ChartHop is a human resources software company founded in 2018 by Ian White, who previously founded the ad-tech company Index Exchange. The company is headquartered in New York and builds software that connects organizational data, such as headcount, compensation, and performance metrics, into a visual and analytical platform for HR and business leaders.
The company's core product started as a dynamic org chart tool that pulls data from HR systems to visualize company structure in real time. ChartHop has since expanded into a broader HR platform offering modules for HRIS, workforce planning, compensation management, performance reviews, and employee engagement. Its customers include mid-market and growth-stage companies looking to centralize people data that would otherwise be spread across spreadsheets and disparate HR tools.
ChartHop has raised funding from investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Cross Creek, and Human Capital. The company raised a Series B round in 2021 and has continued to raise additional capital as it expanded its product suite. It employs several hundred people and competes with other HR technology vendors such as Rippling, Lattice, and BambooHR.

Who ChartHop competes with, and how they differ.
Lattice sells the same mid-market people-platform bundle - performance, engagement, compensation and, since 2023, its own HRIS - but leads with performance management, where ChartHop leads with org charts, headcount planning and workforce analytics. Both target VC-backed US companies scaling past a few hundred employees.
1 product reviewed on TopReviewedHiBob is an HRIS-first mid-market platform that ships org charts, compensation and people analytics in the same product, and is strongest in UK and EU multinationals. ChartHop approached the identical buyer from the analytics and headcount-planning side and only added its own HRIS module in 2024.
1 product reviewed on TopReviewedVisier is a pure-play people analytics vendor sold to large enterprises that already run Workday or SAP SuccessFactors, priced and implemented as a reporting layer on top of an existing system of record. ChartHop bundles the analytics with operational modules - headcount planning, compensation cycles, performance - rather than selling reporting alone.
1 product reviewed on TopReviewedRippling is a payroll and HR system of record that also renders org charts and headcount data, competing with ChartHop for the system-of-record slot in the US mid-market. Its differentiator is unified IT provisioning of devices and app accounts, which ChartHop does not do.
Orgvue concentrates on org design and workforce-planning scenario modelling for large enterprise restructuring programmes, typically sold consulting-led alongside a transformation project. ChartHop sells continuous self-serve org and headcount management to high-growth mid-market people teams.
1 product reviewed on TopReviewedPersonio is the European mid-market HR system of record, strongest in the DACH region and priced per employee for SMBs. It overlaps ChartHop on core HRIS records and people analytics but has little footprint in ChartHop's core US market.
