Build

Websites and software built around the actual business problem.

ICE builds template-led and custom websites, ecommerce stores, SaaS products, web applications, internal tools and custom software. Platform selection depends on requirements, budget, integrations and long-term ownership, not on forcing one solution.

Karl Landauer

Founder & Managing Director

Founder-led, close to the work.

Karl Landauer is directly involved across performance strategy, media buying, tracking and reporting, ecommerce builds and software-product development. The principle behind ICE is that the right answer may be a campaign change, a conversion fix, a better website, a custom system, or a clearer measurement framework, not automatically more spend or more code.

ICE prefers direct communication, measurable checkpoints and honest boundaries. The work is judged by whether it solves the commercial problem, not by activity volume.
