Why Alttwork
A system of action, not another system of record
Legacy HCM and CRM suites store the truth. Copilots answer questions about it. Alttwork prepares the work and routes it for human approval — on top of the systems you already own.

| Governance | Configurable, manual | Limited | Approval gates + full audit, by default |
| Automation | Rules & RPA | Single copilot | Multi-agent orchestration |

| Audience | Human users | Human users | Humans and autonomous agents |
Examples of the legacy-suite category include platforms such as Workday, SAP and Rippling; Alttwork is designed to sit on top of these as the execution and governance layer, not to replace your system of record. This is our positioning — we encourage side-by-side evaluation.
