About Remote

Remote layers on AI-assisted workflows and tightens admin controls while expanding contractor coverage country-by-country.

Recent activity is a steady stream of admin-tooling and compliance plumbing: clearer roles/permissions visibility on Team Overview, consolidated UI permissions in the admin panel, Canadian contractor verification fields, and discount queueing for pricing plans. Geographic expansion continues with Contractor of Record now covering Saudi Arabia and Bulgaria. The notable departure from the pattern is an expense submission flow that uses 'Remote AI' to auto-fill from receipts.
