Smart Charge America

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.

David Laderberg, VP of Sales

Remote

Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism — I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.

Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder

SweepBright

Zapier helps us close far above 50% more deals than we would without it. It is a key element of our overall strategy and, therefore, of our sales pitch.

Raphael Bochner, Founder and CIO

Digioh

Zapier gives us unlimited flexibility and creativity. With Zapier, you're like an artist with a blank canvas. I don't know what we'd do without it.

Rishi Shah, CEO and Co-Founder

Otter.ai

We don't just want to patch holes; we want to build scalable, future-proof systems. Zapier is helping us do that.

Allen Lai, Head of Customer Experience

Superhuman

We've been able to scale our operations while staying lean. Zapier lets us do more without needing more people.

Jacob Sirrs, Marketing Operations Specialist

Transform your HR ops with Zapier

Bring more structure to HR operations with Zapier. Automate employee requests, streamline HR reporting, and improve internal communications—and that’s just the start.

Employee requests

Keep HR requests moving

Automate the intake and routing of everyday HR requests. Send time off requests, HR cases, and onboarding tasks from forms or email into Slack, Google Sheets, or your HRIS. Teams get faster resolution with less admin work.

Lead generation and management

Automated request intake

Capture requests from forms or email and log them instantly in Google Sheets or Notion, so HR can triage work without monitoring multiple inboxes.

Time off routing

Route each request to the right approver, notify managers in Slack, and record outcomes automatically, so time off moves faster.

HR case alerts

Send immediate Slack or Gmail notifications when a case opens, changes priority, or stalls, so urgent employee issues do not sit unseen.

Smart approval paths

Direct approvals by team, request type, or status change, reducing back-and-forth and keeping HR automation consistent across workflows.

Onboarding task handoffs

Pass signed forms, docs, and task details to the next owner automatically, so onboarding steps keep moving without manual follow-up.

How it works

HR operations automation connects your tools, detects employee requests and HR record changes, and triggers workflows automatically. Route cases, update records, and alert teams in real time—without manually tracking inboxes or spreadsheets.

  1. Step 1

    Connect your tools

  2. Step 2

    Define triggers

    Set conditions for new hire forms, time off requests, case updates, survey responses, or benefits changes.

  3. Step 3

    Automate & measure

    Route requests, send reminders, update records, and continuously track HR process improvements automatically.
