Miter

Integrated HR and payroll software for construction

About Miter

Miter provides an integrated software solution designed specifically for the construction industry, focusing on streamlining administrative tasks such as onboarding, timesheets, payroll, reporting, and compliance. The platform allows construction firms to manage both W2 employees and 1099 contractors efficiently, with a mobile app that enables team members to submit timesheets directly from the field. Miter operates on a subscription-based model, offering features like e-signature functionality and automated reporting. A key differentiator is their "white glove" onboarding service, where labor compliance experts assist clients in optimizing the platform for their needs. The goal of Miter is to simplify administrative processes for construction firms, helping them save time, avoid penalties, and secure more public sector contracts.
