Fresh from Folks — April 2026: Card View for Job Postings and Payroll Management for Independent Workers

What’s New

Folks Payroll: Two Bank Accounts, Because Life Is Complicated

Your employees can now have their pay deposited into two different bank accounts! Set it all up directly in the Compensation tab of the employee profile, and choose how to split it — by percentage or fixed amount. Perfect for those who want to save automatically or manage their finances more easily.

 

Folks Payroll: Manual Exclusions Are Now Permanent

When you exclude someone from a pay period using the “included” button, they automatically stay excluded from future periods. One click, and you move on, simple as that!

 

Folks Payroll: Better Management of Your Independent Workers

New worker category! Easily identify your external consultants, subcontractors, and contractors (full-time or part-time) by employment type. Your resource management gains clarity and precision.

 

Folks ATS: Better Qualify Your Agency Mandates

Agency recruiters can now specify whether a position is to be filled on a temporary or permanent basis. A small distinction that makes a big difference when organizing your searches and tracking your contracts.

 

Folks ATS: See Where Your Jobs Are Posted in One Click with the Improved Job Board Widget

The dashboard now features a clickable widget that takes you directly to positions filtered by posting platform. Want to see what’s running on LinkedIn or Indeed? It’s just one click away.

 

Folks ATS: Your Job Postings Can Now Be Displayed in Card View

We’ve reimagined how your job postings are displayed with a modern card layout that’s easier to scan. Browsing your opportunities is now as pleasant as it is efficient.

 

Folks ATS: AI-Powered Writing Assistant (BETA)

Write faster without sacrificing quality. The new AI feature in the ATS helps you generate text content directly in the platform — job descriptions, postings, and more. A real time-saver for everything writing-related.

 

Folks HRIS: Bulk Generic Folder Creation

Say goodbye to repetitive admin work: you can now create folders for all employees at once, in a single action. No more one-by-one setup!

 

Improvements

Folks Payroll: Alphabetical Order in Sync

Employees now appear in alphabetical order in the Compensation > Sync list, making it more intuitive to find the information you need.

 

Folks HRIS: Zoom Adjustment for Small Screens

For a better experience on smaller displays, an accessibility menu with auto-detection of zoom settings is now available on all pages. Access it by clicking on your profile picture in the top right corner.

 

Folks ATS: Territory Field Back in the Job List

The territory field, which had gone missing after the switch to the new interface, is back in the job list. Clients managing multiple locations can once again visually identify where each position is based without having to open the job card. Better readability, fewer clicks.
