Kysa Talent × Montaj Digital

A recruitment desk that runs itself. You just take the calls.

The Market's There. The Hours Aren't.

Kysa places AI and ML engineers into HealthTech and MedTech companies around the world. It's a narrow, well-paid niche, and it needs daily work that nobody currently has time for.

Raised in the last six to nine months: the companies most likely to hire
01

The niche is right

Freshly funded HealthTech and MedTech companies need AI and ML engineers, and there aren't many recruiters who know both sides of that market.

02

The time isn't there

Intrepid takes most of your week. A desk needs prospecting, follow-ups and replies every day, and none of that happens on its own.

03

Speed wins the conversation

The first recruiter to reach a newly funded company, and the first to answer an interested engineer, usually gets the work.

04

January is the window

Engineers start looking at the turn of the year, and companies plan hiring around the new financial year. Kysa needs to be in front of them by then.

One System. Five Jobs.

Kysa OS does the work of a researcher and a junior recruiter every weekday, in your voice. It runs on Kysa's own platform, built on the foundations already working in Intrepid OS, with its own data, branding and logins.

How It Runs, Day to Day

Seven steps, and you're needed in one of them. Everything else runs in the background while you're at Intrepid.

1

Find companies

Every few hours it checks funding news and US filings, and keeps HealthTech and MedTech companies that have raised Series B or later in the last six to nine months. If it isn't sure which company a story means, it goes on a short review list before anyone's contacted.

Your part: none
2

Find the right people

At each company it finds the Head of AI, CTO, VP of Engineering or talent lead, checks their work email is real, and notes whether they're advertising ML roles. Each day it also searches LinkedIn for AI and ML engineers with HealthTech experience.

Your part: none
3

Reach out

Short, personal emails and LinkedIn messages written in your voice. They go out only in the right window: 6am to 3pm UK time for the UK and Europe, 3pm to midnight for the Americas. Daily limits keep your accounts safe.

Your part: approve drafts early on, if you want to
4

Handle replies

When someone replies, everything else to them pauses. The AI reads what they've said and answers in your voice. Complaints, fees, salaries and anything unclear come to you instead.

Your part: only the replies it flags
5

Book the call

If they want to talk, it offers times from your Google Calendar (never Tuesdays, Fridays or weekends), books the call, stops messaging and sends you a brief on WhatsApp.

Your part: take the call
6

Keep the record

Every email, message, reply and decision is stored against the person and the company, so you can see exactly what's happened in the last hour. Kysa OS is the database, so there's no separate recruitment system to pay for.

Your part: none
7

Keep you posted

A WhatsApp assistant sends a morning brief, reminds you about anything waiting on you, and takes instructions like "who's waiting on me?" or "pause outreach to Acme".

Your part: a glance each morning

01 · The whole system

The whole system on one page

An automated workflow with AI at the points that need judgement, such as reading replies and writing messages. The rules that matter (who can be contacted, when, and who owns a conversation) are fixed rules, not AI guesses.

AI Where It Helps. Rules Where It Matters.

The system only uses AI where judgement is needed. Everything that protects your name runs on fixed rules that a model can't talk its way round.

The AI does this

Judgement calls

  • Writing and replying in your voice.
  • Checking every draft for made-up roles, salaries or fees before it goes anywhere.
  • Working out which company a funding story is about.
  • Running the WhatsApp assistant.
Fixed rules do this

Everything that protects your name

  • Who can be contacted. An opt-out applies on every channel, for good.
  • When messages go out, and how many a day.
  • Which messages need your approval.
  • Stopping all outreach to someone the moment a call is booked.
Shadow

Drafts everything, sends nothing

For about a week it finds people and writes every message, but nothing goes out. You check a sample for targeting and tone.

Approval

You tap approve

Messages go out when you approve them on WhatsApp or in the app. As your edits drop off, each message type is ready to run on its own.

Autopilot

It runs on its own

Each message type switches to automatic when you're happy with it. You can switch any type on from day one, or back off at any time.

The AI only works from a Kysa information sheet and the person's own record. It never agrees fees or terms.

Everything in the First Release

The whole desk, ready for the new year. The next phase is planned in from the start, so adding to it later won't mean a rebuild.

Kysa's own platform with secure logins, its own database and Kysa branding.
Company finding from funding news and US filings, with a review list for uncertain matches.
Decision-makers with checked work emails, and the ML roles each company is advertising.
A daily LinkedIn search for AI and ML engineers with HealthTech experience.
Email and LinkedIn sequences that keep to your sending windows and daily limits.
AI replies in your voice, with every draft checked before it's sent.
Your tone-of-voice guide, built from your real emails for you to sign off.
Calendar booking and handover, with a WhatsApp brief before every call.
The activity feed, records, pipelines and a dashboard.
The WhatsApp assistant: morning brief, approvals, reminders and questions.
CSV upload for funding lists exported from Crunchbase, Dealroom or similar.
Settings you control, plus opt-out handling and testing before anything goes live.
The next phase

Ready to add when you want it

  • WhatsApp conversations with candidates and clients.
  • A public Kysa jobs page.
  • Sourcing from GitHub, Hugging Face and research papers.
  • Matching candidates to live vacancies.
  • Contracts, invoicing and placement paperwork.
Left out on purpose

Things we won't build

  • AI phone or voice calls. You ruled these out, and we agree.
  • Contact lists from people who aren't free to share them. A paid database gives you the same leads properly.

What You Can Expect

The job is simple: more of the right conversations, with as little of your time as possible.

Your time

Close to calls only

Outside booked calls, the aim is close to no hours a week on Kysa. The desk keeps working on the days you're at Intrepid.

Pipeline

Fresh targets every day

A daily list of newly funded companies, the people who hire there, and engineers worth approaching, without anyone building it by hand.

Speed

Nobody waits a week

On autopilot, interested people hear back within minutes in the sending window. A reply never sits unanswered because you were in a meeting.

Visibility

Everything on record

Every message, reply and booking in one place, so you can pick up any conversation in seconds and see what's working.

£

What placements are worth to Kysa

Move the sliders to match your own terms. The defaults are assumptions for illustration, not forecasts.

Assumption: a modest first year for a one-person desk.
Assumption: a mid-level AI or ML engineer.
Assumption: set this to your own fee terms.
Fee per placement
Fee income a year
Placements to cover the build

Fee per placement is salary × fee rate. Fee income is that, times placements a year. Illustrative only: your real figures replace these once the desk is live.

How We'll Know It's Working

We track five numbers from day one. Targets are set with you after the first four weeks of real data, so they're based on Kysa's market rather than a guess.

From Go-Ahead to Autopilot

Ten weeks to build, a week in shadow mode, then a few weeks of approvals before autopilot. Mailbox warm-up and WhatsApp verification start on day one, because they take weeks however fast we build. You're needed at six points, all marked on the chart.

Go ahead this month and, allowing for a two-week break over Christmas, outreach starts in your name in February, with autopilot running in March. Weeks on the chart are working weeks, so a later start moves everything along by the same amount.

A Few Things From You

Most of these take minutes. The decisions shape how the system sounds and who it talks to, so we'd like them settled before the build starts.

To set up

Accounts and access

  • A LinkedIn profile for outreach, separate from your main one, and a Sales Navigator account.
  • Read access to the inbox we learn your tone from, used for that purpose only.
  • The Kysa domain, logo and any brand assets you have.
  • Corrections to a Kysa information sheet, which we'll draft for you.
To decide

How it should behave

  • How people are told it's AI. We'd suggest a light signature line saying the message comes from Kysa's assistant on your behalf. It still sounds like you.
  • Your call hours, call length, and whether calls run on Teams, Google Meet or phone.
  • The roles, seniority, contract types and countries to target, and any companies to leave out.
  • Whether you want to step in earlier, for example when a client mentions a live vacancy.
  • What time tracking should cover: your own hours on Kysa, or how quickly things get answered.

I cannot recommend this highly enough. The AI training I received was unlike anything else I have come across — it was practical, commercially focused, and immediately applicable to real-world business challenges. Rather than getting lost in theory, every concept was tied directly to tangible outcomes: automating workflows, leveraging AI tools to drive revenue, reducing operational costs, and staying ahead of the competition. The skills I walked away with were not just interesting — they were genuinely marketable. I now have a confident understanding of how to integrate AI into business strategy, use prompt engineering effectively, and identify where AI delivers the highest commercial return. Within weeks of completing the training, I was already applying these skills in my role and seeing measurable results.

As a busy business owner, I’m aware of how pivotal the implementation of AI in our business is. The problem is, my knowledge around AI is limited and I do not have enough time to understand it to implement it efficiently. This is where Kai & Montaj proved their worth and massively helped. They created a plan & structure for us to use AI efficiently which created so many valuable and attainable leads which has seen huge growth within our business over the last 6 months. Thanks Kai & Montaj Digitial!

We had the pleasure of working with Kai at Montaj Digital on our digital marketing, and the experience has been exceptional from start to finish. His professionalism stands out immediately - he’s organised, responsive, and clearly takes pride in delivering high-quality work. What truly sets Kai apart, however, is his unrivalled knowledge of AI integration. He has an impressive ability to identify opportunities to automate and streamline processes, helping us significantly speed up workflows while maintaining accuracy and consistency. His solutions weren’t just technically strong - they were practical, tailored to our business, and delivered with remarkable efficiency. If you’re looking for someone who combines technical expertise with commercial awareness and a genuinely proactive approach, I would highly recommend Kai and the team at Montaj Digital. Steven - ASG

★★★★★
I attended a few of the seminars delivered by Kai and the Montaj Digital team recently and genuinely came away impressed. What stood out wasn’t the hype around AI or just focusing on ‘chat’, but how practical it’s already becoming in everyday working life with automation and agents etc. Seeing how much time can be saved on the repetitive admin, chasing information, notes, calendars and general day-to-day noise definitely got my interest in understanding it properly for myself. Not to replace people or thinking, but to create more time and headspace for the things that actually need attention. For anyone still thinking AI is a distant concept, I’d say we’re already well past that point!
Russell Fox
★★★★★
My initial experience with Montaj Digital at their AI workshop was incredibly impressive. Their knowledge and experience were both intriguing and eye-opening, and they have a way of explaining things in such simple, easy-to-understand terms that makes learning feel comfortable and accessible. The team was so welcoming and genuinely passionate about helping people succeed with the right tools, guidance, and support. I left feeling excited to learn more and truly inspired. Very impressed and looking forward to working with them more in the future!

After meeting with Kai, I have completely changed the way I work! He showed me practical ways to start using AI in my day-to-day business tasks, and the impact was immediate. Before our session, I knew AI was something I should be looking into, but I wasn't sure where to start or how it could actually help me. Kai made everything easy to understand and showed me practical ways to use AI, that I could put into action straight away. THANK YOU!

Attending the AI Summit was a genuinely valuable experience. Kaiyan delivered the session with real energy, clarity, and expertise, making complex topics feel accessible and relevant to today’s workforce challenges.
