Overview
Sol builds an AI-native core HR platform designed to fully replace traditional HRIS systems. It works by being agentic and self-maintaining, answering user questions directly instead of creating support tickets, and giving leaders a context-rich view of how work happens in a dynamic workforce. Founded by HR-tech veterans from Workday and other enterprise software leaders, it differentiates itself by reducing reliance on external consultants and internal IT for system management, offering an enterprise-grade foundation from the ground up. Its goal is to become the live, intelligent backbone for workforce management in growing enterprises.
