A few useful answers
Kerning / IntelligenceGood questions.
A clearer starting point.
What we build, how a partnership begins and the decisions we make together. A little context before the first conversation.
Ask us something elseGetting started
What does Kerning AI build?
Enterprise applications, enterprise websites and applied AI. That can mean an operational platform, a corporate or product website, a partner portal, a knowledge assistant or a workflow connecting existing systems. We begin with the business problem and work out the appropriate scope together.
Do you design and build enterprise websites?
Yes. We bring brand, content and engineering together for corporate, product and multi-brand websites. Scope can include a CMS, editorial workflows, responsive design, accessibility, technical SEO, analytics and connections to your CRM or business systems. We agree launch requirements and ongoing support around the needs of your team.
Do we need a finished brief?
No. A useful first conversation can begin with a recurring problem, a workflow that depends on spreadsheets, or a new product idea. Bring the context you have: who is affected, what happens today and what you would like to improve. Discovery can turn that into a defined first project.
Do you work with international companies?
Yes. We work with enterprises and mid-market businesses internationally. Time zones, communication, stakeholder access and deployment requirements form part of the working agreement, so delivery fits the organisation as well as the technology.
Can you work alongside our internal team?
Yes. A partnership can complement an existing product, engineering or operations team. We agree responsibilities, decision owners and the working rhythm at the start, whether the need is a focused project or a longer programme of work.
Delivery & partnership
How do you scope a first engagement?
We identify a useful outcome, the people involved, the systems it touches and the constraints that matter. From there we agree a first delivery boundary, acceptance criteria and the dependencies on both sides. Discovery is especially useful when the workflow or integration requirements are still uncertain.
How much does a project cost?
Cost depends on scope, integrations, data, operational complexity and the level of ongoing support. We discuss these before proposing an engagement. A short description of the problem and the intended users is enough to start a conversation about fit and the next step.
Can you improve our existing software?
Yes. The starting point can be an existing application or a set of disconnected tools. We first look at what is working, what is difficult to maintain and where change will help. The scope may be an integration, a new interface, a focused feature or a more substantial rebuild.
What happens after launch?
Support and continued development are agreed as part of the engagement. The plan can include issue handling, operational review, knowledge transfer and a prioritised roadmap. Response times, coverage and ownership are defined in the proposal rather than assumed.
AI, data & ownership
Does every project need AI?
No. Sometimes a clearer workflow, a better interface or a dependable integration solves the problem. We use AI where it has a defined role and can be evaluated against the task. Enterprise applications and applied intelligence are complementary capabilities, and either can be the starting point.
How do you approach an AI pilot?
Start with a bounded task and representative examples. Define what a useful result looks like, how mistakes will be reviewed and which actions need approval. The pilot should help decide whether the capability is suitable for a wider rollout, with its limitations made visible.
Can you work with our data and deployment requirements?
Those requirements shape the proposed architecture. We discuss data access, retention, location, identity, model providers and procurement constraints during discovery. Specific hosting arrangements, certifications and contractual controls need to be assessed and agreed for the engagement.
Who owns the code and intellectual property?
Ownership, licensing and access are set out in the agreement before delivery begins. We distinguish bespoke project work from existing tools, third-party services and open-source dependencies so that the handover and long-term responsibilities are clear.
Every engagement has its own scope. Commercial terms, delivery responsibilities and service commitments are confirmed in your proposal and agreement.
