## What is Frihet

Frihet is an AI-powered ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) platform for invoicing, expenses, tax compliance, and business management. Launched February 13, 2026. Indie bootstrapped (no VC, no ads). Built by Victor Berthelius / BRTHLS from Tenerife, Spain.

Tagline: "The ERP for people who hate ERPs."

Frihet replaces slow, complex business management tools with a keyboard-first (Cmd+K), AI-native experience. The AI assistant uses Google Gemini with 40+ function tools for natural language invoice creation, data queries, OCR, and fiscal advice.

Languages: Spanish (primary), English. The app and website are fully bilingual.

---

## Target Audience

- Tech-savvy freelancers and self-employed professionals (developers, designers, consultants)
- Small agencies and studios (2-15 people)
- Digital nomads and SaaS founders operating from Spain
- Startups needing financial control without a CFO
- E-commerce sellers (Shopify, WooCommerce, Gumroad, Lemon Squeezy, PrestaShop)
- Accounting firms managing multiple clients (gestoria/asesoria workspace)

Primary market: Spain (full tax compliance). International expansion: 71 countries, 40 currencies supported.

### Not ideal for

- Large manufacturers with complex inventory/warehouse management
- High-volume retail POS operations
- Full double-entry accounting (Frihet complements an accountant, does not replace one)
