  • Coverage across major US gig and W-2 platforms

Cons

  • Pricing unclear without sales engagement
  • US payroll coverage uneven for smaller employers
  • Connector breakage requires ongoing reconciliation
Best for: US lenders and fintechs needing live income and employment data Not for: Teams outside US or needing batch file-based payroll access
