Remote's Modern Payroll Platform Surpasses 300% Growth, Fueling Ambitious Next Chapter as the Leading Global Employment Infrastructure
Reaching $300M in ARR and cash flow positivity, Remote expands access to its platform to build for the future
NEW DELHI, May 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Remote, the global payroll and employment infrastructure platform, announced today that its payroll business has grown more than 300% year over year, with the company surpassing $300M in annual recurring revenue (ARR), and reaching cash flow positivity. With market validation and proven momentum behind it, the company is solidifying its position as the trusted payroll and employment infrastructure for businesses operating across borders.
Tens of thousands of leading companies including Anthropic, KFC, and Datadog already trust Remote's Global Payroll, Employer of Record, and Contractor Management solutions to hire and pay talent anywhere. The world's leading HR platforms, including Workday, BambooHR, and Personio, have chosen Remote to power their own global employment offerings. With 100+ owned legal entities across the world, regulated payments institutions across key markets, and billions in payroll processed annually, Remote has established itself as the infrastructure layer global businesses run on.
The demand driving that growth is surging. As companies seek specialized talent across the globe, the legal and compliance complexity of employing people across borders has never been greater. For the enterprises navigating this reality, the infrastructure underneath global employment is a strategic foundation, not an operational detail.
