HR is everywhere and HRTech is changing the way we work. Before we move on, let’s define it a bit more:

What is HRTech?

HRTech, in the simplest terms, is like giving a high-tech upgrade to everything that makes a workplace tick. It’s about swapping out the old manual ways of handling people-stuff at work with smart, streamlined software and systems.

Imagine having a super-efficient digital assistant that can help find the right people to hire, keep track of pay and holidays, make sure everyone's growing in their roles, and even ensure people are happy and feeling good about work. That's HRTech for you.

It's not just about making things easier or faster (though it definitely does that); it's also about using data and insights to make better decisions. Like, figuring out if a team's vibe is off before it becomes a problem, or knowing exactly what skills your company will need in the future and starting to build them now.

HRtech startups are the behind-the-scenes heros in creating places where people actually want to work, helping businesses run smoother and everyone in them feel more fulfilled.

A Successful UK HRTech Example: Hibob

Hibob, or more casually known as Bob, is a shining star in the UK's HRTech scene.

Launched in 2015, Bob has quickly become a go-to platform for modern, dynamic companies that want to get the most out of their teams.

It's an all-in-one HR platform designed not just to manage the nitty-gritty HR tasks but also to foster culture and engagement within the workplace.

Bob's toolkit includes the usual suspects like onboarding, payroll, and benefits management, but it shines with its focus on creating a better work environment.

Features like customisable surveys to gauge employee sentiment, shoutouts for celebrating wins and milestones, and a directory that helps everyone feel connected, are what make it stand out.

Understanding HRtech Investors

HRtech funding involves angel investors, typically professionals with backgrounds in human resources, investing personal capital early on. HRtech venture capitalists (VCs) fund startups with validated business models set to scale significantly.
