"Black Box cut our SaaS spend by 60% in the first month. For the first time, we actually understand our tech stack and have a clear path forward."
CEO, eCommerce Scale-up
"Working with Marcel and Rudi is like having a cheat code. They're operators who've seen it all, and they give you the playbook, not a sales pitch."
Founder, B2B Tech
We've been in your shoes. We've built and scaled companies, navigated the challenges, and learned what it truly takes to succeed.

Co-Founder, Operator & Scaler
A founder-operator who has lived the scale-up journey from startup to a $100M exit. Marcel scaled premium cycling brand Factor Bikes 6x by architecting a digital ecosystem that could handle hyper-growth without breaking.
His expertise lies in building practical, high-leverage systems and brand strategies that give founders control, not complexity. He is currently repeating the playbook, building Mummu Cycling to a $10M+ exit.
"Growth doesn't come from adding more tools; it comes from building a smarter, leaner operational engine."

Co-Founder, Enterprise Architect
An enterprise leader with a practitioner's mindset. As Chief Digital Officer at Fisher & Paykel, Rudi led global digital transformations for the $1B+ company, architecting systems that are powerful enough for enterprise demands but simple enough for any team to manage.
He specializes in demystifying complexity and making enterprise-grade AI and architecture accessible to businesses of all sizes.
"Enterprise-level capability shouldn't mean enterprise-level complexity. The goal is to democratize powerful systems."
Black Box Digital was born from a simple observation: growing businesses are forced to choose between expensive, slow enterprise consultants and fast, but often fragile, startup solutions. We bridge that gap. Rudi’s enterprise experience ensures your systems are scalable and secure. Marcel’s operator background ensures they are practical, lean, and drive immediate growth.
"We build the systems we wished existed when we were scaling."
Tell us about your biggest challenge. We'll tell you if we can help. No sales pitch, just a conversation between operators.
No spam. No pressure. Just a call with real operators.
