HR Software for an LLC With Contractors Only

Updated June 6, 2026

If your LLC works entirely with contractors, you don't need payroll runs or benefits enrollment — you need clean time tracking, project visibility, and a tidy record of availability. Here's a fit built for exactly that.

What a contractor-only LLC needs

With 1099 contractors, the focus shifts from payroll and benefits to hours, activity, and availability. You want accurate worked-time records, optional screenshots for proof of work, and a simple way to see who's available when.

Desktop time & activity tracking (active/idle, apps, optional screenshots)
Exportable hours for invoicing and reconciliation
Time-off / availability tracking so you know who's around
Per-person controls — track only who you agree to track

Honest about payroll & benefits

Orvella doesn't run payroll or administer benefits — which is exactly right for a contractor-only LLC, since you typically pay 1099s on invoices, not payroll. Pair Orvella's time and availability tracking with your accounting tool and you're covered.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need payroll software if I only use contractors?

Usually not — contractors are typically paid on invoices. Orvella tracks their hours and availability; your accounting tool handles payments.

Can contractors be tracked with screenshots?

Yes, if agreed — Orvella Time supports optional, disclosed screenshots and activity tracking, configurable per person.

Is tracking disclosed to contractors?

Yes. Tracking is off by default and enabled per person; contractors sign into the desktop app with their email, so it's transparent.
