Investment Announcement: TeamOhana - Redefining Workforce Planning

Collide Capital co-led a $7.5M seed round alongside Sierra Ventures and Lerer Hippeau. Here’s why we’re bullish:

Most growing companies share a critical challenge: ineffective headcount management. Headcount management is one of the most complex processes in your organization and is responsible for 70% of your OPEX. Yet, it's still handled by disconnected teams, manual processes, and runs on spreadsheets. At Collide Capital, we’ve placed a big bet on a future where headcount management isn’t just a spreadsheet exercise—it’s a strategic superpower.

This conviction led us to invest in TeamOhana. 

TeamOhana brings finance and talent teams into a single platform purpose-built to help companies maximize the ROI of every dollar spent on headcount while minimizing the time required to manage it. 

The $28B Market Gap

The workforce management sector is exploding (11.67% CAGR to $28.64B by 2033), but legacy tools weren’t built for today’s agile, remote-first teams. TeamOhana fills this gap with real-time integrations, AI-driven analytics, and enterprise-grade controls—replacing error-prone spreadsheets with a dynamic source of truth.

ROI That CFOs Can’t Ignore

• 89% faster reconciliation: Customers like Metronet reduced headcount planning from a full-time job to 10% of one employee’s workload.
• $6-figure/year saved: Automated approval workflows prevent unplanned hires and comp changes from slipping through.
• 75% fewer manual tasks: Finance teams regain 60+ hours/month to focus on strategy, not data entry.

The Agentic Future of Headcount

We’re seeing a shift toward systems where Finance, Talent, and department leaders collaborate—not just coexist. TeamOhana enables this with:

• Scenario planning: Model hiring freezes, geo shifts, or merit cycles in seconds.
• Dynamic org charts: Visualize current and future teams without manual updates.
• AI Copilot: Answer questions like “How does attrition impact Q3 burn?” in 30 seconds.

Why This Matters Now

Post-pandemic volatility demands agility. As Docker’s FP&A lead shared, “I sleep better at night with TeamOhana.” Companies can’t afford to overhire in growth spurts or lag behind in downturns. TeamOhana’s traction proves the need:

• 3.5x YoY ARR growth 
• Enterprise adoption: Customers like SeatGeek, Postman, Vercel and Scale AI onboarded in <4 weeks.
• Security-first: SOC 2 Type II + ISO 27001 certified—critical for Fortune 500 pipelines.

We’re Just Getting Started

TeamOhana’s founders (22+ years scaling B2B SaaS) are building the new operating system for all headcount data—integrating FP&A, ATS, HRIS, and Payroll. Powered by AI, TeamOhana delivers real-time answers and insights for every decision. With a clear path to $5M ARR in the next 12mo, they’re poised to own the enterprise market. Keep an eye on their journey.
