aethren
We didn't set out to start a company.
We set out to fix something stupid.
The Origin Story
Born from Frustration
Watching PMs drowning in spreadsheets, teams missing deadlines because information lived in silos, and brilliant minds reduced to human copy-paste machines.
The Revelation
Project management isn't broken because it's complicated. It's broken because we've accepted fragmented workflows as normal when they should be seamless.
The Rebellion
We decided to build what every PM secretly dreams of: a system that actually understands projects, not just tracks them.
"Why is project management still this bad?"
Here we are, well into the 2020s. PMOs are still drowning in spreadsheets, teams are burned out by endless status updates, and brilliant people are reduced to human copy-paste machines. This shouldn't be normal.
So we rebelled.
We started obsessing — and we mean truly obsessing about what's broken. We spent years analyzing how projects actually work in the real world.
What We're Building
Polz is the world's first AI-powered project intelligence platform designed for actual humans who manage complex projects.
We're not just improving spreadsheets and calling it a revolution.
We're building actual intelligence into the fabric of how projects run.
Polz doesn't guess. It listens, learns, and helps you execute with clarity and foresight.
Behind all the tech is something most platforms forget:
love.
Love for Clarity
No more digging through endless threads to understand what's actually happening.
Clean Design
Beautiful interfaces that make complex projects feel manageable and intuitive.
Things That Just Work
No more fighting with tools. Polz works with you, not against you.
Why aethren?
We believe the best products come from obsession and dissatisfaction in equal measure.
aethren isn't another SaaS company trying to build all the things. We're craftspeople building exactly one thing: intelligent tools that don't have to apologise for existing.
We're not trying to be another tool in your stack.
We're here to be the one you actually want to use.
