Otta's take

Xav Kearney

CTO of Otta

Human resources work is demanding and difficult, not least because few tools exist to cover large swathes of the job, and what is out there tends to be clunky and difficult to integrate with other company systems. Humaans exists to rectify this with a platform that allows companies to build a customised HR tech stack, uniting all of a company's people systems in a single, easy-to-use package.

As HR became more complex due to the move to hybrid and remote ways of work, HR tech grew into a major focus of investment. Humaans is one among a number of startups in this space which includes the likes of Darwinbox, BambooHR and Personio. But Humaans stands out with the flexibility of its approach, allowing its customers to develop their own HR workflows without constraining them with a one size fits all product.

Humaans has raised significant capital, most recently in a Series A round led by Lachy Groom with participation from senior Shopify and Slack investors. This is being used to develop the product and onboard new talent, as well as continue its expansion within the EU. With a solid product and a growing customer base which includes the likes of Pleo, Fidel API and Birdie, Humaans is well poised for future success.
