SafelyYou

"We’ve been growing our team in Canada, and Borderless has made managing those new hires super easy. The platform is really straightforward, their support team is very helpful when we have questions, and everything just feels well thought out."
_{— Victor A., Senior Director of People Experiences at SafelyYou}

SafelyYou, an AI-powered healthtech company focused on fall detection and dementia care, had raised their Series C to fuel rapid growth and expand their product and engineering teams in Canada. But hiring in international markets, especially in complex regions like Québec. required a trusted Employer of Record that could manage compliance without slowing momentum.

With Borderless AI, SafelyYou was able to onboard several Canadian employees quickly and compliantly, without ever needing to navigate local legal requirements, entity setup, or payroll infrastructure on their own.

Impact TL;DR

• 25 employees hired across Canada, including Québec
  
• First time hiring internationally, with zero compliance issues
  
• Fast onboarding to support rapid post-fundraise expansion
  
• 100% payroll accuracy with timely, in-currency payments
  
• Seamless benefits setup and documentation for new hires
  
• Exceptional employee experience, with high satisfaction

Scaling into Canada, with no room for error

After raising a large Series C round, SafelyYou needed to scale its product and engineering teams fast, starting with top Canadian talent. But hiring across borders for the first time came with significant unknowns:

• No in-house experience with international employment law
• High regulatory complexity in Québec, with unique labor requirements
• Urgent timelines to get new hires onboarded post-funding
• Concerns about compliance, especially around payroll, benefits, and contracts

SafelyYou’s People team didn’t have time to become international HR experts. They needed a partner who already was; especially in one of Canada’s most compliance-heavy provinces.
