Payroll Software
Payroll software that's already connected.
Otto HR runs payroll inside the same platform as your hiring, onboarding, and time off — so approved hours and leave flow into each pay run instead of living in a separate spreadsheet.

Why Otto
Payroll that lives where your people data already is.
Connected to time off
Approved leave and balances already live in Otto, so they're reflected in payroll without a manual export.
One employee record
Compensation, role, and status come from the same employee profile you use for everything else — no duplicate data entry.
Hiring to paid
A new hire flows from offer to onboarding to payroll in one system, so the first pay run isn't a scramble.
How it works
From hours worked to a finished pay run.
Hours and time off, already in
Approved time off and balances are part of Otto, so each pay period starts with the data already in place. No re-keying from another app.
