The company aggregates data from HRIS, ATS, and equity management platforms via automated integrations, serving as a compensation intelligence layer for HR and total rewards teams. The platform has expanded from benchmarking into compensation planning workflows, total rewards portals, and a developer API for HRIS writeback and analytics.
