Who we are
BLOCKS is bringing big-company cloud efficiency to startups and SMEs. We guarantee 20% savings from day one by pooling cloud spend into a group-buying model. From there, our AI agent “Major Tom” acts like a virtual DevOps engineer, finding waste, optimizing infrastructure, all in an automated way to maximize cloud efficiency. And this is just the beginning, more to follow in our discussion with you.
Our founders (Oliver and Andreas) are serial entrepreneurs, have raised >$1 billion, and successfully sold multiple businesses.
