This sounds great. How is it different from https://www.withpanther.com/ and https://www.omnipresent.com/?

@sugarsteroni Remote fully owns local legal entities in all our covered countries [unlike other competitors], and a proprietary network of in-country payroll providers, accountants, labor law attorneys and HR specialists. No intermediaries means more transparency, flexibility, speed, and cost efficiency for our customers. You can read more here: https://remote.com/blog/owned-en...

@nicolasegosum You can learn more about what we offer for contractors/freelancers here: https://remote.com/pricing
@jobvo On the pricing page it is written "Only pay payment processing fees". What fees are you referring to? We currently play with Trasferwise to minimize treansfer fees. Do you connect with TW?
@nicolasegosum Depending on the country, we use TW or something more affordable. So yes, it's in that range or below.
Congratulations on the launch ?makers
Remote could be solving the need gap - 'Creating a team with only remote employees' posted on my problem validation platform - https://needgap.com/problems/38-... .
You're welcomed to explain how Remote solves their problem, So those who need Remote can find it easily.
I would like to start using your product, but your onboarding process seems dated to me: arranging a call to get access to the system? No, thanks
@masha_e_polikarp: You're right. We're working hard to improve this and move toward full self-enrollment. There's a lot of variation in what companies need, and starting with a conversation helps Remote make sure we can help before we start onboarding.
You are 100% right that we need a self-enrollment process, and the team's hard at work on it now. Super grateful for the feedback, I'll pass it to the team. 🙇
Love the team, love the product, and love that you're building your own remote culture in public for others to learn from.
Figuring out compliance, payroll and taxes can be burdensome for remote companies. Many choose to hire workers as "contractors", pushing the headaches to the worker and lower the burden on the company.
Having workers in multiple US states can also be a headache.
Thumbs up to any company that helps solve this problem! :)
Great idea! I have decently hired a few people around the world and can definitely relate to this pain point. Thanks for sharing.
Super cool product and idea. Great to see how working remote becomes more and more achievable
I've always though of this as "Stripe for remote hiring". I don't know why though, maybe because:
💳 Stripe does the hard work of managing payments behind the scenes and you'll get a shiny dashboard with all that you need.
🌎 Remote does the hard work of managing your remote team's payroll behind the scenes and you'll get a shiny dashboard with all that you need.
This is definitely a much needed product for *our new remote world* – lets you hire a global team without really thinking about the legal aspects of it.
