ABOUT MKULTRAMAN
Fractional IT for foreign-owned Japan SMEs
MKUltraman is a Tokyo-based consultancy specializing in digital infrastructure. With over a decade of experience in the Japanese market, Matt Ketchum has audited, revamped, or overseen the technology operations of more than 40 foreign-owned SMEs across various sectors, including food and beverage, media, professional services, events, and retail. A common issue these businesses face is tool sprawl, often having 30-50 SaaS subscriptions, many of which are forgotten, with contracts that automatically renew in both JPY and USD. Additionally, workflows that ceased functioning six months ago continue to incur costs. This leads to overspending, unrecognized bottlenecks, and teams wasting hours each week due to switching between tools and redundant data entry. Three engagements are available, each with set pricing: What's the distinction?
