More Than a PEO.
Everything a PEO does, plus the parts a PEO was never built for, through one person who knows your name.
A PEO is a Professional Employer Organization: a company that becomes the co-employer of record for your US staff so it can run payroll, benefits and tax filings at scale. TriNet is the best known example, and for payroll and benefits alone it is a solid answer.
Akoto starts where that stops. Same compliance coverage, plus recruiting, leadership development and investor access, delivered by one dedicated HR representative who knows your org chart by name and answers the same day.
