Most HR software is built for the US market and adapted for Canada as an afterthought — missing native payroll compliance, storing data on American servers, and offering no French-language support. Folks is different. A Canadian-owned platform designed from day one for the way Canadian businesses actually run.
Folks handles CRA-compliant payroll natively: automatic T4 and RL-1 generation, ROE filing to Service Canada, CPP/QPP/CPP2 and EI deductions, multi-province tax calculations, WSIB/WCB, Ontario EHT, and direct deposit — no third-party payroll provider needed. The platform also covers HRIS, applicant tracking with AI-powered candidate matching and integrations with Indeed, LinkedIn, Jobillico, and Talent.com, plus performance management with 360° evaluations.
SOC 2 Type 2 certified, with all data hosted exclusively in Canada — governed by PIPEDA and provincial privacy laws, not the US CLOUD Act. Fully bilingual in English and French. Plans start at $6/employee/month. 1,200+ Canadian SMBs across manufacturing, construction, healthcare, non-profit, and professional services already made the switch.

Humanly is the AI hiring platform for hourly, frontline, and high-volume recruiting teams.
Most frontline hiring teams don't struggle with a lack of applicants — they struggle with speed, staffing continuity, and keeping qualified candidates engaged long enough to hire them. Humanly solves that by automating candidate engagement, screening, scheduling, and interviewing across chat, phone, and video — so a candidate who applies at 9pm is on your calendar by morning.
The platform combines an AI Recruiter, AI Interviewer, Talent CRM, and ATS into a single connected hiring system designed to keep a continuous flow of ready-to-work candidates moving through the funnel. Recruiting teams can engage every applicant, conduct structured interviews at scale, and reduce manual work while maintaining fast, consistent hiring operations.
Humanly engages more than 250,000 candidates each month and has conducted over five million interviews. Customers report up to 8× faster time-to-hire, 20+ hours saved per recruiter each week, and candidate experience scores averaging 4.8 out of 5.
Key capabilities include AI candidate engagement across chat, SMS, voice, and video; structured AI screening and interviewing with objective scoring; automated scheduling across calendars and hiring events; Talent CRM for sourcing, rediscovery, and re-engagement; and centralized analytics for pipeline health and compliance.
Humanly integrates with leading ATS systems and is designed with fairness and transparency in mind, working with external experts to audit and mitigate bias.
Purpose-built for healthcare, hospitality, retail, logistics, and other industries where staffing continuity isn't optional.
