Marko O. Kraemer
CEO & Founder, Kortix
Spawned in Frankfurt 21 years ago. Minecraft at 8 got me into programming, graphic design & running my own server. Started selling websites and coined it BluePage, sales-oriented landing pages for local businesses. That turned into GastroPage — restaurant digitalisation focussed.
In Germany you can't run a company under 18, so I had to go to court. I won. And at 14, co-founded
Plutus, a software dev company, and
Golixxo — a European Microsoft Teams. Ran all of this throughout high school with a team of ~10 — $2M, 30+ projects.
At 19, built
SoftGen — an AI web app builder. Acquired for seven figures.
Now building
Kortix — the open-source (★ 19,807) operating system for AGI. Building out of Belgrade, Serbia & San Francisco, USA.
