Whether you have a defined problem and a budget, an idea you’re still shaping, or just want a sanity check on an AI strategy you’ve been given, we’d like to hear it.

If you already have a brief - an RFP, an SoR, a one-pager from your internal team - attach it. We read everything we get and reply within two working days.

Longer questions, RFP responses, anything you’d rather put in writing: same address.

What happens next

Three steps. Nothing gets pitched at you.

For larger or regulated procurements - G-Cloud, formal RFP processes, internal procurement - we follow your process. Send us your timetable.

01 A 30-minute call with someone senior Tell us about the problem, what’s been tried, and what success looks like. We’ll ask a few good questions, and you’ll be talking to a senior consultant who has done the work. 30 min
02 A straight answer on fit Our first read, and whether what you’re describing fits what we do. If it doesn’t, we’ll often know who does.
03 A prototype sprint proposal, if there’s one to make The shape of the engagement we’d propose, an indicative budget and timing. Not a polished proposal, but a working document we can iterate on together. How a delivery runs →

Security reviewers

Reviewing us? Go straight to the evidence.

If you’re running a security review or a procurement assessment, you don’t need a discovery call. Ask us directly for the isolation report and the audit-trail design, and we’ll send them to your reviewer. No pitch attached.

Or start with the assurance notes - the long-form answers to the questions every regulated buyer asks, written to be useful to a reviewer reading alone.

Before the first call

A few questions we get a lot.

More questions, asked often →
How quickly can you start? +

Typically within two to four weeks for a Design & Build Sprint, depending on the shape of the problem and how clean the discovery is. Faster for advisory engagements.

Do you work outside the UK? +

Yes. We deliver remote-first across the UK, Europe, and beyond, with on-site presence for discovery and key milestones.

Do you sub-contract? +

We deliver with a core team of Katemba consultants. For specific skills - specialist regulatory, specific platform integrations, design systems - we work with a small network of trusted associates, disclosed to you upfront. We never resell undisclosed offshore capacity.

What’s the smallest engagement you’ll take? +

A two-week Prototype Sprint is the smallest paid engagement - real code on your infrastructure, engineered to keep. Below that, a 30-minute call is usually the right answer rather than a paid engagement.
