Rippling

Rippling gives businesses one place to run HR, IT and Finance. By unifying payroll, expenses, benefits, devices and third-party apps in a single, HMRC-approved system, Rippling lets you automate every part of the employee lifecycle and surface real-time insights on headcount, turnover and cost—all while keeping compliance airtight.

Take onboarding, for example. You can hire an employee anywhere in the world, choose UK-compliant documents, and set up their payroll, laptop, benefits and apps —all within 90 seconds. Payroll then runs in minutes, not days, freeing teams to focus on priorities rather than admin.

Headquartered in San Francisco and trusted by UK innovators such as Decathlon, SurrealDB and Stability.ai, Rippling has raised $1.8+ billion from investors including Sequoia, Kleiner Perkins, Baillie Gifford and Y Combinator. Most recently in May 2025, it closed a $450 million Series G financing, valuing the company at $16.8 billion.
