Introduction

Welcome to Symmetrical Rails

Symmetrical Rails is a powerful REST API that gives any developer access to world-class, international payroll infrastructure that can be embedded directly into any software. We enable you to run payroll for your clients, read payroll data, access payroll cashflows but also to programatically hire people, all in a few lines of code. Single integration covers multiple geographies.

Symmetrical Rails API is bundled with Symmetrical Objects - microservice-like features that can be copy-pasted into your solution to speed up go-to-market.

Core components of our API:
• Payroll - payroll service management, incl. build-to-gross, gross-to-net calculations
• Hire - High volume hiring, applicants and hire process management
• People - HRIS Lite, employee data management
• Money - Earned Wage Access
