Simpler is a cloud-based tool that digitizes new-hire paperwork and manages employee onboarding workflows. Customers send their existing onboarding packets to Simpler, which digitizes forms and lets HR admins create new hires, select packet types, and send employees a portal link. Employees review and sign documents via an e-signature feature, submit them for approval, and completed documents can be routed to payroll and benefits providers or exported as PDFs. HR administrators can track progress and see missing fields or areas requiring action. The company is in private beta and pricing is still being determined. Founders named in the article are Ian Spivey (formerly of TinyCo), Ivan Kim, and Bo Shi. Simpler positions itself as addressing a specific part of the multi-billion-dollar human capital management market and recently announced $1.25 million in funding.
