Deel global HR and payroll automation questions.
What can I automate between Kognitos and Deel?
Contractor onboarding, payroll-cycle approvals, invoice reconciliation, time-off exception handling, expense triage, and document-driven status changes. Kognitos reads Deel records and uploaded documents, applies your global HR policy in plain English, and updates Deel and your downstream finance system with full audit.
How does Kognitos connect to Deel?
Through Deel's REST API using a Personal Access Token or OAuth 2.0. You scope the token to the operations the automation needs, and Kognitos stores it in a managed secret store with rotation.
Can Kognitos enforce country-specific HR and tax rules in Deel workflows?
Yes. Your written rules express country-specific policy deterministically ("for contractors in Germany, require a tax form before activation; in India, attach the PAN and address verification"). Kognitos enforces these rules at run time and logs every change as evidence.
Is contractor and payroll data secured when using Kognitos?
Yes. Kognitos is SOC 2 Type II, encrypts data in transit and at rest, and never uses Deel data for model training. Tokens live in a managed secret store and all reads and writes are logged with the rule that triggered them.
How do I get started with the Kognitos + Deel integration?
Book a demo. We'll help you connect Deel, pick a global HR or payroll bottleneck, and ship a working automation written in plain English in the first session.
