What is Miter?

Miter added accounts payable and opened a free API — it's no longer just construction payroll.

Miter ships one large digest every one to two months rather than continuous entries, and each is organized by module: HR, Payroll, Field Ops, Spend, Platform, Ecosystem. The summer update is the broadest yet, adding an Accounts Payable module, API 2.0 as a free self-serve install, Safety Passport credential verification, entity-scoped granular permissions, and a run of payroll and compliance work including California break rules and OSHA report generation.

What is PeopleForce?

PeopleForce expands to frontline workers with a mobile app that skips the corporate mailbox.

PeopleForce is an HR platform for SMEs and mid-market companies shipping steadily across leave management, payroll integrations, performance reviews, electronic signatures, and compliance tooling. The product covers the core HR lifecycle — nothing is conspicuously missing — and recent releases have been incremental expansions rather than architectural changes. EU compliance features suggest a focused effort on European enterprise buyers.

Miter vs PeopleForce: editorial side-by-side

M3.8

Miter added accounts payable and opened a free API — it's no longer just construction payroll.

◆ Current state

Miter ships one large digest every one to two months rather than continuous entries, and each is organized by module: HR, Payroll, Field Ops, Spend, Platform, Ecosystem. The summer update is the broadest yet, adding an Accounts Payable module, API 2.0 as a free self-serve install, Safety Passport credential verification, entity-scoped granular permissions, and a run of payroll and compliance work including California break rules and OSHA report generation.

◆ Where it's heading

The module list keeps growing outward from payroll into everything a contractor's back office touches, and the last two releases added the two things a platform needs that a payroll product does not: a spend module of its own and an open, unmetered API. Vote counts published against each feature show the roadmap is being run off customer demand, and the compliance work is concentrated where construction is most exposed — break rules, OSHA, prevailing rate calculations.

◆ Prediction

Expect the Spend module to keep filling out around Accounts Payable, and third-party integrations built on API 2.0 to start appearing in the Ecosystem section of the next digest.

P6.3

PeopleForce expands to frontline workers with a mobile app that skips the corporate mailbox.

◆ Current state

PeopleForce is an HR platform for SMEs and mid-market companies shipping steadily across leave management, payroll integrations, performance reviews, electronic signatures, and compliance tooling. The product covers the core HR lifecycle — nothing is conspicuously missing — and recent releases have been incremental expansions rather than architectural changes. EU compliance features suggest a focused effort on European enterprise buyers.

◆ Where it's heading

The redesigned mobile app targeting frontline employees — phone-number sign-in, no corporate email required — is the clearest directional signal: PeopleForce is moving beyond desk-based HR workflows toward the broader distributed workforce. Combined with payroll system integrations (Optima, enova365) and EU Pay Transparency support, the product is building a compliance-plus-coverage argument for buyers with mixed workforces.

◆ Prediction

Shift scheduling and on-site time tracking are the logical next extensions of the frontline mobile push. EU compliance tooling will likely deepen as the Pay Transparency Directive reporting deadlines tighten through 2026 and 2027.
