What Freelo does

Freelo Bay s.r.o. is a Czech-headquartered project and task management SaaS company founded in 2015, operating from Pardubice and registered in Hradec Králové. The platform targets small and mid-market teams across Europe (2,000+ teams cited) with a unified workspace combining task management, Kanban boards, Gantt/Timeline views, time tracking with hourly-rate billing, recurring tasks, dashboards, calendar, and external user sharing for client collaboration. Distribution is product-led via a 14-day free trial (no credit card) and a free individual tier, with an optional free online consultation for mid-market conversion; the company is bootstrapped and founder-controlled, with CEO Karel Dytrych leading alongside co-founders Jan Kulda and Karel Borkovec.

The underlying technology stack is a cloud SaaS delivered through a progressive web application, native iOS and Android apps, and an open public REST API, with single sign-on via Google and Microsoft OAuth. In 2025 the company layered an AI platform on top — Freelo MCP server (Model Context Protocol), a Claude Freelo Skill for native Claude.ai integration, the ToDoo in-app multilingual AI assistant, an n8n automation integration, a developer CLI, and a Chrome extension (in beta) — all bundled into paid plans at no additional charge. Integrations span Raynet CRM (bidirectional sync), Fakturoid accounting, Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, plus automation hubs Make and n8n, supporting a workflow-hub positioning.

The business model is freemium plus per-team subscription (monthly or annual billing) with unlimited invited users per team, rather than per-seat pricing. Revenue is generated entirely from recurring team subscriptions; geographic reach spans at least 11 European countries (Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania, Poland, Hungary, Denmark, Germany, Estonia, Latvia, Netherlands, Spain). Marketing relies on content (blog, Business Wiki, webinars, podcast), comparison pages targeting Western incumbents (Trello, Asana, Basecamp, ClickUp, Jira, Notion), and a community/partner program. The company is GDPR-compliant, processes data in the EU, and has not disclosed any external funding rounds or institutional ownership.
