3 reasons to choose Borderless AI over Skuad

Faster funding and streamlined payroll execution

Skuad's payroll timelines can vary by country and often rely on traditional processing cycles that slow things down. Borderless AI pulls funds from your bank account in as little as 20 minutes, then pays your team in 90+ currencies within 3–5 business days. That means your team gets paid on time, and your cash flow stays free for growth.

An AI-native platform

Skuad offers a tech-enabled HR platform but does not emphasize AI as a core differentiator. Borderless AI is an AI-native platform, with AI-generated employment contracts, real-time compliance guidance via HRGPT, and automated monitoring of country-specific requirements.

Expert support, on demand

Skuad offers platform-based customer support designed to scale across global employment needs. Borderless AI pairs technology with a dedicated in-house global team, delivering hands-on support from onboarding through payroll and ongoing compliance.
