Google AI Mode Our verdict
A small US-domestic payroll and HR services provider based in Miamisburg, Ohio (nearly 1,000 customers across 40 states). It runs US employee payroll, tax filing, time & attendance, hiring/onboarding and HR support — but markets no Employer of Record, no contractor-of-record and no multi-country payroll, so it is a weak fit for a global EOR/contractor directory.
- Standout feature
- Hands-on, regionally-focused payroll and HR support for US small and mid-sized businesses, including HR On-Demand access to an HR professional.
- Biggest limitation
- No global reach: US-domestic payroll only, with no EOR, no contractor-of-record and no published international coverage or compliance certifications.
