domo

Domo is a term used for several distinct subjects, with two of the most widely recognized uses being Domo-kun, a fictional brown monster that serves as the mascot of Japan’s public broadcaster NHK, and Domo, Inc., a cloud-based business intelligence platform.

Domo-kun is depicted as a shaggy brown creature with a large, round mouth that is usually open. Created as NHK’s mascot, Domo-kun has appeared in commercials, merchandise, and online media, and has gained a global following through fan art and appearances in various media. The character is known for its simple, expressive design and has become a recognizable symbol in Japanese pop culture.

Domo, Inc. offers a data analytics platform that connects to numerous data sources, enables users to build dashboards, perform analytics, and share insights. The platform emphasizes data visualization, collaboration, and mobile access, providing enterprises with centralized visibility into business metrics. It is designed to integrate data from multiple systems, automate reporting, and support data-driven decision making across teams.

In addition to these uses, domo can appear as part of product names or branding in other contexts. Because the same term can refer to different concepts, context—such as industry, language, or accompanying terms—is typically required to determine the intended meaning.
