Remote

Remote is a global HR and payroll platform for distributed teams, handling international payroll, benefits, taxes, and compliance for employees and contractors. Unlike some competitors, Remote owns its own legal entities in each country it operates in rather than using third-party partners.

Accounting firms advising clients with international workforces use Remote to handle local tax withholdings, statutory benefits, and employment regulations across jurisdictions. The platform provides consolidated reporting and integrates with QuickBooks, NetSuite, Xero, and other accounting software for journal entry export.

Remote competes directly with Deel in the global payroll space. It is best suited for firms serving clients that hire employees or contractors internationally and need compliant payroll without establishing foreign subsidiaries. The owned-entity model may appeal to firms and clients that prefer a more direct employment relationship than third-party intermediaries provide.
