Work with us

Get more out of EventCatalog, with help from the team that builds it.

Workshops, training, catalog reviews and hands-on rollout help. We work with you and your team to get off the ground, or to get a catalog you already have working harder.

Questions teams bring to us

  • How do we get our other teams using the catalog?
  • Have we modelled our domains the right way?
  • What can AI document for us, and what do people still need to write?
  • How do we keep the catalog current once it is built?
  • We have a proof of concept. What should we do next?

What we help your team understand

Every session is shaped around your architecture, but these are the topics we come back to most.

What EventCatalog is

Where it fits in how you document your architecture, and what your team can expect from it.

How to use it

Domains, services, messages, schemas and flows, and how to model them so they make sense for your organisation.

Getting the most value from it

Deciding what the catalog is for, who owns it and how to get people who were not involved in building it to use it.

Best practices

The patterns we see work, like starting with one area, deploying early and automating from your specs. Read how teams use EventCatalog for a taste.

Using AI across your architecture

Automated ways to document your systems and answer questions about them across the organisation, using skills and the MCP server.

David Boyne

You work directly with the founder

David Boyne is the founder and core maintainer of EventCatalog. He has over 15 years of experience in distributed systems, has advocated for event-driven architecture best practices at AWS, contributed to AsyncAPI and wrote EDA Visuals. Because he builds the product, he can also tell you where it is heading and how that affects your plans.

Common questions

Do we need a commercial licence first?

No. You can work with us while you are still evaluating EventCatalog. The Success Programme is built for exactly that stage.

How is it priced?

Each engagement has a fixed price. We agree it with you after a short call, once we know your team, your catalog and what you want to get out of it.

Can you build the catalog for us?

These engagements have a fixed scope and do not include development work or open-ended consultancy unless your order says so. If you have custom work in mind, tell us about it and we will say whether we can help.

Is this the same as support?

No. Support is for problems with the product and comes with a commercial licence. This is dedicated time with your team.

How many people can join a workshop?

There is no hard limit, but workshops usually work best with 8 to 20 people. Hybrid sessions are fine too.

Do you run workshops on governing distributed systems?

Yes. David runs Tame the Mess, a hands-on governance workshop that goes beyond EventCatalog. You can find it at boyney.io/workshops.
