About Rippling

------------------



Rippling gives businesses one place to run HR, IT, and Finance. It brings together all of the workforce systems that are normally scattered across a company, like payroll, expenses, benefits, and computers. For the first time ever, you can manage and automate every part of the employee lifecycle in a single system.



Take onboarding, for example. With Rippling, you can hire a new employee anywhere in the world and set up their payroll, corporate card, computer, benefits, and even third-party apps like Slack and Microsoft 365--all within 90 seconds.



Based in San Francisco, CA, Rippling has raised $1.4B+ from the world's top investors--including Kleiner Perkins, Founders Fund, Sequoia, Greenoaks, and Bedrock--and was named one of America's best startup employers by Forbes.
