New York, NY – August 25, 2026Electric, the leading AI-platform for IT management, today relaunched the company with the debut of a powerful AI platform that helps businesses automate time-consuming IT and HR work. Electric is distributed through an extensive payroll partner network that includes ADP, Paychex, Paycor, UKG, Justworks, isolved, and TriNet.

“Electric started as an IT help desk model for small businesses and has evolved into a robust AI platform that delivers automation and intelligence across IT and HR. It’s based on learnings across two million IT tickets and customer interactions since the company’s inception in 2017,” said Ryan Denehy, Founder & CEO of Electric. “That’s why we’re relaunching the company today, to introduce this powerful platform and the extensive industry partners that help deliver it.”

Electric’s AI-powered IT platform is available everyday to a customer base of 55,000+ end users and 1,000+ companies worldwide. It provides intuitive solutions for IT, cybersecurity, and HR needs, including:

  • Complete automation for employee onboarding and offboarding
  • Access control for role changes across hardware and software
  • Device lifecycle and inventory management
  • Device procurement and provisioning in 130 countries

  • Complete IT security
  • IT spend management

Electric is available in English, Spanish, and French Canadian languages. It offers secure AI and vibe coding environments powered by OpenAI. It also integrates with HR systems for AI-driven analysis to optimize workforce data.

“We built this platform based on customer and partner conversations that show where AI transformation and IT alignment can have bottom-line impact for small and medium businesses, by streamlining daily operations across IT and HR. We automate the time consuming and complex workflows that are essential to run any business,” said Denehy. “Our team designed Electric’s platform for those with no IT staff or smaller IT teams that need an automated and intelligent alternative to traditional MSPs.”

HR and IT are converging, and Electric provides businesses with a way to keep up, even without a dedicated IT team. Electric continues to innovate and expand its offerings. The company has raised $200 million from investors, and its accolades include a spot on Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500 list. Learn more about Electric at https://electric.ai/product.
