iTrinity
Czech Republic
iTrinity is a Slovak-based software holding company that acquires and operates a portfolio of SaaS products. Founded in 2014 as Mangools, a bootstrapped SEO toolset, the company began acquiring businesses in 2018 in partnership with Palefire Capital, a Czech private equity fund that owns 50% of iTrinity. As of early 2025, the portfolio spans eight products, including Uptime Robot, Mangools, Warm Up Inbox, Deadline Funnel, and Topic Ranker, among others. The combined portfolio generated approximately $25 million in ARR in 2024, up 46% from roughly $18 million in 2023 and more than triple the $7 million recorded at the end of 2021. The business is highly profitable, with an EBITDA margin of 56% in 2024, translating to approximately $14 million in EBITDA. iTrinity funds its acquisitions entirely from operating cash flow, carrying no debt. The company employs 90 people and operates a shared-services model for marketing and customer support while maintaining separate development teams for individual products. CEO Mike Afanas told Latka in February 2025 that iTrinity is actively seeking additional acquisitions, typically paying 2x to 8x ARR in all-cash deals structured as 80% at close and 20% released from escrow within three to six months.
