Katteke is a Dutch sole proprietorship founded and led by Rei, Founder & CEO. Rei is the public author, product owner, and final decision-maker for the material published here.
The company uses a lightweight functional structure. The roles describe responsibilities that must be covered; they do not imply separate employees, departments, a board, or a publicly traded company. One person may hold several roles, and currently Rei holds final accountability across them.
Operating promise
Katteke keeps important work understandable after a project, contributor, or tool changes. Durable product direction belongs in product documentation. Decisions with lasting consequences receive a decision record. Verified outcomes belong in reports. Temporary context does not masquerade as company truth.
The aim is accountability without bureaucracy: enough structure to preserve reasoning, assign ownership, and make work repeatable, but no process whose cost exceeds its value.
The governance model defines the five current accountability roles. Learning from Nintendo’s public practices records which publicly documented company practices Katteke adapts and where the comparison must stop.
