The Problem

Early adopters of PlurreHR, primarily startups and remote-first teams, loved the platform’s simplicity for tasks like generating contracts or running payroll in a single country.

But as enterprise clients began exploring the platform, the team faced a sobering reality. A Fortune 500 company evaluating PlurreHR paused negotiations after discovering inconsistencies in how the platform handled Germany’s strict labor regulations.

“We thought we’d built a global solution. But it turns out, automating payroll for a 10-person startup in Amsterdam isn’t the same as managing 10,000 employees across Berlin, Bangalore, and Singapore.”
— Rudd, CEO, PlureeHR

The stakes became clear when a healthcare client flagged gaps in audit trail capabilities, a nonstarter for HIPAA compliance. PlurreHR’s engineers had prioritized user-friendly features like one-click contract signing, assuming compliance would be a checkbox for later. But enterprise buyers demanded proof, not promises. Security questionnaires from prospects piled up, and deals stalled.

“One procurement lead told us, ‘The tool saves us time and effort, but one GDPR slip could cost us millions.’ We realized we weren’t just competing with HR software. We were competing with trust.”
— Johanna, Head of Sales, PlurreHR

This forced a strategic pivot. Instead of chasing flashy AI features, Rudd and his team doubled down on what enterprise clients truly needed: an airtight compliance infrastructure.

They delayed their roadmap by 5 months to build granular access controls, real-time labor law updates, and region-specific contract templates reviewed by local legal experts.

The Solution

PlurreHR’s engineering team had considered building an in-house system to track compliance and regulatory changes. But the sheer scale of maintaining real-time accuracy across multiple frameworks and regulations quickly became untenable. After months of tackling fragmented legal updates and manual policy adjustments, Rudd and his team turned to SecureSlare.

SecureSlate’s smooth user experience and flexibility made it easy for PlurreHR to choose SecureSlate over other vendors. The platform provided an intuitive dashboard that mapped requirements across SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, and regional labor regulations, clarifying exactly which controls mattered for enterprise clients in healthcare, finance, and beyond.

“We weren’t just checking boxes, we needed to prove that our platform could adapt when Germany updated its sick leave policies or Mexico revised mandatory profit-sharing rules. SecureSlare gave us that visibility.”
— Rudd, CEO, PlurreHR

PlurreHR’s team found that their auditors were already familiar with SecureSlate and had experience working with other devtool companies. That made the process much faster and meant less back-and-forth with their engineers. On top of that, SecureSlate’s clean, easy-to-use design helped everything run smoothly from start to finish.

With SecureSlate’s Trust Reports feature, PlurreHR could easily share its compliance posture with its current and potential customers. SecureSlate’s out-of-the-box policy templates were also extremely helpful in the implementation of security policies. They could easily align their policies to comply with the regulations changes without having to write from scratch.

SecureSlate AI was another essential feature that helped Rudd’s team automate security questionnaires, saving valuable time that would have otherwise been spent manually reviewing responses.

The Impact

When a fintech SaaS required SOC 2 compliance, PlurreHR could share a completed report within weeks, not months. A U.S. client in healthcare signed after seeing the platform’s preconfigured HIPAA workflows.

Over 67% of PlurreHR’s enterprise clients say compliance automation was the primary reason they chose the platform. As one HR director at a global retail chain put it, “They didn’t just help us hire faster. They helped us sleep better.”

“Enterprise buyers didn’t care about a pretty interface. They cared that we helped cut their legal risk across multiple countries in a matter of weeks.”
— Rudd, CEO, PlurreHR

PlurreHR’s focus on trust extended beyond compliance. Partnering with SecureSlate gave the team a way to turn security into a sales edge. By demonstrating the Trust Report, PlurreHR reduced the back-and-forth of security questionnaires and gave prospects immediate access to key audit data . This not only accelerated deal cycles, but it also helped kickstart more meaningful conversations between sales and buyers who already had security buy-in.
