What the community is saying — both sides
Whoever controls payroll, devices, permissions and apps dictates what AI agents can and can’t do — that ownership becomes a governance layer, not just an HR product.
That intersection makes it easier to embed agent-driven workflows across the org rather than in isolated silos.
Companies that are large enough to have real AI use cases but small enough to move quickly are rare — Rippling sits in that window.
Real compounding value comes from agents that take actions inside systems and processes, not from add-on productivity features.
Customers switching to a single platform for TMS, HR, EOR and payroll see AI leverage faster because the data and workflows are already unified.

this is a great example of how the best are using AI as a force multiplier for moving toward their vision faster. @parkerconrad's compound startup and employee graph vision just got radically multiplied in value! it's why we picked @rippling even as an SME, switching to one pl
Most SaaS leaders treat AI as an add-on productivity tool. Rippling’s position at the intersection of payroll, HR, and finance turns it into the natural control plane for organizational agents before the category even defines itself.
AI that runs your payroll. One hallucination. 5,000 employees unpaid. Bold move.
May be. But their existing product is a jack of all trades and master of none. Their EOR product is unusable. We literally had to decommission it. Basic stuff didn’t work in all states.
Hi Paul, have you ever used the Rippling product? I dont think they will survive. The age of shitty software is over
