Learn about the beginnings, vision and values of the honest, humble and high quality team behind it all
Creative Insights Technologies was founded in early 2023 by Frederik Funk and Karthik Sukumar, driven by a shared belief that innovation shouldn't be slow, expensive, or out of reach.
After years in the corporate world, we saw firsthand how many great ideas never make it past the planning stage. Because the process was too complex, too costly, or too slow.
We started Creative Insights with a clear mission: to help startups and SMEs bring their ideas to life quickly, affordably, and with purpose. We’re here to make innovation accessible because good ideas deserve a chance, no matter where they come from.

We offer customized solutions for each individual client, so the cost of projects can vary depending on the work involved. Depending on the project, we can work on either a fixed price model or an hourly rate. The most important thing is that we are confident that we can find a way to bring your product to market.

That depends on the current workload of our team and the size of the project. From experience and because we are quite an agile company, we can usually start smaller projects within a month.
As soon as you get in touch with us, we start the conversation and together we define the concrete steps to implement the project from start to finish. Once the specification of the project has been finalized, we begin the step-by-step implementation. The initial meetings in the "discovery phase", until it is clear that we will carry out the project together, are free of charge.
Thank you for recognizing that! The teamwork aspect is definitely very important to us and we are always looking for motivated and talented people. Please checkout our careers page and if we have something suitable, we will get back to you!
