Why you’ll love it

Faster hiring, consistent job postings, and zero writer’s block.

‍

Smarter contract notifications

Keeping your team on the same page just got a whole lot easier. We’ve improved how contract and amendment updates are communicated, so no one is left guessing.

What's new

You will now receive clear, automated notifications at every key stage. You’ll get a confirmation when an amendment is created, and both parties will get a notification as soon as a contract or amendment becomes active and again when it officially starts.

‍

Why you’ll love it

  • Everyone stays informed, so there’s no confusion and a lot less back-and-forth.
  • Automated reminders and confirmations speed up signature times.

‍

Invite users to your Ontop workspace

‍

We’ve upgraded the way you add people to your Ontop account. The new flow is simple, secure, and gives you more control.

‍

What’s new:

  • Step-by-step invite process.
  • Assign roles: Admin or Manager.
  • Add each teammate’s job title and area.
  • Extra security: Invitations only go to emails with your company domain. Plus, every new joiner confirms with a one-time password (OTP). Together, these checks block spoofing and keep unwanted sign-ups out.

Why you’ll love it

  • Quick and easy invites.
  • Extra protection for your account.
  • Everyone joins with the right role from the start.

‍

Teams just got easier

‍

Teams let you group contractors any way you want, so your paylists stay organized and your payments run smoother.

‍

Where to find it: From your account menu, select Teams and create one in seconds.

‍

Why you’ll love it

  • Set up Teams faster, with fewer steps.
  • No need to create extra roles you don’t need.
  • Keep setup simple, no extra roles.

‍

We just built your new audit trail

‍

Need to know who did what, when, and from where? Our new Activity Log gives you a crystal-clear, real-time record of everything happening in your account.

‍

Where to find it: Head over to Users & Permissions to check it out.

‍

Why you’ll love it

You get visibility into your most critical activities. Track:

  • Contracts: creations, signings, and end-date changes
  • User management: invites, removals, and cancellations
  • Payments: transactions, paylists, and payment methods

And this is just the beginning. We’ll keep adding more events to give you a full audit trail over time.
