Traditional outsourcing or consulting often fail because they treat talent like a disposable commodity, leading to misaligned goals, poor communication, and hidden costs. We know because we lived through it. That’s why we created REMOTE Intelligence™ – a fundamentally different approach built on partnership, transparency, and deep integration.

• We Build Your Team: We rigorously select (R) professionals who align with your culture and integrate (E) them deeply into your operations, making them true team members.
• Focus on Core Functions: Unlike traditional models focused on non-critical tasks, REMOTE Intelligence™ empowers you to build core teams (like software development, marketing, finance) in LatAm, driving strategic value.
• Transparent Partnership: Our Cost-Plus Pricing (T) ensures complete transparency and aligned goals – no hidden fees, just sustainable value.
• Proven Framework, Not Guesswork: Refined over 20 years, REMOTE Intelligence™ provides Managed Support (M) and focuses on Optimized Performance (O) for Enhanced Scalability (E). We handle the complexities of international employment (payroll, compliance, logistics) so you don’t have to

Our Story is Your Solution: Nir-Yu was founded by entrepreneurs who faced the exact scaling pains you’re experiencing. We didn’t just find a workaround; we pioneered a strategic advantage. We partner with ambitious leaders to turn talent challenges into growth opportunities.

Nir-Yu is different… every company says that, but our key differentiators stem from fundamentally different beliefs about what companies need to succeed with remote staffing:

Our Origin Story

• Unlike traditional EOR companies founded by HR or payroll professionals, Nir-Yu was born from real entrepreneurial experience
• Our founder built and scaled JackBe, the first Mexican tech startup funded by U.S. venture capital, experiencing firsthand the challenges of building remote teams
• We’ve lived the journey from both sides: as a client desperately needing talent, and now as a provider solving these problems
• This dual perspective shaped everything about our model:
  • We understand the real pressures of scaling a business
  • We know what it feels like to worry about making payroll
  • We’ve experienced the frustrations of working with traditional outsourcing firms
  • We’ve felt the pain of losing great talent due to poor support systems

“I built the company I wish existed when I was scaling my own startup.”

1. This entrepreneurial DNA flows through every aspect of our service:
2. We think like founders, not HR vendors
3. We understand the pressures of board meetings and fundraising
4. We know that talent decisions can make or break a company
5. We appreciate that every dollar counts for growing companies

1. High-Touch vs High-Tech
   • While competitors like Deel and Papaya Global pride themselves on their technology platforms, we believe technology should support human relationships, not replace them
   • Our competitors provide DIY tools; we provide dedicated support teams that actually solve problems
   • Example: When a client’s remote staff member has an urgent issue, they get a real person who knows their situation, not a chatbot or ticket system
2. Strategic Partner vs Vendor
   • Unlike Velocity Global or Remote that focus on processing payroll and compliance, we’re deeply involved in our clients’ growth strategy
   • Our REMOTE Intelligence framework provides structured guidance for building and scaling teams, not just handling paperwork
   • We help evaluate what roles to hire, when to hire them, and how to integrate them effectively
3. Cost-Plus Transparency
   • Most competitors hide their margins in complex pricing structures
   • Our transparent cost-plus model aligns our incentives with our clients
   • Clients know exactly what they’re paying for, including our fixed management fee
   • This builds trust and enables better long-term planning
4. Latam Expertise
   • While others try to be everywhere, we’ve focused on building deep expertise in Latin American talent markets
   • We understand the cultural nuances, professional networks, and local contexts
   • This focused expertise leads to better matches and longer retention
5. Startup and mid-market Focus
   • Most competitors are chasing enterprise clients, leaving SMEs underserved
   • We’ve specifically designed our service model for companies with 10-200 employees
   • Our support model scales with our clients’ growth
6. Talent Quality Over Quantity
   • Competitors often maintain “benches” of pre-screened candidates to place quickly
   • We conduct custom searches for each role because we believe every company’s needs are unique
   • Our rigorous vetting process includes cultural fit, not just technical skills
7. Holistic Support Model
   • Unlike pure EOR providers, we handle the entire lifecycle:
   • Strategic hiring guidance
   • Custom talent search
   • Cultural integration
   • Ongoing performance optimization
   • Career development
   • Team scaling

The bigger picture is this: The remote staffing, (including EOR) industry is at a crossroads.
Most players are racing to become technology platforms, automating everything possible to reduce costs and scale rapidly. But we believe this approach fundamentally misunderstands what companies need to succeed with remote teams.

Building successful remote teams isn’t just about processing payroll and handling compliance. It’s about finding the right people, integrating them effectively, and building lasting relationships. That’s why we’ve chosen to be high-touch in a high-tech world.
