Want to Start a New Business?

Gravitas doesn't just support small businesses that already have HR in place — we help you build it from scratch. If you're launching a new company, we'll get your HR infrastructure set up correctly the first time, so you're compliant and protected before you make your first hire.

Our business setup support includes:

• Guidance on business structure and assistance with state organization/incorporation
• Employee classification guidance (W-2 vs. 1099) and initial hiring compliance
• Offer letters, employment agreements, and onboarding documents
• Employee handbook development tailored to your state and industry
• Payroll and HRIS system selection, using our discounted partner rates with various HRIS or payroll providers
• Workplace policies covering wage & hour, leave, safety, and anti-harassment requirements
• A clear path into one of our ongoing retainer plans once you're up and running (only if you want to, no pressure!)

Whether you're a solo founder about to hire your first employee or a growing team formalizing HR for the first time, we'll make sure the foundation is solid — so you can focus on running the business, not researching compliance requirements. Priced at $399.
