Finch vs. Plaid

Finch is a unified API and connectivity platform that connects HR, benefits, and financial applications to 250+ HRIS and payroll providers. By serving as the intermediary, Finch helps B2B companies onboard their customers and sync data without building and maintaining integrations individually. This streamlines the process for end users (employers) and makes it easier to keep all systems up to date. Finch is primarily used by the developers, product managers, and operations teams within organizations that need to integrate with HRIS and payroll systems.
