HR for Startups

Lightweight HR solutions for growing teams

The Startups Challenge

Hr needs vary significantly based on your business context. Startups have unique requirements that generic solutions don't always address.

Build, Vibe, or Buy?

When to Build

Building custom hr makes sense for startups when you have proprietary processes that no off-the-shelf tool supports. Expect 3-6 months of development.

When to Vibe Code

Vibe coding (AI-assisted development) is ideal for startups who need rapid customization. With tools like Cursor and Claude, you can build tailored solutions in weeks instead of months.

When to Buy

Buying established hr tools makes sense when you're growing fast and need proven reliability. The subscription cost is usually worth the time saved.

Our Take for Startups

Most startups should start with vibe coding for customization, then migrate to a bought solution as they scale. The flexibility is worth it early on.
