When was Business Kitz started, and by who?Business Kitz was founded in 2016 by a group of lawyers, accountants, and HR professionals who had worked with some of Australiaβs largest ASX-listed companies. Their mission was to provide small to medium businesses with affordable access to the legal, compliance, and HR tools usually reserved for big corporations.
- β
Does Business Kitz replace the need for a lawyer or HR consultant?For many small to medium businesses, Business Kitz replaces nearly the entire compliance function of a traditional HR manager. Our platform provides lawyer-drafted templates, policies, guides, and tools that cover the vast majority of day-to-day legal and HR needs.
This allows your managers to focus on what really matters: engagement, culture, and growth while we handle the complex compliance work, including Fair Work obligations and legal updates. For high-risk or highly specific legal matters, we still recommend tailored advice via Legal Kitz, but for most businesses, Business Kitz is the complete compliance solution they need.
- β
How much does Business Kitz help me save?Business Kitz gives you access to over $125,000 worth of professionally drafted legal and HR templates, plus tools like e-signatures, task management, and compliance tracking, all for a flat, affordable subscription. Most businesses save thousands of dollars each year on legal and HR costs alone.
- β
How does Business Kitz compare to hiring a lawyer or HR consultant?Hiring a lawyer or HR consultant can cost between $300β$500 per hour.
