SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

International hiring planning fails at scale because legal, finance, and HR each own only parts of the decision, leaving gaps in risk assessment, budgeting, and a defensible path to offer and compliance.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cross-functional intake and framing: Collects country, roles, headcount timeline, existing entity/EOR state, and strategic context, then frames EOR vs. entity trade-offs for CFO/tax decision-makers without making the decision.
  • PE risk flagging and routing: Explicitly flags roles that may create permanent establishment risk and generates structured questions for tax counsel before any first hire.
  • Outside-counsel briefing request + persistent tracker: Produces a comprehensive briefing agenda tailored to the intake and creates a durable country expansion tracker with completable open items across tax, finance/payroll, HR/total rewards, and outside counsel.

Quick Start

Run the International Expansion workflow by starting an expansion kickoff for the target country (e.g., expansion-kickoff /expansion-update) and answer the intake questions about country, roles, headcount timeline, and current entity/EOR status.
