From Munich, we build what we recommend.
Bytes & Pixels is an owner-led digital consultancy founded in Munich in 2019. We work with PE-owned and owner-led companies in Bavaria and across the DACH region – on site in Munich or remotely.
Munich combines decision-makers, talent, and AI expertise
Bytes & Pixels has been based in Munich since its founding in 2019, at Gröbenzeller Straße 40. Mid-market headquarters, corporate groups, private equity houses, and family offices sit close together in the region.
TUM and LMU, the UnternehmerTUM startup center, and the appliedAI initiative train engineers and AI researchers and keep that expertise in the region. The result is short distances to decision-makers, on-site workshops within an hour, and a talent pool for Agentic Engineering.
Five services, from assessment to running systems
- AI Transformation
From a prioritized roadmap with business cases to agents and workflows running in daily operation.
- Technical Due Diligence
Independent assessment of architecture, tech stack, and engineering organization ahead of investment and acquisition decisions.
- Agentic Engineering
Introducing AI-native software development into existing engineering teams, with toolchain and quality assurance.
- Fractional CTO
Technical leadership on demand for portfolio companies and owner-led businesses.
- AI Workshops
Workshops for leadership and teams to spot levers, evaluate use cases, and set priorities.

On-site in Munich, remote across the DACH region
The first conversation happens in Munich or remotely, whichever gets you faster to a decision. Workshops take place on site so that decision-makers and business units sit in the same room. Implementation happens with your team.
We deliver our results in German, and in English for international investors – from due diligence reports and roadmaps to ongoing project communication.
