Remote

Remote is a global HR platform that lets companies hire, pay, and manage employees and contractors around the world without setting up their own foreign entities. Its core is Employer of Record (EOR) services: Remote legally employs your workers in countries where you have no entity, handling local contracts, payroll, taxes, benefits, and compliance, so you can build a distributed team quickly and compliantly. It also covers compliant contractor management, global payroll for your own entities, and core HR.

A point Remote emphasizes is that it owns its local legal entities in the countries it operates (rather than relying on third parties) and provides strong intellectual-property and invention-rights protection — important for companies hiring engineers and creators abroad. Around the core, it offers benefits administration, a free HR layer for managing your team, immigration support, and integrations. Remote positions itself as a compliance-first, transparent alternative in the global-employment space alongside rivals like Deel.

Remote suits startups and enterprises building international, remote-first teams that want compliant EOR hiring, contractor payments, and global payroll with owned entities and IP protection. Pricing is per worker by service — EOR, contractor management, and global payroll each carry different per-person rates — with a free HR tier for managing your team.
