After three tours as a CFO, Amy Spurling stopped treating employee perks as a shopping list. Compt is her attempt to turn a stubborn budget line into a system built on choice, evidence, and trust.
Compt is a Boston-based HR software company that runs flexible employee stipends and Lifestyle Spending Accounts (LSAs) for employers. Instead of one-size-fits-all perks, employees choose how to spend an allowance across categories like wellness, professional development, childcare, home office and pet care; they submit a receipt and get reimbursed through payroll with the correct tax treatment applied automatically. Founded in 2018 by Amy Spurling, the reimbursement-based platform emphasizes IRS-compliant tax handling, high participation, and low administrative overhead, and operates across all 50 U.S. states and 75+ countries.
