The problem it solves

Every time someone joins your team, you or IT has to remember to go into Salesforce and manually grant the right access. Forgetting this step means new hires are stuck waiting, or worse, given the wrong level of access.

Who it fits

Companies using Salesforce that need consistent, error-free access setup for new users.

How it works

  1. A new user is created in Salesforce
  2. The system checks the user's profile
  3. If the profile matches, the right permission set is assigned automatically
  4. The user is left with the correct access, ready to work
What you get

New hires with the exact right access

You get every new Salesforce user set up with the correct permissions automatically, based on their profile, from day one.

What you get

A new Salesforce user with the correct permission set already assigned.

What you need

A Salesforce account with API access.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
