Ask HN: Good Employee Onboarding Tax Form Automation Software Options?

2 points by bsbechtel ↗ HN
Our business is looking for a good solution to automate our employee on-boarding paperwork (forms w-4, i-9, etc). I know Zenefits offers a free option, and many start up employers use DocuSign or HelloSign, or their API, to take care of this administrative work electronically. I was wondering if there are other options available that I'm not aware of. Each of these choices gets me ~80% of what I need, but I feel like there must be something better. I am curious what others are doing. To share a little more about our use case: we hire 50-100 employees temporarily during the summer, so the administrative load can get quite high. I'd also, if possible, like to integrate everything with our software so new hires only have to log in to one new system before starting work. Many thanks!

What is the missing 20%? It sounds like you want a complete API type solution, correct?
Yeah, but the pricing for the API with HelloSign and DocuSign is a bit steep, given their pricing for using their service. $30/month for unlimited document sends vs $2/API call (1 document send) via the API.
Take a look at tasytt.com .. we're a startup so we'll work with you but we're tackling this problem completely different than most. We take care of the forms and much more. Schedule a demo and tell them you spoke with Chris on HackerNews
