Why we built Kova
Kova was born from a simple frustration: why does HR software cost thousands of dollars and take months to set up? We set out to build something different — an AI-native platform that a founder can set up in minutes and that scales as the team grows.
Based in the US, built for US businesses. We handle US payroll, US tax compliance, and US employment law — focused on doing one market really well.
