Warp just raised $60M to rebuild your entire HR stack with AI agents. Your Workday contract just became a liability.

Warp just closed a $60M Series B led by Battery Ventures.

Total funding: $85M in under a year. The round came together in six days.

Their pitch is simple. Employee management is the last major enterprise software category that hasn't been rebuilt around AI. Payroll, compliance, benefits, onboarding, offboarding, IT provisioning. All of it. Rebuilt from scratch.

The numbers are already working. Warp says its average customer grows 5x faster than peers while operating with one-tenth the HR and administrative overhead.

Not chatbots on top of legacy workflows. Software that completes the work itself. Registers tax accounts. Files returns. Provisions accounts on hire. Deprovisions on termination. Benefits elections flow directly into payroll without manual reconciliation.

This is the Workday killer that Workday doesn't see coming.

Your HR team is about to split into two categories: the ones who adapt to AI-native tools, and the ones who get replaced by them. The same applies to your payroll vendor, your benefits broker, and your compliance consultants.

Audit your HR stack today. If your payroll still takes days instead of seconds, if your compliance requires manual filings, if your onboarding needs a human to provision accounts, you're already behind. The companies running on Warp are operating at a different speed.

SIGNAL: AI is rebuilding the $30B+ HCM market from the ground up. Companies automating HR operations are scaling faster with dramatically lower overhead. The legacy HR tech stack is now a competitive disadvantage.
