Our take
Currently, payroll systems can’t record each employee’s daily ‘state of work’ activity meaning HR teams have to do the work manually. Polish-founded Symmetrical.ai is a payroll tech provider serving international clients around the globe.
Through its flexible API-first technology, the company supports unparalleled automation of payroll processes, which allows clients to scale and optimise overall payroll costs. Proof of its competency is evident as across nine months over 2021 into 2022, Symmetrical.ai multiplied revenues by 23x.
Following recent series A funding, the company has invested into supporting expansion into new European markets and the US market, enabling it to offer services to more diverse franchises and enterprise clients.
