For venture-backed companies
When the board asks for headcount, have one answer.
We implement Rippling or HiBob, then run the people operations behind it, so every number comes from one record.
For VC- and PE-backed companies and established firms, 25 to 250 people.

Where it starts
The moments venture-backed teams call us.
First Head of People
“Our first Head of People inherited a PEO and a spreadsheet.”
The PEO holds payroll and benefits, the spreadsheet holds headcount, and onboarding lives in someone’s inbox.
PEO renewal
“The PEO renewal came in, and the math stopped working.”
PEO pricing scales with headcount whether or not the service does. Somewhere between 60 and 90 people, the renewal stops looking reasonable.
New states
“We were in two states. Now we’re in six.”
Remote hires add a state at a time, and each one brings registrations, tax accounts and notices of its own.
Build, move and run
One team for the system, the move off your PEO and the daily work.
- Build
HRIS implementation
Rippling or HiBob, set up around your teams, states, approvals and permissions. - Move
PEO exit

Managed people ops
Onboarding, requests, records, payroll prep and a monthly report for the board.
Integrations we have built: Greenhouse, Ashby, Carta, Brex, Ramp, QuickBooks, NetSuite and Deel.
People paid abroad, as contractors or through an EOR, are in scope and quoted with your setup.

What venture-backed clients say
“Compliance was the thing I worried about most. People Street optimized our HRIS and gave us a custom dashboard that turned multi-state compliance into something I just don’t think about anymore.”
Ian BrodieCEO, Levanta“People Street didn’t just run our people ops. They surfaced compliance gaps we hadn’t even considered and closed them before they became problems. They keep us a step ahead.”
Tegan JohnsonDirector of Operations, Mindstate Design Labs“People Street set up our HR system and helped us through the very painful process of registering in several states where we have remote employees. A great ally as we grow.”
Alicia LawlessChief of Staff, Hyer Boots
Questions venture-backed teams ask before the call
When should we leave our PEO?
Usually when the renewal stops matching the service, often between 60 and 90 people, or when diligence asks who the employer of record is. We plan exits from Justworks and TriNet backward from your notice date.
We have people in three countries. Is that in scope?
Yes. People abroad, as contractors or through an EOR, are in scope, and that work is quoted in writing with the rest of your setup.
How does pricing work?
By headcount, and our fee is the same on Rippling or HiBob. Builds are a fixed fee agreed in writing, and monthly plans step with headcount.
What about the AI in Rippling and HiBob?
Both now ship assistants that inherit your permissions, so they are only as safe as the access behind them. We design the permission model first, then switch features on one at a time.
One answer, before the board asks.
Bring your setup, your states and your PEO contract. In 20 minutes you’ll know what you need and whether we fit.
