About the team

Making AI accessible for Ukrainian business

MTDK ai is a team of engineers and consultants who deploy AI assistants for salons, clinics, shops, and service centers. No jargon, no empty promises, with concrete results.

Founder

Taras Kovalsky

CEO and technical lead at MTDK ai

Taras is an engineer with 8 years in automation systems development. Before MTDK ai he worked on enterprise solutions for logistics and fintech, where he learned to ingest data from a dozen sources without losing any.

Founded MTDK ai in 2024 after seeing a simple gap: large companies have CRM and AI, small business has Excel and Telegram. Yet their customers are the same — and so are service expectations. The mission — close that gap.

Leads the technical direction, talks to every client at project kickoff, personally writes code for critical integrations. Believes good automation is when the customer doesn't notice it, and the owner stops finding it in nighttime messages.

Our mission

Make AI a working tool, not a toy

Ukrainian small business deserves the same technology as large corporations. We make it accessible.

Automation without barriers

No need to learn new software. The assistant works where the business already works — Telegram, Instagram, WhatsApp.

Transparent pricing

No hidden fees, no 'enter support tier'. Fixed monthly fee, fixed setup, clear scope.

Fast launch

7 days from first call to a working assistant. Not months of rollout — days. Because small business has no time to wait.

Ukrainian-first support

Team in Ukraine, we respond in Ukrainian, we understand the context of Ukrainian business — from sole proprietor to LLC.

Our values

How we work with every client

These four principles aren't marketing. They're how we make decisions every day.

Honesty over the sale

If you don't need AI — we'll say so. If we can't close your case — we'll recommend colleagues. Long-term partnership matters more than a short contract.

Results, not slides

We don't show pretty dashboards. We show: how many leads, conversion path, time saved. Numbers — weekly in Telegram report.

Your data is yours

Your customer base is your business asset. We're processor, not owner. Export anytime.

Small iterations

We don't ship a 'big system' over six months. We build MVP in a week, test with real customers, add only what's needed. Saves your time and money.

Common questions

What people ask about the team

Transparent answers to questions from prospective clients and partners.

Core — 5 people: Taras (CEO/tech lead), 2 integration engineers, 1 AI consultant, 1 customer success manager. For larger projects we bring in project specialists (design, copy, languages).
No. Categorically. Since February 24, 2022 — zero clients from russia. This principle is not up for discussion.
Yes. For volunteer organizations, AFU funds, charity projects — free setup and 50% off monthly. Reach out, we'll figure it out.
On a free consultation we discuss your case. If we see AI will really help — we start. If not (e.g. you have 2 customers a month — you don't need AI) — we'll be honest and recommend an alternative.
We have cases in beauty salons, dental clinics, auto service, cafes, e-commerce, online schools, fitness clubs, medical centers. If your niche is different, the first 1-2 projects go as 'discovery' — we research deeper, charge less than full.
Anthropic (Claude AI), n8n.io, Hetzner Cloud, Coolify (deployment). Telegram, Instagram, WhatsApp Business — official APIs. PostgreSQL, Drizzle, Next.js. All open-source or enterprise with clear SLA.
