Onboarding Workflow Automation

Overview

What we deliver

We build onboarding flows that collect information, provision access, and guide new clients or hires through a consistent path to value.

We design onboarding workflows that turn the first weeks with a client or new hire into a repeatable, measurable process. For client onboarding we automate kickoff intake, document collection, access provisioning, project setup, and welcome communications. For employee onboarding we connect HR, IT, payroll, and learning systems so new hires get accounts, equipment, and training without manual coordination. Each step is tied to clear owners, deadlines, and escalation rules so nothing stalls. We also build progress dashboards so managers see where each onboarding stands and where it is stuck. The workflows pull from CRM, ATS, or HRIS records and trigger downstream actions in project tools, knowledge bases, and email. Our deliverables include configured tools, written playbooks, and training. The outcome is faster time to first value, less drop off in the early weeks, and a cleaner handoff between sales, delivery, or recruiting and the team that owns the relationship.

Client stories

What clients say

"

Two weeks before our seed round we still did not have a defensible model. Their fractional CFO rebuilt our three-statement forecast, pressure-tested the assumptions, and walked me through every line before the partner meeting. We closed 1.4M on the terms we wanted. The investor specifically called out how clean the financials looked compared to the last five decks she had seen.

We had been prototyping an AI quoting agent for nine months and could not get it past demo quality. They came in, scoped a real eval set, swapped our retrieval layer, and added guardrails for the edge cases that kept burning us. Went live in seven weeks. It now handles 41 percent of inbound quote requests without a human touching them.
