côte d'Ivoire's conflict profile is currently low (ACLED: Index Level Low/Inactive, 262 events in 2025, rank 65/156). Ghana's is materially worse and deteriorating (Index Level Turbulent, rank 44/156, 615% increase in violence events since 2015, 538 events in the 12 months through November 2025). The northern corridor through which Burkina Faso–based jihadists would transit is the same corridor where cocoa farms and cooperatives operate in both countries.

30-day horizon: Fear premium, limited physical disruption

At 30 days, the most likely impact is a speculative price spike driven by trader positioning rather than confirmed supply loss. Cocoa futures markets respond to forward supply expectations, and a credible incursion into northern Ghana or the Ivorian border zone would be enough to move front-month contracts even before a single farm is affected.
