Running a small business doesn't happen neatly between nine and five. Questions come up mid-conversation, between customer calls, or late at night when a business owner is planning their next move.
Small business owners are already using Claude and Slack to get work done. Now, for eligible customers, their Gusto data works there too.
Meet Gusto in Claude and Slack
Earlier this year, Gusto launched in ChatGPT. Today, the same experience is coming to two more tools small business teams already rely on: Claude and Slack.
Gusto payroll and people data is now available wherever small business owners are already working. No exports, no tab-switching, no spreadsheet wrangling.
Just ask in plain English:
"What drove my payroll increase last pay period?"
"How much have we spent on overtime this quarter?"
"How many active employees do we have today, and how has that changed over the last three months?"
Fast answers pulled directly from your Gusto account, all without ever leaving the tool they're already in.
Run payroll without leaving the app
For eligible customers, payroll can now be run directly inside Claude or Slack. No menus to navigate. No separate login. The work happens right in the conversation.
Why this matters for small businesses
Small business owners are turning to AI to help run their businesses. In a recent Gusto Insights report, 62% of small business owners said AI will also help level the playing field with larger competitors. And four out of five small businesses using AI have seen productivity increase by 20% or more.
Gusto's goal is to show up where small businesses are already working, not as another tab to keep open, but as a partner that's available during moments that matter.
Built on a decade of trust
Connecting payroll data to new AI tools unlocks new ways of working and running a business. Gusto has built these integrations on the same infrastructure and APIs Gusto has invested in for over a decade. For sensitive actions like running payroll, Gusto blends conversational AI with the trusted Gusto interfaces that small business owners already know. And on Claude and Slack, business owners can control exactly what types of data these platforms are able to access.
