Your day should not start with checking, chasing and searching.

Payroll deadlines, onboarding tasks, approvals, policies and employee requests rarely live in the same place. Today pulls the operational signals together and orders them by what needs attention now.

What needs you

See approvals, judgement calls, blockers and deadline-sensitive work that require a person.

What PaperThread handled

See the supported answers, nudges and low-risk work that already moved forward.

What could become a problem

Surface missing data, overdue actions and approaching deadlines while there is still time to act.

Know what needs attention before it becomes a problem.

Today brings urgent requests, blockers and risks into view. For payroll cut-off, PaperThread identifies missing information, explains the impact and keeps the resolution moving.

Two records are missing payroll-critical details.

Payroll closes Thursday 17:00. Two employee records cannot be processed as they stand.

Know what needs you first.

See approvals, judgement calls, blockers and deadlines in priority order, without manually reconciling the HRIS, payroll, ATS, documents and workplace messages.

Automation where it is safe.
Control where it matters.

PaperThread is designed to move routine work forward without hiding how a decision was made or removing the people who need to remain in control.

Source-backed context

See the policies, records and connected systems behind each priority and recommendation.

Approval-aware actions

Sensitive, judgement-heavy or payroll-impacting actions wait for the right person to approve them.

Human fallback

When a permission or API blocks the final action, PaperThread creates a clear human step and keeps the case visible.

One clear Thread

Every source check, decision, approval, action and outcome remains connected to the case.

One simple front door for a complex people stack.

Today shows what needs attention. Ask helps you understand and start work. Thread keeps the full source and action history.

Common questions about Today.

Everything you need to understand how PaperThread works, where it fits, and how it connects with the tools your People team already uses.

Today shows the PeopleOps work that needs attention now, what PaperThread has already handled, who or what is blocking progress, and the source context behind each item.

Stop chasing work
between systems.

Connect your people stack and let PaperThread keep the work moving.
