About Central

What is Central?

Central is the only payroll & benefits platform that handles all the government bullshit automatically.

While traditional payroll providers force you to manage every state registration & HR task, Central actually does it all - saving you 60+ hours and thousands in fines.

Why Central?

We’re on a mission to eliminate all business bullshit

Building a company is still way too hard. Founders still have to register in multiple states to run payroll, set up workers' compensation, pay various payroll-related taxes, deal with intimidating government mail, update addresses across state filings, and troubleshoot with insurance companies.

Imagine a world where ambitious founders have more time to solve the world's most difficult problems—from preventing medical mistakes in hospitals to building next-generation night vision to curing brain cancer. That's what founders on Central are doing.

Currently, hundreds of companies run on Central, and we're growing rapidly. We've raised a huge seed/A from YC and some of the best investors in the world (not announced yet, happy to share in private).

As a founding member, you'll have a seat at the table and help Central scale to serve thousands of companies.
