Folks
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.

Cloverleaf
Cloverleaf is the only AI coaching platform that combines validated behavioral assessments, HR system data, and calendar context to deliver coaching proactively — right inside Slack, Microsoft Teams, Workday, and email. With support for DISC, CliftonStrengths, Insights Discovery, and other validated assessments on a single platform, Cloverleaf helps organizations get more value from their assessment investments. Customers save an average of 32% on assessment spend while unlocking continuous coaching powered by that data.
What makes Cloverleaf different is how coaching is proactively delivered. It's personalized to the individual, the people they're meeting with, and the work happening that day. Ahead of a performance conversation, a team standup, or a 1:1 with a new direct report, relevant coaching shows up automatically. No one has to open a separate app or figure out what to search for.
HR and talent leaders can map coaching to their organization's own competency models and leadership expectations. When someone gets promoted, changes teams, or moves into a management role for the first time, coaching activates through HRIS integration — covering skills like delegation, giving feedback, and navigating new team dynamics from the start.
The platform addresses core talent development needs: building manager capability, reinforcing performance review outcomes, preparing leaders during role transitions, and sustaining the impact of formal development programs between cohorts and workshops. Coaching happens in the flow of work so that skills actually show up in daily behavior.
HR and talent leaders can track coaching engagement, monitor which capabilities are being reinforced, and identify development trends across teams and departments.
Cloverleaf holds SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and GDPR-aligned certifications. More than 45,000 teams rely on it today, with 86% reporting stronger team performance and 95% gaining actionable new learnings.
