The problem it solves

Setting up a new employee's Google Workspace account by hand means digging through admin settings and remembering to tell the team. It is easy to forget a step or leave IT and the rest of the team out of the loop.

Who it fits

Office managers or IT admins onboarding new employees.

How it works

  1. A form is submitted with a new hire's details
  2. The system generates a secure random password
  3. A new user account is created in Google Workspace with that information
  4. A message is posted to Slack confirming the new account is ready
