Remote is an employer-of-record and payroll platform that lets companies hire, pay and manage employees and contractors in other countries without setting up local entities. The site presents it as hiring and payroll with local compliance expertise, aimed at organisations that employ people across borders. The service is delivered as an online platform.
The company is Remote Technology, Inc., a US company. The site does not state its headquarters, and third-party directories list San Francisco. Remote says it stores its data in Ireland, so personal data is held under EU data protection rules, and it relies on standard contractual clauses or the EU-US Data Privacy Framework for transfers outside the EU. It offers a data processing addendum to clients. As a US-based provider it is subject to US legal access rules such as the CLOUD Act, so a European organisation should review the sub-processor list. The service is not open source.
