Thera (YC S22)

I'm excited to announce Thera's oversubscribed $4M seed round with participation from Y Combinator, Amino Capital, Zillionize, 10x Founders, and House Capital. Notable angels in the round include Oliver Jung, Chris Bakke, Andrew Yeung, Akash Magoon, Bobby Matson, and many more. I'm incredibly proud of what we've been able to accomplish in such a short period of time. There are few things I can think of that are more meaningful than providing people their livelihoods. Today, hundreds of businesses and thousands of workers around the world rely on us for payroll. The best part is, we're just getting started. It takes a village to build a startup. I'd be remiss not to mention the incredible team, early customers, and day-one supporters who have brought us this far. We wouldn't be here without your unwavering support. To whom much is given, much is to be expected. Stay tuned. Coverage by Venture Beat: https://lnkd.in/eg-fSPHa

We’ve been in the trenches with you. After countless meetings with founders, we’ve begun to see a pattern in global hiring pitfalls that trip up even the smartest team. We get it – this stuff is complex, but cracking the code on international hiring? It’s the cheat code for your startup’s growth. Here’s a list of the most common mistakes we’ve seen, so you can see if you’re making them too: 1. Employee or contractor? Get this right: misclassifying your international team members can lead to serious legal issues. 2. Ignoring local labour laws: Make sure you know the minimum wage requirements and termination rules. 3. Not knowing local payroll requirements: Do you know how much tax you need to be withholding? What info are you legally required to mention on payslips? Remember, the global talent pool is our oyster. Don’t let rookie mistakes hold you back from building the next unicorn.

Nothing feels worse than forgetting someone on payday. Still handling payroll manually in 2024? Let's talk.

In the next 6 weeks, our team at Linked Revenue will double. We are going from 6 to 12 people. One of the things that has been a huge time saver for me was partnering with a payroll company that allows me to focus more on the business and less on the admin work. When I started expanding my team, the first thing I did was sign up for Thera (YC S22), a global payroll and HR platform that's SMB-friendly. It was one of the best decisions I made. I spend less than a few minutes every month on payroll admin. They handle all internal contracts and payments. What I love: - They support both US and global payroll and contractor management - I can reach their team quickly via email - Payments are instant and FX is cheap for international talent They've been a game-changer for me.
