About Pocketa
Renovation, organised from the beginning
Pocketa is being built to simplify renovation by connecting planning, product sourcing and project organisation, starting with UK kitchen homeowners who need a calmer, clearer record.
Signed-in homeowners can use projects, checklists and sourcing in the workspace, including quote requests and supplier checkout handoffs where suppliers are live. This page explains the direction and the problems we are solving. Pocketa does not take payment. Suppliers can apply at For suppliers.
Why Pocketa exists
A kitchen renovation is not only a design or shopping exercise. It is also a sourcing, sequencing and tracking challenge, the messy middle where homeowners need a calmer place to see what may still apply, what is already sorted and what should be confirmed with a fitter or supplier before purchase.
The problem we are focused on
These tensions show up in many projects. Your own list may differ, and specialist requirements should always be checked with a qualified professional where regulations may apply.
Too many suppliers
Kitchen projects pull quotes, ranges and lead times from different channels. Without one record it is harder to compare honestly or keep decisions aligned.
Confusing terminology
Specifications and compatibility language can stay opaque until you are mid project. Clearer categories and next steps reduce time lost decoding brochures alone.
Missing parts and small kits
Hinges, waste kits, fillers, trims and sealants surface late when they are not visible early. A structured list makes handover to trades simpler if you confirm fit on site.
Budget uncertainty
Scope, product level and timing all move numbers. Seeing spend alongside categories and purchases helps you compare and record decisions whether you are ahead of the next purchase or catching up mid-project.
Trade sequencing
Trades often need answers before every product is locked. A shared project record makes sequencing and dependencies easier to explain on site.
Compatibility and long lead times
Appliances, cabinets and services interact. Lead times shift what you can order when, keeping compatibility notes and dates in one place reduces costly rework.
What Pocketa is being built to do
The platform direction follows our mission: one guided experience that keeps structure, sequence and control visible, not replacing on site expertise. Features may roll out gradually for early users.
Project setup
Signed-in homeowners answer setup questions and open a checklist shaped to their stage, then browse sourcing by category where catalogue content is published.
Checklist structure
Categories, tasks and records reflect what commonly applies to kitchen renovations, editable as you learn more on site.
Product category organisation
Product areas such as cabinets, worktops and appliances are grouped so you can see what is still in play.
Bought elsewhere tracking
Items purchased outside Pocketa sit in the project record so the picture stays honest to how you buy.
Supplier discovery and journeys
Where suppliers are live, homeowners may follow checkout handoffs on supplier sites, request quotes, book consultation-first journeys or ask for samples where configured.
Project records
Notes, saved links and delivery details sit alongside purchases so the renovation story stays in one place.
What makes Pocketa different
Pocketa is being shaped so it stays useful when you buy elsewhere. That honesty is part of the trust model. The aim is a project record that reflects real decisions, not only purchases that pass through a single checkout. You should still compare prices, read supplier terms and confirm fit and suitability before you commit.
Early release note
Signed-in homeowners can create projects, use checklists and browse sourcing where catalogue content is published. Where suppliers are live, the workspace supports supplier-site checkout handoffs, quote requests, optional samples and consultation-first journeys. Pocketa does not take payment. Suitable suppliers can submit the full application at For suppliers; review and listing stay manual.
