A young studio with its own products
ctrlCheese was founded in Germany in 2025. We build software for clients and bring our own products to market at the same time – CtrlField, CtrlTheme and the Zad app.
Less overhead, more ownership
Before ctrlCheese we worked in startups, agencies and as freelancers. We saw projects fail because of too many coordination rounds, changing contacts and unclear ownership.
That is why you work directly with the developers who build your project. And because we run our own products, we know what software needs after launch: updates, monitoring and a codebase people still enjoy working on three years later.
How we work
Direct contact
No account managers in between: you talk to the people who write the code.
Only what is needed
Features nobody uses cost time, money and maintenance. We tell you when something does not make sense.
Technology serves the goal
We choose the stack for your problem – not for what we would like to try next.
Ownership into production
We measure ourselves by the running product, not by closed tickets.
Let’s get to know each other.
A short call is enough to see whether we are a good fit.
