Our values

For our team

Build with empathy

We all want to build a company and a product people love, but in order to do that we need to empathize with our co-workers, clients and end users.

For our team

Learn and iterate

Growing and building a company from 0 to 1 is not easy, we will all make mistakes but it is what we learn and improve upon that will set us apart from our competitors and build a strong and coherent product and vision.

For the world

Fintech first

We want to empower companies to build hyper-individualized financial products their users love. Our robust and reliable payroll infrastructure allows any company to launch their own payroll product.

For the world

Our story

Puzzl started as a gig staffing company, and realized there was no development-friendly way to payout high volumes of W2 workers efficiently, automatically, and compliantly.

To ensure other companies didn’t run into the same problem, we decided to build Zeal, a payroll API that enables customers to build their own payroll products.
