Independent.
Involved.
A Swiss technology company.
A technology company
that owns its work.
K2ELK is based in Aarau and owns four businesses.
They cover web and software, applied AI, and property management software. Each one was built to be used every day, not to sit in a portfolio.
We also take on client work through the group: websites, applications, AI and the IT underneath them. That work funds the businesses and keeps us close to how software is really used.

Different businesses.
One way of working.
Each business has its own customers, priorities and pace. What they share is how decisions get made: close to the work, with the people who will have to live with the result.
No holding-company layer, no quarterly theatre. If something needs deciding, you are talking to an owner.

Small enough that
the builders decide.
K2ELK is deliberately small. The people who make the call are the people doing the work, which is why there is no account layer between you and a project. Five disciplines carry it, and most work pulls on more than one.
See the open roles ↗Web & software
The sites and applications themselves, from the first sketch through to the release and whatever the release turns up.
Applied AI
Putting models into real workflows: retrieval, evaluation, and deciding where a person has to stay in the loop.
Design
Product direction and interface work, including the design systems that keep the tenth screen as considered as the first.
IT & cloud
Hosting, infrastructure and integrations, set up so the businesses keep running without anyone watching them.
Customers & growth
Understanding what people actually need, and turning a good conversation into work worth doing.
