How AI is used
Employment Hero, which acquired Humi in 2025, provides a suite of tools for managing the employee lifecycle. The platform supports administrative tasks such as payroll processing, time and attendance tracking, and benefits management, alongside a recruitment system.
It is designed for small to mid-market companies operating in Canada. For businesses with offices in Quebec or those requiring French language support, the company provides Humi by Employment Hero to support compliance with regional regulations.
Beyond software, the platform includes HeroForce, a managed service that acts as an Employer of Record, which may help businesses hire talent in over 180 countries without setting up new legal entities.
