Terms.
The ground rules for using matsiems.com and engaging with Mat Siems for work.
Last updated: May 2026
The site
matsiems.com is the public marketing site for Mat Siems. Content is opinion + portfolio, shared as-is, no warranty. Code samples are illustrative — read, understand, and adapt before running in production.
Engagement model
- POM (Pomodoro) rate is published on /pricing. The first POM is free.
- Work is invoiced in POM blocks. Each POM = 25 minutes of focused execution.
- All deliverables (code, docs, diagrams) ship to your repo / drive. You own the output.
- Either side can stop at any POM boundary — no minimum block, no exit fee.
What you get
- The work agreed for that block, shipped to a real environment.
- An audit trail in git + a summary of what changed and why.
- Access to any tooling or skills required to keep building after I'm off the clock.
What I don't do
- Fixed-bid full-build contracts — POMs only.
- Subcontract to teams you haven't met. If a fellow operator joins, you meet them first.
- Sign NDAs that prevent sharing high-level patterns publicly (specific client data is always private).
Liability
Mat Siems is a UK sole trader. Liability is capped at the fees paid for the most recent billing cycle. The site and any free artefact (skills, diagrams, code snippets) are provided “as is”.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales.
