Stop juggling tools.
Most companies use separate systems for HR, payroll, and equity. Here's what that costs you — and what changes when everything is connected.

The gaps that cost you
Every point solution creates blind spots. Here's where they break down.
HR-only tools
- No payroll — you still need a separate system for salary runs and tax filings.
- No equity awareness — employee exits don't trigger vesting stops or buyback workflows.
- Due diligence is manual — HR data lives in isolation, so you export and reconcile every round.
Payroll-only tools
- No employee lifecycle — onboarding, offboarding, and org changes happen elsewhere.
- ESOP exercises are invisible — payroll doesn't know about equity events until you tell it.
- Compliance gaps — without HR context, statutory deductions are often miscalculated.
Equity-only tools
- No payroll integration — ESOP tax events require manual handoff to payroll every time.
- No HR data — vesting schedules can't auto-adjust for leaves, exits, or role changes.
- Investor reporting is siloed — cap table data doesn't connect to headcount or compensation.
