About us

We are passionate about the future of our customers

A team of former sales leads, ops pros, and product builders, backed by some of the sharpest founders and GTM minds in tech

We got experience

We're a team of former sales leaders, RevOps strategists, and product designers who’ve spent years inside high-growth startups and scaling teams. We've built pipelines from scratch, wrestled with bloated CRMs, and watched deals fall through the cracks because the tools just didn’t work the way people do. Ælen is the result of that experience — a CRM designed by people who’ve actually lived the pain of selling, managing, and growing.
