3.8/ 5

Humi, now Employment Hero, pulls Canadian HR, payroll, and AI hiring into one platform, with Québec support and verifiable security certifications. Just know that core plan prices are quote-only, and user minimums plus contracted-user billing make budgeting tricky. Overall, it's a strong pick for Canadian SMBs that are fine with a sales-led buying process.

Pros

  • Pros:Canadian compliance is handled natively — the platform automates CRA remittances, T4 generation and submission, and provincial payroll rules, with Managed Payroll handled end-to-end by certified professionals including EHT remittances.
  • Pros:Québec operations are properly supported through the dedicated Humi by Employment Hero product, which offers full French-language support and compliance with Québec payroll legislation rather than treating the province as an afterthought.
  • Pros:The AI recruitment agent scores, screens, and interviews applicants 24/7 and hands you a shortlist, with a free signup for the hiring hub that requires no HR or payroll subscription to use.

Cons

  • Cons:Core plan pricing (HR Standard through Employment Unlimited, Pro tiers, and HeroForce) is quote-only, so you can't budget until you go through a sales demo, and no refund policy is displayed on the pricing page.
  • Cons:Most plans carry a 10-user minimum and billing is based on the higher of contracted or active users each month, which penalizes fluctuating headcounts and rules out very small teams.
  • Cons:Integrations vary depending on which Employment Hero product you choose, so you need to verify compatibility with your existing stack (Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, accounting tools) before buying, and API access is gated to HR Premium and above.
Best for
  • Canadian SMBs that want HR, payroll, and hiring managed in one platform
  • Businesses with Québec operations that need French-language support and provincial compliance
  • Teams drowning in manual CRA remittances and payroll admin

What is Humi?

Running payroll, tracking hours, and juggling Canadian employment rules across separate tools eats up your week. Humi—now Employment Hero—pulls HR, payroll, hiring, and benefits into one platform built for Canadian compliance. You automate CRA remittances, streamline onboarding, and keep payroll data stored in Canada.

Employment Hero (formerly Humi) is an AI-powered employment platform for Canadian businesses. It combines HR software, automated payroll, recruitment tools, time tracking, and benefits in one system. Acquired in 2025, the brand now serves most of Canada as Employment Hero, while Humi by Employment Hero remains the dedicated option for Québec and existing clients.

It's built for small and medium-sized businesses across many industries.

Should you choose Humi?

Quick buyer guidance before you compare plans or click through.

Choose it if

  • Small and medium businesses in retail, hospitality, tech, health, and professional services
  • Founders who want onboarding and scheduling to stop eating their week
  • Organizations that need PIPEDA-compliant data handling with payroll stored in Canada
  • R&D-driven companies looking to strengthen SR&ED claims with expert consultants
  • Teams that value talking to Canadian support specialists who know local tax forms

Skip it if

  • Buyers who want transparent self-serve pricing—the homepage pushes demo requests, and enterprise pricing is quote-only
  • Teams outside Canada, since this site is built around Canadian compliance; global hiring runs through HeroForce rather than the core platform
  • Shoppers comparing exact plan limits and add-on costs—those details sit on a separate pricing page you'll need to review carefully
  • Buyers dependent on specific integrations, since compatibility varies depending on which Employment Hero product you use
  • Existing Humi customers should confirm which platform they'll land on before the transition affects their workflow

Next steps before buying

  1. 1Review the plans and pricing page so you understand tier differences and potential extra costs before booking anything
  2. 2Confirm which platform fits you—Employment Hero for most of Canada, Humi by Employment Hero for Québec or French-language requirements
  3. 3Check the integrations page against your current tools, since compatibility depends on the product you choose
  4. 4Try the interactive payroll demo to see real workflows before talking to sales
  5. 5Ask about implementation support, data migration, and any trial terms when you request a demo, and compare against alternatives

Ease of use

Setup is guided rather than self-serve. The company assigns a team to handle implementation and describes switching from other software as straightforward. Canadian support and payroll specialists are retained, and separate Help Centres cover both platforms. An interactive guided payroll demo lets you explore workflows before you commit, and customer case studies report onboarding and scheduling that once took hours now run streamlined.

Humi Key Features

💸 Payroll that runs in minutes, not days

You shouldn't need days to pay your team. Automated payroll calculates statutory pay, overtime, and provincial rules, then files CRA remittances for you. Payslips generate automatically, and you can run multiple pay schedules.

Prefer to hand it off? Managed payroll by certified professionals covers processing, year-end reconciliation, and T4 filing while you keep full visibility.

✨ Hire faster with AI doing the screening

The AI recruitment agent scores, screens, and interviews applicants, taking you from job post to shortlist in minutes. An applicant tracking system keeps candidates organized, while automated scheduling books interviews for you. New hires get a paperless welcome—digital offer letters and information collection happen in one flow, so onboarding starts before day one.

✨ HR admin that acts, not just records

HR here is built to act, not just store. When something changes—an update, a request—the platform triggers the next step for you. Day-to-day admin stays covered:

  • Digital timesheets, rostering, and time off, synced so every pay cheque is accurate
  • Reporting tools for data-driven decisions
  • An integrated LMS to upskill your team

✨ Benefits, advisory, and global hiring built in

Beyond the core platform, you can sync employee data with insurers for health benefits like dental and vision, cutting manual enrolment admin. Expert HR and employment advisory is available when you need it, and SR&ED consultants use your platform data to strengthen claims. If you're hiring abroad, HeroForce acts as legal Employer of Record in 180+ countries.

📱 A superapp your employees will actually use

Your team gets the Employment Hero Work app, where they handle leave requests, timesheets, schedules, and pay stubs without chasing anyone. Hero passport keeps contracts, payslips, and payment summaries in a secure vault they can access anytime—even after they leave. Québec teams get Humi by Employment Hero, with full French-language support and provincial compliance.

Use Cases

💸 Run payroll without the CRA paperwork

It's pay day, and your admin runs the cycle in minutes—not days. The platform automates CRA remittances, T4s, and statutory pay, with payroll data stored in Canada.

Expected outcome: accurate paycheques and no manual spreadsheet math.

Tip: Explore the interactive payroll demo before you talk to sales.

🚀 Hire and onboard faster

A hiring manager posts a role, and the AI agent scores, screens, and interviews applicants around the clock. Shortlisted candidates move into the ATS, then paperless onboarding collects their details automatically.

Expected outcome: less time chasing resumes, more time picking the right person.

⚜️ Support a Québec team properly

You have offices in Québec and need French-language support. Humi by Employment Hero is purpose-built for the province, with full compliance with Québec payroll legislation.

Expected outcome: one platform that works in French and keeps you compliant.

🤝 Hand off the back office

Your team is growing and payroll admin keeps piling up. Managed Payroll lets certified professionals process each run, file T4s, and handle EHT remittances while you keep full visibility.

Tip: Ask about Employment Unlimited if you'd rather not touch payroll admin at all.
