For employers
A direct line to the people doing the work, clearer accountability, and a team that operates to your standards.
Global by design · Launching first with US→India
Manage your global team directly.
Your managers lead the work. Sekai handles local employment and operations, so offshore employees can work as part of your team—not behind a consulting firm.
Sekai is pre-launch. We are validating the first corridor with employers now.

The problem
Offshore work should not mean outsourced control.
Consulting firms can help companies hire quickly, but the intermediary often remains inside the working relationship. Sekai is built around a simpler model.
- 01Less context · slower correction
Management becomes indirect
The person doing the work may sit behind an account layer instead of having a direct day-to-day reporting relationship with the employer’s manager.
- 02One invoice · limited transparency
Spend and pay are hard to see
A bundled consulting rate can make it difficult to understand what goes to the worker and what pays for the intermediary.
- 03More handoffs · more friction
Accountability gets fragmented
When quality or performance slips, the manager, consulting firm, and worker may not share one clear line of responsibility.
The Sekai model
One team. Two clear responsibilities.
The employer leads the person and the work. Sekai runs the local employment layer around that relationship.
Your company
Direct the work.
Set priorities, build context, coach performance, and include the employee in your team.
DIRECT MANAGER RELATIONSHIP
Sekai
Run local operations.
Coordinate employment, pay, benefits, onboarding, and ongoing support in the employee’s country.
Why it matters
Better alignment on both sides.
The goal is to lower the employer’s total cost while giving workers access to better pay, stronger opportunities, and a healthier long-term relationship.
For employees
Clearer expectations, closer access to the manager, and the chance to grow inside the team they actually support.
How it works
From role to working relationship.
The public story is simple. The employer owns the role, hiring, and day-to-day management; formal local actions follow the validated employment model.
- 01Employer-led
Define the role
You set the work, expectations, budget, and manager relationship.
- 02Human decision
Choose the person
You interview and select. Candidates understand the role before their information is shared.
- 03Direct relationship
Bring them into your team
The employee reports to your manager and works with your team, tools, priorities, and standards.
- 04Sekai-managed
Keep local operations moving
Sekai’s model covers local employment, payroll coordination, benefits, onboarding, and ongoing worker operations.
First corridor
Global ambition. A focused start.
Sekai is being built corridor by corridor. We are beginning with US employers hiring technical talent in India, then expanding only after the model is ready.
US employer
Owns the role, interview, selection, day-to-day management, and performance decisions.
India employee
Joins the employer’s team with clear role context, consent, local employment, and an ongoing support path.
Built with clear boundaries
Direct does not mean careless.
Employers keep role, hiring, and day-to-day management authority. Candidates keep agency. AI can organize information, but people make consequential decisions.
Human decisions
Hiring, compensation, performance, discipline, and termination remain human-owned and follow the validated local process.
Candidate consent
People should understand the opportunity and choose whether their information is shared for it.
Questions
What to know before we talk.
Is Sekai live today?
Sekai is pre-launch. We are speaking with employers now and building toward the first US→India corridor.
Is Sekai only for US-to-India hiring?
No. Sekai is designed for global teams. US→India is the first corridor because we want to prove the operating model narrowly before expanding.
Who manages the employee’s work?
The employer does. Your manager sets priorities, works directly with the employee, and owns performance decisions. Sekai handles the local employment and operations layer.
What can we discuss now?
Bring one real role, your current offshore model, and the points where control, cost visibility, or accountability break down.
