Toronto startup Clear Onboard aims to let companies "focus on innovation, not administration"

"Working as a consultant means I've been through the 'on boarding' processes a lot of times," says Yang Yu, founder and president of Prognex Group. "Usually, either my email wasn't setup, or I had no parking pass, or I had to wait a week for my voicemail. I wanted to change that."

So Yu's Prognex developed the startup Clear Onboard, launching later this month at Sprouter's Toronto Sprout Up conference. Clear Onboard offers software to manage the hiring and orientation process. "Most of the talent management software that's available is really enterprise level," says Yu. "We saw an opportunity in the market serving small and medium sized business."

The company -- headquartered in the Financial District and currently run by four team members, including Yu -- has been in operation since 2008, previously offering Yask, a business process management platform that is more enterprise level, Yu says. With Clear Onboard he hopes to prove the concept over the next few months before seeking capital through investors.
