## The Problem

Chasing Multi-State Payroll clients for 1099s, K-1s, brokerage statements, and receipts consumes the first three weeks of every filing season — and the slowest 10% of clients create 80% of the deadline risk.

## What We Build in Rippling

## Rippling Integration Approach

1. **Audit your Rippling configuration.** We map the specific Rippling objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your multi-state payroll practice.
2. **Build on the Rippling API or agent.** Integration happens inside Rippling — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in Rippling with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
