A company building the tool sponsorship was missing

Zephlo is a company with one focus: software for the people who run sponsorship at sports clubs. The idea is simple. The commercial side of sponsorship runs on spreadsheets, inboxes and goodwill — and the moment a sponsor asks what they got for their money, nobody can answer quickly. That's the problem worth solving: not selling the deal, proving it.

It's a founder-led company on a straightforward B2B model — one subscription per club. We stay close to the problem and lean on real depth: a founder with hands-on experience in the field, backed by a mentor with over twelve years in sponsorship keeping the product honest. We're building it in the open, and looking for the first pilot clubs to build it with — one at a time.

  • Evidence first

    If it isn't timestamped, it didn't happen. Every claim in the product traces back to proof.

  • Built with clubs

    Every feature starts from a real Monday-morning problem at a club, not a roadmap written in advance.

  • Quiet software

    No dashboards for the sake of dashboards. Zephlo speaks up when a renewal is at risk and stays out of the way otherwise.

From the founder

I'm a founder and a student, close enough to sponsorship to feel how broken the tooling is — and I've got a mentor with twelve years in the field keeping me honest. Zephlo is the tool clubs should have had all along. If it saves your club one relationship a season, it's done its job. Tell me what's missing — I read every request myself.

What's next

Where Zephlo is heading

Some of it's already built; the rest is on the way. Where the product is going:

    Xero accounting sync

    PLACEHOLDER — sponsor invoices flow straight into your accounts. Invoicing is built; the Xero connection is the last switch.

  2. In development

    Salesforce & HubSpot import

    PLACEHOLDER — bring your whole portfolio across from the CRM you use today, not just spreadsheets.

  3. In development

    Sign in with Google or Microsoft

    PLACEHOLDER — one-click sign-in with the account your club already runs on.

  4. In development

    Files from Drive & OneDrive

    PLACEHOLDER — attach contracts and proof straight from Google Drive or OneDrive instead of re-uploading.

  5. In development

    Relationship map

    PLACEHOLDER — see who knows whom across your sponsors, contacts and prospects, and the warmest path to a new deal.

  6. In development

    Multi-club workspaces & SSO

    PLACEHOLDER — one organisation, several clubs or teams, single sign-on. The enterprise setup.
