Employee Onboarding Checklist Builder with Integration Provisioning for HR Teams
HR teams at companies with 50-200 employees manage onboarding checklists in Google Docs or Notion, manually tracking laptop provisioning, software access, training modules, and first-week schedules. The opportunity is a checklist builder with integration provisioning (auto-create Slack, GitHub, Google Workspace accounts).
Problem Statement
An HR coordinator at a 120-person company onboards 8 new hires per month. For each hire, they follow a 35-item checklist in Google Docs: create Okta account, add to Google Workspace, invite to relevant Slack channels, assign Lessonly training modules, order a laptop, set up a desk/home office stipend, schedule orientation meetings, and assign a buddy. Each onboarding takes 3-4 hours of manual coordination across HR, IT, and the hiring manager. Half the items are 'send a Slack message to IT asking them to...' which is just manual API calls with extra steps.
The Idea
An employee onboarding checklist builder that auto-triggers IT provisioning (Okta, Google Workspace, Slack) and training assignments when a new hire's start date arrives — replacing manual HR checklists with automated workflows.
Why Now
Remote and hybrid work made onboarding harder. New hires need access to 10-15 tools before day one. HRIS systems (BambooHR, Gusto) manage employee records but do not automate tool provisioning or task workflows.
