About us

We come from the businesses we build for.

We grew up around traditional family service businesses. The kind where the work gets done in the field all day, and the invoicing gets done at the kitchen table at night.

We watched people who were great at the work spend their evenings chasing signatures, digging through email for approvals, and re-typing numbers between systems just to get paid for jobs they had already finished.

Ontem exists so that finished work turns into cash without that second shift. Not by replacing the tools those businesses run on, but by connecting the work around them.

What we believe

Getting paid should not be a second job

The people who do the work should not spend their nights assembling paperwork to be paid for it.

Your systems are not the problem

The ERP, the inbox, the job folders. They all hold a piece of the truth. The work is connecting them, not replacing them.

Start where it hurts

One workflow at a time, chosen by you. Trust is earned invoice by invoice, not promised in a migration plan.

We would rather hear about your billing cycle than talk about ourselves.
