By Amit Chowdhry • Aug 28, 2024

Tilt, a platform for leave management solutions, announced the completion of its $15 million Series B funding round. This funding round was led by Bramalea Partners, with additional participation from HearstLab and continued support from Firework Ventures, Origin Ventures, and Techstars.

To further support its strategic direction, Tilt also announced the addition of Jill Frankle to its Board of Directors. With extensive experience in venture capital, alternative assets management, and board governance, Frankle brings to the board a wealth of insight and the proven foresight to drive strategic innovation in both corporate and startup environments.

Tilt has created a new standard in the leave of absence industry, and they are eager to further its platform built for HR professionals to manage leaves of absence while becoming strategic leaders in their organization.

This funding will enable Tilt to expand the connectivity of the leave of absence ecosystem even further. And Tilt can now build upon the solid foundation established through the industry’s first two-way API integration to include pay data between a Leave Management and HRIS system, specifically, with the workforce management platform Rippling.

In the past year, Tilt’s partnership with Rippling has enabled seamless data transfer and boosted operational efficiencies for Tilt and Rippling customers across the country. And Tilt is committed to expanding its partnerships and API integrations that will further streamline leave management processes.

Tilt’s efforts for an interconnected system of HR technology has already started with the announcement of a new two-way API integration with Workday and a strategic partnership with Paycor. And the two-way integration with Workday comes as part of their Partner Marketplace, where they deliver “integrations you can trust” with their certified Workday design approved badge. These collaborations will augment platform capabilities, offering HR professionals even more powerful tools to manage leaves of absence.

This new funding will accelerate Tilt’s goals in creating a comprehensive platform that not only simplifies leave management but also positions HR professionals as pivotal leaders in their organizations. And Tilt is dedicated to delivering innovative solutions that meet the evolving needs of its clients and their employees.
