Henning Kruthaup
Founder & 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 building digital companies, he has already launched several successful projects.
The idea for FaxMonkey came from personal experience, when he needed to send a fax and did not have a fax machine, finding a simple solution was frustrating. Complicated sign-ups, opaque pricing, unnecessary subscriptions, there had to be a better way.
FaxMonkey is the result, a service that does exactly what it is supposed to do, send faxes. No frills, no subscription, no forced registration. Just upload the document, pay, done.
Our mission
Faxing sounds old-fashioned? Maybe. Reality is different, millions of documents are sent by fax every day, to authorities, courts, medical practices, lawyers, 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 a subscription or to fight through complicated software.
Our vision
A world where no one has to buy a fax machine or sign up for a subscription just to fax a document once. We believe sending a fax should be as easy as sending an email, and that is exactly what we make possible.
The story behind FaxMonkey
FaxMonkey did not start as a business idea but as a solution to a concrete problem. As an entrepreneur I regularly had to send documents by fax, cancellations, official documents, contracts. But owning a fax machine felt anachronistic.
Existing online fax services had the same issues, they pushed me into a subscription, required registration, or had opaque pricing. I just wanted to send a fax once, 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.
