The problem it solves

Onboarding a new hire often means someone on your team manually tracking who has finished which paperwork or task. It's easy for steps to get missed or forgotten when everything is tracked by hand.

Who it fits

Small businesses and HR teams who want a consistent onboarding process for every new hire.

How it works

  1. A new hire is added to the onboarding list
  2. The system works through their onboarding tasks one at a time
  3. Each task's status is checked before moving to the next step
  4. The new hire's record is updated as each step is completed
What you get

Onboarding steps tracked for every hire

Every new hire gets guided through their onboarding tasks automatically, one step at a time.

What you get

An up-to-date record showing exactly where each new hire stands in onboarding.

What you need

A system for tracking employee records, such as a spreadsheet or HR tool.

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.
