Every new hire means the same dozen tasks across a dozen tools — and on day one, something always slips.
Relay.app automates the entire onboarding workflow: the moment an offer is signed in Greenhouse, accounts are provisioned, the buddy intro is drafted and reviewed, and day one is scheduled — across Slack, Gmail, Calendar, and Notion.
Here's how it works, step by step
Onboarding starts the moment an offer is signed
- A candidate signs their offer in Greenhouse and the workflow fires instantly.
- Relay.app pulls the new hire's name, role, team, and start date straight from the offer.
Don't use Greenhouse? This trigger also runs from:
Provision the new hire's accounts and access groups automatically
- Relay.app invites the new hire to your Slack workspace automatically.
- It adds them to the right Google Groups — engineering@, all-hands@, whichever lists their role needs.
On a different stack? Run the same steps with:
Draft a personalized buddy intro, review it, and send
- Claude drafts the email, referencing the new hire's role, team, start date, and why they're a great match.
- People Ops gets a Slack DM with the draft and can tweak names or tone in seconds.
- Once approved, Gmail sends it — so the buddy walks in knowing exactly who they're meeting.
Prefer a different setup? Try:
Schedule the day-one kick-off and prep the onboarding page
- Google Calendar books a 30-minute kick-off — buddy, manager, and new hire — with the agenda already filled in.
- Notion spins up a personal onboarding page from your team's template, pre-filled with their name, role, and manager.
- They arrive to a doc that's actually ready — not a stale copy of last month's.
