Dieter Rappold 🔜 MAU Vegas — CEO
I’m the co-Founder & CEO of ContextSDK and I am betting everything on on-device intelligence as mobile’s next growth engine. At ContextSDK we are building the platform that finally unlocks what every mobile product leader has known but few have acted on: the user’s real-world context holds vastly more predictive power than legacy server-side analytics. Our on-device AI interprets real signals instantaneously, enabling apps to engage users at the right moment with the right action, without sending personal data to the cloud - preserving privacy while driving measurable growth. We’ve raised early backing from top angels and led significant seed investment rounds, demonstrating that the market is ready for a new category of mobile infrastructure built around contextual decisioning at the edge, not just backend dashboards. Our SDK processes billions of events for apps and AdNetworks seeking higher conversions, smarter engagement and lower churn - all through lightweight on-device models and a privacy-first architecture. My day-to-day is about scaling this vision: growing the team, defining product strategy, setting the growth playbook, and evangelizing why mobile growth will be driven by on-device context, not cloud lag. I am deeply convinced that apps that adapt to the moment will outperform those that react after the fact. Before ContextSDK I spent years founding and scaling venture-backed businesses and digital platforms. I co-founded one of the largest independent digital agencies in the DACH region, scaled it to multiple offices and a 180+ team before exiting, and later helped launch and grow Speedinvest Pirates, working with early-stage startups with a focus on growth. I’ve also been an active business angel, backing promising founders and technologies across Europe. I speak and write frequently about product strategy, mobile ecosystems and the future of real-time user engagement and entrepreneurship - and I am always interested in connecting with founders, builders and leaders shaping the next era of mobile and edge-AI innovation.
