I noticed that FactorialHR's customers are predominantly companies that make, move, or serve physical products and services. These aren't pure software companies. They're manufacturers of packaging materials, agricultural machinery, furniture, and yacht builders. They run hotel chains, restaurant groups, fitness centers, and logistics operations. They produce food, chemicals, solar trackers, and even mushrooms for biotechnology. What stands out is how tangible their operations are: there's physical inventory, production lines, delivery trucks, and retail locations.

These are solidly mid-market, growth-phase companies. The employee counts cluster between 50 and 500, with a sweet spot around to 200 people. Very few show venture funding, those that do raised modest seed or Series A rounds. Instead, I see companies expanding geographically (opening their 8th pizzeria, adding a warehouse in Portugal), launching new product lines, or professionalizing family operations that started decades ago. They're past startup chaos but haven't reached enterprise bureaucracy.

I noticed that FactorialHR users are primarily digital-first companies with a strong European presence, particularly Spanish-speaking markets. The combination of Metricool for social media management, connectif for marketing automation, and CookieBot for GDPR compliance tells me these are companies running direct-to-consumer or B2C operations that need to manage both customer acquisition and regulatory requirements carefully.

The pairing of Metricool and Amplitude is especially revealing. These companies are investing heavily in both social media content distribution and product analytics, which suggests they're running coordinated campaigns where they drive traffic through social channels and then carefully measure user behavior. The high correlation with connectif, a Spanish-origin marketing platform, reinforces that many of these companies operate in European markets where sophisticated marketing automation is essential for competitive e-commerce. Meanwhile, CookieBot's prominence makes perfect sense because EU companies face strict data privacy requirements and need compliant cookie consent management.

My analysis shows these are marketing-led growth companies, likely in the scale-up phase rather than early startup or enterprise. They're sophisticated enough to need proper HR infrastructure like FactorialHR but still agile enough to prioritize integrated, modern tools. The presence of Jira Service Desk indicates they're managing customer support at scale, not just building product. These companies are balancing growth initiatives with operational maturity, investing in both customer acquisition tools and internal systems simultaneously.
