Hi,

I’m writing this myself, not as “the company”, but as Tom — the founder of Fugoya.

When I started Fugoya, a lot of people told me:
“If you want this to work, you need to focus on teams.”

But I didn’t want to do that.

I wanted to build something for freelancers — the underrepresented heroes who carry a huge part of the world on their shoulders. People who do great work, often alone, often invisible, and somehow still keep everything moving. I believed (stubbornly, maybe) that you deserved tools that were just as polished, just as powerful, and just as respectful of your time.

And honestly? I still believe that.

The hard truth is that serving freelancers is incredibly difficult. Margins are tight. Needs are diverse. And over the last year, things got even tougher: inflation hit hard, creative work became more uncertain, and AI reduced or reshaped job opportunities faster than many could adapt. All of that made it harder for you — and in turn, harder for Fugoya.

That’s why this message is not about failure — it’s about transition.
