FAQ

Questions, answered.

Do I need to be an HR expert to use this?
That's the whole point. Human Solutions+ is built for anyone running HR at a small company — whether that's an owner wearing the HR hat or a seasoned HR pro who wants less busywork. The routine work runs itself, and the guidance is there whenever you want a second opinion.
Do you store Social Security numbers?
No. We never store Social Security numbers or tax IDs. We only track that forms like the I-9 and W-4 are complete, not the sensitive documents themselves — so please don't upload anything containing full SSNs.
Is there a free trial? How does billing work?
Yes — every plan starts with a 14-day free trial. You add a card to begin, but you won't be charged until the trial ends, and you can cancel anytime before then. No sales call, no demo scheduled two weeks out — you sign up and you're running the same day.
How much does it cost?
There are three simple plans: Essentials $199/mo (up to 50 employees), Growth $299/mo (up to 100 employees, with more AI drafting, Toby, and surveys plus turnover and diversity reports), and Insights $599/mo (up to 150 employees, adds advisory alerts, trends, and cost-and-planning tools).
What's the difference between the plans?
Think of it as tool → assistant → advisor. The whole platform ships on every plan; the tiers differ in what the AI does with your data. Essentials does the core HR work. Growth adds more listening and measuring — bigger AI limits, more surveys, and turnover and diversity reports. Insights helps you understand and optimize, with proactive advisory alerts, trend explanations, and cost-and-planning tools.
Can I import my current team?
Yes. Use bulk import to bring your whole team in from a spreadsheet in minutes, or add people one at a time. Assign departments and managers and your org chart builds itself.
Is my data secure?
Security is the baseline, not a feature. Every company's data is fully isolated from every other company's, sensitive information is handled with care, and — as above — we never store SSNs.
What is Ask Toby?
Toby is your built-in AI HR advisor, included on every plan (with higher monthly limits as you move up). Ask it the questions you'd normally be nervous to Google — terminations, leave, complaints, classification — and get clear, practical guidance in plain English that points you toward compliance and shows you where to check. Toby isn't a lawyer, but it's a great first call.
Do you offer real, human HR help?
No — and we're upfront about that. Human Solutions+ is fully self-serve software, built on real HR expertise. For the hard moments you get Toby, an AI advisor that explains things in plain English and points you in the right direction, any time. It's the HR know-how, built into the product.
Do you handle payroll?
No. Payroll pays your people — Human Solutions+ handles everything around them: records, documents, time off, onboarding, and guidance for the tricky moments. It runs alongside your payroll, not instead of it.
What size business is this built for?
Small businesses without a dedicated HR person — typically teams of 5 to 150. Essentials fits up to 50, Growth up to 100, and Insights up to 150. If you're too small to justify an HR hire but big enough that the people stuff matters, this is for you.
How do I cancel?
Start the request from Account settings and we'll take care of it. No hoops, no retention gauntlet — canceling should be as painless as signing up.
