Deel simplifies payroll for remote workers

Deel is an AI platform that simplifies payroll for remote workers by enabling companies to legally hire employees worldwide, create contracts in minutes, and pay them in their preferred currency. The company's COO Dan Westgarth explains that managing a global workforce can be challenging due to the need for multiple payroll platforms, bank accounts, and lawyers. Deel sought a solution to authenticate foreign bank accounts but found building this functionality on its own or using local partners too cumbersome. Ultimately, they turned to Plaid for assistance.
