About
Humand is a Buenos Aires-based all-in-one internal communications and HR platform — backed by Y Combinator with $5.12 million raised — providing large organizations with a mobile-first employee app that consolidates internal news, social networking, HR processes (time-off requests, payslips, benefits), and recognition programs in a single platform replacing the fragmented combination of email newsletters, intranets, and separate HR portals that most enterprises use. Founded in 2016 and serving 1,000+ companies including ArcelorMittal, Tenaris, and NSG Group with 402 employees, Humand targets mid-to-large enterprises with distributed, deskless, or manufacturing workforces where email-first communication tools fail to reach frontline workers.
