What Upplft is
Upplft is a web platform for coordinating contingent workers from hiring and onboarding through payment and compliance. It standardizes requests, approvals, onboarding, and pay across teams and regions, while keeping worker profiles, engagements, suppliers, approvals, compliance status, and costs in a shared system of record. Hiring tools include candidate pipelines, talent pools, interview panels, assessments, and scheduling. Other lifecycle capabilities include timesheets, invoicing, payments, payroll, and compliance checks. Workflows can incorporate right-to-work checks, background screening, health and safety, and policy approvals. Approval workflows, rate controls, and policy requirements are built into the process, and reporting gives visibility into spend, supplier performance, compliance exposure, and workforce mix. Upplft connects with existing ATS, VMS, and payroll systems and lists integrations such as Oncore, Xemplo, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and Zoom. It works alongside existing systems through phased implementation rather than replacing them. The platform lists ISO 27001 information security management and GDPR compliance. It is aimed at HR and People, Finance, and Procurement teams. Pricing is available on request.
