April Product Updates

This April, Remote makes your everyday easier with integrated US benefits and smarter workflow branching. With real time expense checks and advanced branching logic, Remote now handles even more, so your workflows can run hands free.

Manage US benefits without leaving Remote via Clasp

US employers on Remote Global Payroll can now offer health, dental, vision, and retirement benefits directly inside Remote. Powered by Clasp, the enrollment experience is built into the platform so employees manage their coverage in the same place they manage everything else. Bring your existing broker and your existing plans.

Remote plugs into what you already have. Employers get full visibility into enrollments, approvals, and contribution changes alongside payroll. Employees get a single guided experience from offer to enrollment, without ever leaving the platform.

Set up benefits administration for your US team.

Remove manual friction from Canadian payroll

Canadian payroll customers can now opt into Pre-Authorized Debit (PAD), allowing Remote to collect payroll funds automatically. This removes the need for manual payment initiation, eliminates surcharges, and ensures your Canadian team is paid reliably without manual intervention each month.

Make workflows easy with Branching paths

With new Branching paths, your workflows can now handle complex, non-linear logic within a single flow.

Remote’s automations now feature conditional routing, allowing your workflow to trigger specific actions, like IT requests or notifications based on unique hire criteria. Different situations, different actions, one intelligent workflow — allowing you to consolidate operations, reduce maintenance, and ensure your global policies are applied accurately without creating a massive administrative overhead.

Add branching logic to your workflow.

Gain full transparency with bulk uploader history

Our new centralized hub allows company admins to track and download the history of every bulk upload performed across the platform. You can see the status of every import at a glance, making it easy to audit changes and resolve errors without the guesswork.

Automate data syncs with scheduled SFTP exports

You can now use Remote’s Workflow Engine to schedule automated, one-directional data exports from our Reporting Engine to your external SFTP server.

Whether you are syncing workforce data to Lattice or other internal tools, you can set the frequency once and let the data flow. Every file is stored and auditable, giving you a clear record of what was sent and when without any manual intervention.

Set up your first scheduled SFTP export.

Eliminate expense surprises with upfront validation checks

We’ve introduced proactive validation checks that run at the moment an employee submits expenses. The system flags potential issues, like currency mismatches, missing documentation, or taxability warnings, in real time. By catching errors and getting them fixed before they reach the finance team, you reduce the time spent on manual rework and ensure your team members gets paid accurately and on time.

Learn how expense validation works.

Hope you’ve liked our April update. We’re continuing to build Remote into a unified platform that handles the nuances of global employment. Stay tuned for our May updates, and as always, you can follow our latest releases in the Changelog.
