For years, we hit the same wall everyone else did.

You automate a few steps. Then complexity wins. And your best people are back to doing work that should run itself. That's what we set out to fix - not for our customers first, but for ourselves.

I'm proud to introduce Akai by Deel.
Akai is an interconnected system of agents that learns your workflows, automates every step, and gets smarter with every run - auditably, on any system.

Today, 100% of Deel's operations teams, across Finance, Tax, Treasury, Benefits, and HR, run on Akai. The results stopped us in our tracks:
→ 100,000+ cases handled automatically every month
→ 8,000+ hours of payment processing - now background tasks
→ Reconciliation that took 20+ days - now done in minutes
→ 100% automation in areas we couldn't reach after years of coding
→ 91,000+ manual hours saved every single month

Now, every team is now building agents themselves. No developers. No IT tickets. Just the people who know the work, running it. That's the ceiling we broke.

Now we're opening it up. With built-in voice, transactions across any payment method, and the ability to process and analyse any document or dataset - out of the box.

Your first agents could be running by tomorrow! Get early access at https://t.co/mMBMmX4fMT

The most well-funded startups hire in the UK, Canada, Germany (high-cost markets!) because the talent race is fully global. Check out the full report!

Introducing: AnyTime Pay 💸

"Payroll is on the 30th - but give me what I've earned till today."

This changes everything for 500M+ employees living paycheck-to-paycheck.

Deel is at $1B+ ARR serving only 1.5M employees. AnyTime Pay is how we completely change the payroll industry and 10x our scale.

Imagine this: you're a retail employee at a Deel-powered company. You take your earned pay on the 10th for rent, again on the 20th for groceries, and again on the 30th.

Once you experience that freedom, waiting 30 days to get paid anywhere else will feel ancient.

73% of employees say a one-week delay in their paycheck would cause major stress. That's because life is built around payday.

So why hasn't anyone done this before?

Because employers need to remit the correct taxes for each employee and mid-month payments would require instant tax calculations - which has been impossible.

Here's how it works today: Companies send employee data to local payroll providers who manually calculate taxes based on hundreds of constantly changing laws (brackets, job type, country, gender, etc.). The provider calculates everything and sends it back. This entire process takes 10+ days.

The bottleneck is that employers have to wait 10 days to know how much tax to remit for each employee, making mid-month payments impossible.

It's such a huge problem that there's a $1T loan industry to help people cope with 30-day pay cycles. 40% interest credit cards, BNPL, payday loans - they exist because people can't access their own earned money.

Deel is changing that. We're building global payroll infrastructure across 160 countries - our own rails that calculate taxes in real time.

Gross-to-net happens instantly, taxes are computed in seconds, and employees can access their earned pay - anytime.

This might sound boring. But to 500M+ employees living paycheck-to-paycheck, this is life-changing.

Deel has raised $300M at a $17.3B valuation

We started about 6 years ago, struggling to even make $10K.

I've never shared this before because of how embarrassing our start was.

The story of how we went from $1K to $1B and the advice I'd give to my younger self:

[0xSam @eth_meee]

Closed #TOKEN2049Singapore with an intimate roundtable on how @deel is built for the Web3 future.

We unpacked:
1) Global hiring with compliance
2) Streamlined cross-border payroll
3) Building agile, borderless orgs

As Web3 matures, ops will be as key as innovation.

This week a Florida court ruled in Deel’s favor, dismissing the meritless claims from a lawsuit in January backed by a Rippling investor.

We’ll continue to focus on Deel’s growth & our customers while we move past distractions from lagging competitors
