About Brightenly

Founder

Hi, I’m Tomo—founder, former freelancer, and someone who’s been right where you are. Before I started building software, I worked at the world’s number one CRM as a regional manager and at the leading fintech platform as an architect. But my journey didn’t start there—it began with freelancing.

As a developer and translator, I juggled multiple clients and projects. Managing my business should have been simple, but every tool I tried was either too complicated, too expensive, or both. The learning curves felt impossible, and I often found myself wrestling with software instead of growing my business.

That’s when I decided to change things. I started building a CRM from the ground up—designed specifically for freelancers and small businesses like yours.

Who We Are

We’re a small but ambitious team with one goal: helping you grow your business while simplifying how you manage it. With an AI-first approach, we’re creating software that works for you—not against you.

Of course, we’re building this solution with freelancers like you because we know the tremendous value you bring to the world. Your creativity, hard work, and dedication deserve tools that make your life easier, not harder.

We believe CRM should be simple, intuitive, and empowering. It should feel like a partner, not a project. Like you, we’re taking small steps to make a big difference. Together, we’re building something better—something that will help you focus on what you do best.

Let’s make managing your business the easiest part of your day.


Our Values

At Brightenly, we’re committed to creating an inclusive, equitable, and welcoming space for everyone. We celebrate all ethnicities, sexualities, genders, (dis)abilities, neurodiversities, and backgrounds. We believe you matter, and we’re genuinely glad you’re here.

This commitment stems from my own experiences. Before founding Brightenly, I worked on global public health projects with the Tuberculosis Research Center, supported by the World Bank and Global Fund. One of my most cherished memories is working in a remote hospital on the breathtaking South Pacific island of Kiribati. The beauty of the land was only matched by the resilience and kindness of its people.

These experiences shaped my belief that everyone, no matter where they’re from or what challenges they face, deserves tools and opportunities to thrive. At Brightenly, we’re here to support you on your journey, every step of the way.
