What Volca does

So what does automated payroll actually mean?

Volca runs the calculation and control work between ServiceTitan and your payroll provider. It turns the rules, source data, exceptions, and final handoff your team manages today into one repeatable process.

01

Read the source data

Volca connects to ServiceTitan job, invoice, timecard, role, and pricebook context without rebuilding the week through exports.

02

Apply your exact rules

Your commission, hourly, split, spiff, bonus, deduction, and exception logic is encoded and applied consistently every cycle.

03

Surface what needs judgment

Missing inputs and anomalies are flagged for review before checks are cut. Your team stays in control of the few items that matter.

04

Ship a validated file

Volca produces a payroll-ready export for the provider you already use. Your processor still cuts the checks.

Can Volca handle our comp structure?

If your pay plan can be explained, it can be encoded, tested, and repeated.

Volca maps the rules your team applies today, including the exceptions that live in spreadsheets, offer letters, and institutional knowledge.

Commission

Commission logic, from simple percentages to layered tiers.

Your plan does not need to change first. The demo is where we inspect the real rules and show how they become a calculation trail.

The questions worth answering now.

Clear these up before the demo so the live conversation can focus on your actual payroll, comp plans, and edge cases.

Do we have to switch payroll providers?

No. Volca calculates and audits payroll, then exports a validated file to the payroll system you already use, including providers such as ADP, Paychex, Paycom, Paylocity, Gusto, and QuickBooks.

Will our pay plan need to change?

Usually no. Volca is designed to encode layered plans, including GP-margin commissions, tiered bands, pricebook spiffs, helper splits, callback deductions, hourly pay, overtime, and role logic.

How do employees view their pay?

Employees receive an itemized report showing the jobs, hours, commissions, spiffs, deductions, and source logic behind the check. They can approve or dispute before payroll runs.
