HR & Recruiting
Onboarding, offboarding, HR business partnering and recruiting — run by a dedicated team that plugs into how you already work. No hiring, no equity, no overhead.
Trusted by leading startups.
What we handle
People operations, without the headcount
Growing teams need HR before they can justify a full-time hire. We give you a senior people function on demand — the processes, the paperwork, and the judgment calls — so founders can stay focused on the product.
Onboarding
New hires productive from day one — contracts, accounts, and a structured first-week plan handled end to end.
Offboarding
Clean, compliant exits that protect the company — documentation, releases and handovers done right.
HR Business Partner
A senior HR partner on call for the decisions that matter — policy, performance, comp and org design.
Recruiting
From high-volume roles to key hires — we source, screen and close, and back every hire with a replacement guarantee.
How it works
Embedded in three steps.
Pricing
Simple, tiered, scales with your team
No vague advice. Concrete recommendations with severity ratings, root-cause hypotheses, and a phased fix roadmap.

Common questions
Questions founders ask
Do I need a full-time HR hire instead?
Not at this stage. Most founders don't need a full-time HR function until they're well past 30-40 employees. We give you that function on demand, at a fraction of the cost.
What's the difference between this and a PEO?
A PEO handles payroll and benefits administration. We handle the people side — onboarding, policy, performance, and recruiting — and can work alongside whatever PEO or payroll tool you already use.
Can I start with just recruiting, or just HRBP support?
Yes. Most engagements start with one need and expand as it proves out — same as our design partnerships.
