No investors, no board. - Long-term operation: products are not built with a sale or an exit in mind. ## History - 2013: The beginning. Foldercrate starts in Solothurn, Switzerland, with the conviction that software can be useful, private and profitable without outside money. - 2015: The first product. The privacy-focused platform launches: cloud storage, collaboration and email where privacy is the product, not the price you pay for it. - 2019: A new chapter. The platform era ends. Foldercrate takes what four years of competing with surveillance-subsidized giants taught it and shifts toward focused, independent SaaS products. - 2021: Widening the focus. The studio model takes shape: a shared Swiss-hosting backbone, shared design standards, and a roadmap of focused tools instead of one platform fighting on every front. - 2023: Bravli launches. The all-in-one link platform arrives. Short links, bio pages, QR codes and file sharing on one privacy-first analytics layer. The studio has its flagship. - 2024: Uptimewolf & Snippli. The catalog doubles: around-the-clock monitoring with Uptimewolf, and conversion widgets without the bloat with Snippli. - 2025: Smart SEO Audit. SEO auditing joins the family, with 50+ checks, AI-prioritized fixes and white-label reports, built for site owners and agencies alike. - 2026: Logiwolf: analytics without surveillance. The newest product closes the loop: cookieless web analytics, hosted in Switzerland, running on every Foldercrate website. The studio now covers links, uptime, conversion, SEO and analytics. ## Products ### Bravli - URL: https://bravli.com - Page: https://foldercrate.com/products/bravli - Category: Link management - Launched: 2023 - Summary: Short links, bio pages, QR codes and file sharing in one account.
