Transparency
Clear conversations, shared milestones, honest pricing, all the way to publicly listed prices at Studio Cadence.
The story of the Les Communi'Caen group An agency that became a group.
It all starts from one simple belief: clear, bold, honest communication can propel any business. Three years later, that belief carries three brands.
August 2023
The adventure begins: the agency opens its doors
Loïck Chabaud and Guillaume Le Diolen found Les Communi'Caen at 8 rue des Compagnons in Caen. A communication agency built on one rule, set in stone from day one: always play with the cards on the table. Branding, websites, photography, training. The team learns fast and lays the foundations of what will become a group.
- 2 founders
- Incorporated in Caen
- 8 rue des Compagnons
2023 – 2024
The first clients, from local craftsmen to national brands
Normandy word-of-mouth does its work: neighbourhood businesses, craftsmen, then names that matter like MMA, AXA, Ouest-France, Suzuki or the University of Caen. Over the months, hundreds of companies come to trust the team. The method never changes from one client to the next: listening, transparency, and measurable results.
- 500+ companies supported
- MMA · AXA · Ouest-France
- University of Caen · IUT

The products take flight: Impulsio is born
The NFC connected products designed in Caen find their audience, enough to deserve their own house. Impulsio launches with 6 product lines (connected business cards, Uniqual review boxes, signs, event displays, goodies) and a complete platform: self-service management, built-in CRM, analytics and scan geolocation.
- 6 NFC product lines
- CRM & analytics platform

Impulsio exhibits at VivaTech, Paris
Europe's largest tech event opens its doors to the Normandy startup: four days among 14,000 startups, in front of 160,000 visitors, with one detail the team is proud of: the founders were the youngest entrepreneurs at the show. National brands like Carrefour, Peugeot and Accor join the equipped companies.

Websites get their independence: Codexe
The team has been building websites since the agency's very first day. In June 2026, this historic craft is spun off and becomes a brand of its own: Codexe, the group's web studio. Its promise fits in one sentence: your showcase website created or rebuilt, online in two weeks at most, then managed for you over time. And for the curious, a game is hidden on its website.
- Showcase sites in 2 weeks
- Creation, redesign, custom tools
- A craft born in 2023

Video gets its own house: Studio Cadence
Studio Cadence turns video production into a monthly subscription: a studio in Caen, three rhythms, one-shot packages and, rare in this industry, every price listed publicly. Within weeks, the studio earns its first stars: 5/5 on Google.
Why Cadence?
What it changes, by a client
- 3 plans with public pricing
- 1 studio in Caen
- 5/5 on Google
Today
Les Communi'Caen becomes the group
The agency refocuses on what it has built. Les Communi'Caen now oversees its three brands: Studio Cadence for video, Impulsio for NFC technology, Codexe for websites. One address, one team, one standard, and already two houses rated 5/5 on Google. The next chapter is being written in Caen.
- 3 brands
- 1 address in Caen
- 5/5 on Google
And tomorrow?
Who knows what the next chapter is made of?
A fourth house? A new territory? An idea that does not exist yet? The group has made a habit of turning its intuitions into brands. One thing is certain: it will be built in Caen, cards on the table, and you will read about it here first.
- To be continued…
Three values, since day one.
Excellence
Every detail counts, from strategy to pixel. Tailor-made solutions, never off-the-shelf.
Innovation
Anticipate rather than follow: NFC with Impulsio, video subscriptions with Studio Cadence, websites in two weeks with Codexe.
Two partners, one address.
