About
Paycom Software, Inc. is an Oklahoma City, Oklahoma-based human capital management (HCM) software company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: PAYC) as an S&P 500 component — providing a single-database HCM platform that manages payroll, talent acquisition, talent management, HR management, and time and labor for over 37,000 clients and 7 million+ employees through recurring subscription revenue of $1.88 billion in fiscal year 2024 with a 41% EBITDA margin and 90% annual client retention rate. Founded in 1998 by CEO Chad Richison (who funded the startup by selling his house and cashing out his 401k at age 27), Paycom was among the first companies to process payroll entirely online — pioneering cloud-based HR technology before SaaS was an established software delivery model. Paycom's single-database architecture (all HCM modules sharing one data layer, eliminating the file imports and reconciliation required by multi-vendor HR stacks) enables Beti®, the employee self-service payroll product where employees review and approve their own paychecks before processing — reducing payroll errors at the source rather than correcting them after the fact. In 2025, Paycom launched IWant™, a command-driven AI engine allowing users to access employee information through voice-to-text or typed natural language commands — named a Top HR Product of 2025 by HR Executive magazine.
