Belenox · Cast a new light

Bringing to light
what does not exist yet.

I'm Cédric Druck, an applied mathematics engineer (optimisation, operations research). Over twenty years building the forecasting software clinical trial supply teams plan with; today I lead Trialzen, and with AI I build new software of any kind, fast.

Today

Discover Trialzen

My main activity is Trialzen, which I co-founded and lead as CEO. Trialzen builds clinical trial supply forecasting and optimisation software: how much drug to make, pack and ship, to which depots and sites, and when. Clinical trial supply is my deepest field: it is what Trialzen does. Belenox is the company through which I do the rest of my work.

How I work

A consultant who builds: mathematics and engineering, from your need to a solution that goes beyond it.

Understand the business

The trade, the need, the real question behind the request. Twenty years of consulting, from pharma to energy, steel and cement, taught me to ask the right questions before writing a line.

From a sketch to a product: a dashed outline, a grey model, a finished block in the mark's colourssketchmodelproduct

Design the architecture

Model the problem honestly, with its constraints and its uncertainty, then design a solution that still holds when the volumes or the rules change.

Build beyond the brief

The best technology for the problem, not the most familiar one, and AI to go faster and further. The aim is to impress you, not to tick a box.

Validate and look after it

Test, measure, correct, all the way. I am a perfectionist: a problem is solved only when it is solved completely, and it stays solved.

Applied AI

Anything you need built, built fast.

AI agents and tools that do real work, on solid engineering foundations. Twenty years of method decide what to build; AI makes it fast. Four products built this way:

  1. Lighten, for Mayanfa

    For Mayanfa · iPhone and Android

    As CTO, I designed and built the app end to end.

  2. Mirmex Motor

    For Mirmex Motor · motor design

    A legacy Python engineering tool rebuilt as a modern web application.

  3. Prancer, at 4G Clinical

    For 4G Clinical · one year

    A complete RTSM product in one year, from a sketch on a napkin.

  4. Belenox Site Studio

    For independents and small businesses

    Websites for independents and small businesses, compared with the current site and read by a person before anything is published: this site among them.

About

Cédric Druck

I have worn every hat a young company needs: developer, architect, project and product manager, support, sales, marketing, team lead and executive.

I set a high bar for my own work. When I take on a problem, I go deep, and I do not stop until it is solved all the way.

And I never stop learning. Right now that curiosity has a name: AI, which I explore day and night. It has pushed my creativity further than anything before, and I speak about it regularly at conferences.
