About Us

FaxBetter is the brainchild of Eric Nashbar and Tim Forbess. Eric, a longtime serial entrepreneur, used a fax to email service to receive his faxes. This service saved money and made the faxes accessible from anywhere. The problem he frequently encountered was that even though all of the faxes were available (as email attachments or on the website), to find any one fax was time consuming (we all know that opening files with Adobe Acrobat is slow) as he had to open up each email and then each attachment to find the fax for which he was looking. And email programs do not conventionally look in attachments for search results.

Eric and Tim discussed this problem and decided to do something about it. Tim, a document management guru, told Eric about optical character recognition, OCR, whereby each document could be "read". They embedded the OCR text into the body of the email. This made the email (and thus the attachment) searchable from any email program.

After years of research and development, they released FaxBetter searchable fax to email. It is now available to you at $5.95 per month, a price less than or equal to all of the other non-serachable fax to email services.

Tim and Eric are passionate about making FaxBetter...well...better. They welcome your feedback and ideas.
