Human Capital planning for SMB is being tackled by TONS of startups, but HC planning at the Enterprise level is much less competitive - however a point solution for HC planning will have tremendous difficulty breaking through to the mass market as the consumers of the end result (finance most often) have to cobble together the results from a solution that targets the single HC problem plus multiple other point solutions to actually generate the output desired (fully burdened headcount forecast matched to organizational objectives & a hiring/staffing plan along with other financial objectives driven off of headcount - such as software licenses, facilities space, etc.). Excel/Google sheets are superior here until an ERP is purchased by the organization in which case ALL point solutions become redundant and obsolete (leading to 100% churn for high growth/successful customers).
Our platform allows engineers/entrepreneurs to launch point solutions (meaning it solves one specific use case as compared to breadth of an ERP) to enterprise customers. If you're interested in chatting happy to discuss and help those trying to improve the lives of those trying to disrupt the forecasting & analysis world (regardless of whether it has anything to do with our company).
