File everything in a cabinet nobody checks
Miss forms and scramble on day one

Send to New Hires
Share a link or send an invite. New hires complete everything from their phone or laptop before day one. No printing, no scanning.
Route and Approve
Submissions go to the right people. HR reviews tax docs. IT gets the laptop request. Managers see the welcome checklist. All automatic.
