We're not employed by any PEO. Our job is to find the best fit for you, not the highest commission. Our fee comes from the PEO you choose — at no markup to your rate.
We've evaluated every major PEO operating in Connecticut — pricing structures, HR tech, benefits quality, implementation support, and contract terms.
Because we place multiple clients per year, we carry pricing leverage with every PEO we work with. Clients routinely save 10–20% versus going direct.
Evaluating PEOs is a 60–80 hour process if you do it yourself. We compress that into a single conversation and a structured comparison document.
Connecticut has specific employment law requirements that vary from federal baseline. We match you with PEOs that have proven Connecticut compliance infrastructure.
We run the comparison, present your options, and let you decide. There's no pressure, no minimum commitment, and nothing to pay if you choose not to move forward.
Not every PEO has the same depth of Connecticut compliance infrastructure. These are the specific requirements we vet for.

Send it over. We’ll tell you in 48 hours what you’re actually paying for — and where you can renegotiate.
Nothing. PEO brokers are compensated directly by the PEO you ultimately choose, as a standard part of their channel partner program. This doesn't increase your rate — we negotiate on your behalf, and clients typically save 10–20% versus going direct.
Most PEOs target companies between 10 and 500 employees. The sweet spot where PEO economics are most compelling is usually 25–150 employees — large enough to benefit from pooled buying power on benefits and workers' comp, small enough that in-house HR infrastructure isn't yet cost-effective.
Implementation typically takes 4–8 weeks from signed contract to live payroll. We manage the transition timeline and coordinate between you and the PEO to make sure the cutover is clean.
Yes. Switching PEOs is one of the most common reasons businesses come to us. We review your current contract for termination clauses, compare your current rates against the market, and manage the transition so there's no payroll disruption.
