The problem
HR software stores documents. It doesn't help you write them.
BambooHR, Gusto, and Rippling are payroll platforms. They don't generate legally-informed documents, cite applicable law, or tell you what to do next.
01
Generic AI gives generic advice
ChatGPT doesn't know your handbook, your state's labor code, or your progressive discipline policy. vael does.
02
Attorneys cost $400/hour
Most HR questions don't need an attorney. They need a knowledgeable advisor available immediately, at 7am on a Monday.
03
Documentation gaps create liability
Wrongful termination suits average $40,000–$60,000. The difference is almost always documentation quality.
Situation Triage
Describe what's happening. Get an action plan.
Type your situation in plain English. vael classifies the risk, cites applicable law, and generates a step-by-step action plan with every document you need — in the right order.
Utah Code 34-28-5 requires final wages within 24 hours of involuntary termination.
High — FMLA eligibility incomplete
ADA interactive process not documented. Exposure risk on accommodation claims.
Strength — At-will employment clearly stated
Employment-at-will language properly documented throughout.
Handbook Audit
Upload your handbook. Get a compliance gap report.
vael audits your employee handbook against current federal and state law, identifies liability gaps, and rewrites flagged sections in the same voice as your original document.
