HigherMe

Hourly hiring software and payroll for multi-location teams

Visit HigherMe

HigherMe is a hiring, onboarding, and payroll platform built specifically for high-volume hourly teams. It solves the problem of managing fragmented hiring processes across multiple job boards, spreadsheets, and manual communication, which often leads to missed candidates, slow time-to-hire, and high turnover. The platform consolidates sourcing, screening, interviewing, onboarding, and payroll into one connected system, eliminating data re-entry and handoffs between hire date and first paycheck.

Key capabilities include an applicant tracking system (ATS) with a centralized applications dashboard, automated interview scheduling, and candidate reminders via text and email. The platform offers AI-assisted pre-screening through NextMatch AI, which ranks candidates with a score from 0 to 100 based on hiring criteria. It also includes paperless onboarding for collecting forms, signatures, and tax documents before day one, as well as analytics to track hiring performance across roles and locations. Integrations span 25,000+ job boards including Indeed, LinkedIn, Google, and ZipRecruiter, and the platform supports mobile-first applications with Text-to-Apply and video cover letters.

HigherMe is designed for franchise operators, restaurant groups, and retail managers running multiple locations with high-volume hourly hiring. The platform is available through a demo booking, with no free plan or trial mentioned on the provided pages. Pricing details, editions, and whether it is seat-based or usage-based are not disclosed.
