KOMINO: A Productivity Platform for Nonprofit Organizations for Volunteer Management

Stéphan, founder and CEO of Comino, embodies a new generation of social entrepreneurs who place technology at the service of collective impact. With his start-up, he aims to transform the way nonprofit organizations (NPOs) operate, collaborate, and evaluate their results.

Comino stands out for its targeted approach: offering a complete productivity platform tailored to the specific needs of NPOs. The goal is clear — to facilitate volunteer management, improve internal team coordination, stimulate community mobilization, and concretely measure the positive effects of ongoing initiatives.

“Comino is a productivity platform for NPOs, designed to help with volunteer management, team management, community mobilization, and impact tracking,” explains Stéphan.

At the heart of this project lies the desire to make technology accessible to organizations often limited in resources. Too often, community organizations have to make do with fragmented or expensive tools, which slows down their efficiency. Comino aims to fill this gap by offering an intuitive, collaborative, and tailor-made solution for the social economy sector.

During the OBNL happening, where he took part in discussions among community stakeholders and social entrepreneurs, Stéphan shared a striking reflection on the role of human skills in organizational success.

According to him, the future of NPOs relies not only on adopting powerful digital tools but also on the ability of individuals to cultivate cross-functional skills such as leadership, communication, empathy, and strategic thinking.

“What really struck me is the importance of developing skills that allow each person to have a strong impact on their organization, their community, and society in general,” he emphasizes.

These words reflect a deeply human vision of innovation. For Stéphan, a committed and well-trained individual can become a driver of transformation, capable of inspiring their team and energizing an entire community network. Comino thus seeks to support not only the digital transformation of NPOs but also their human and organizational growth.

The Comino platform integrates several features adapted to concrete field needs:

Volunteer management: registration, tracking, and centralized communication.

Coordination tools: project planning, document sharing, and task tracking.

Community mobilization: engagement campaigns and member communication.

Impact measurement: statistics, performance indicators, and personalized reports.

This integrated approach enables NPOs to save time, reduce administrative errors, and improve the transparency of their activities — a crucial issue in a context where donors, partners, and citizens demand greater accountability.

Comino is not limited to being just a technological platform. The company is part of a broader dynamic of collaboration and social innovation, seeking to build bridges between NPOs, businesses, and public institutions. Stéphan hopes to create a network where the sharing of experiences, knowledge, and tools becomes a collective lever for transformation.

With a long-term vision, the start-up plans to expand its presence to several regions of Quebec and eventually on an international scale, to help more organizations maximize their social impact.

“We want Comino to be more than just a tool — a trusted partner for organizations working every day to improve the lives of their communities,” concludes Stéphan.

Comino thus positions itself as a key player in modernizing the community sector, combining technology, humanity, and lasting social impact.
