About us

Henning Kruthaup
Founder and Managing Director
Henning Kruthaup is an entrepreneur from Berlin and founder of Growthpaca GmbH. With a business degree from Missouri State University (cum laude, 2006) and over 15 years of experience in building digital businesses, he has already delivered several successful projects.
The idea for FaxMonkey arose from personal experience: when he needed to send a fax and did not have a fax machine, the search for a simple solution was frustrating. Complicated sign-up processes, opaque pricing, unnecessary subscriptions, it could be better.
FaxMonkey is the result, a service that does exactly what it should do, send faxes. No frills, no subscription, no compulsory registration. Simply upload the document, pay, done.
Our mission
Faxing sounds old-fashioned? Perhaps. But the reality is different: millions of documents are sent by fax every day, to authorities, courts, medical practices, solicitors and businesses. Fax remains the official communication channel in many areas.
The problem: very few people still have a fax machine at home. And if you only need to send a fax once a year, you do not want to take out a subscription or wrestle with complicated software.
Our vision
A world where nobody has to buy a fax machine or sign up for a subscription just to fax a document once. We believe that sending a fax should be as simple as sending an email, and that is exactly what we make possible.
The story behind FaxMonkey
FaxMonkey did not arise from a business idea but from a concrete problem. As an entrepreneur I regularly had to send documents by fax, cancellations, official paperwork, contracts. But owning a fax machine felt anachronistic.
The existing online fax services all had the same issue: they tried to push me into a subscription, required registration or had opaque pricing structures. I just wanted to send a single fax, why did it have to be so complicated?
So we built FaxMonkey, a service that does exactly what users need. Upload the document, enter the number, pay, done. No registration, no subscription, no hidden costs. The price is clear upfront, the transmission report arrives by email. That is how faxing should be.
