“Can a purpose-built ERP eliminate operational fragmentation for janitorial contractors and capture the payroll and accounting workflows that currently run across multiple disconnected tools?”
Brightgo was founded in 2023 by Gerald Fong, a former Instagram engineering manager, to build a vertical ERP for the janitorial and building services contractor (BSC) industry. The platform combines operations management, workforce tracking, and payroll into a single system. As Brightgo moved upmarket toward larger cleaning companies, it embedded payroll infrastructure via Salsa to handle complex hourly, union, and non-union pay configurations without building payroll tax engines in-house.
Brightgo's payroll is powered by Salsa.
Brightgo was founded by Gerald Fong and is founded in 2023, headquartered in San Bruno, CA.
Brightgo has raised $3M in total (latest round: Seed).
