Pyn + Namely

Namely tracks when someone joins, moves teams, or hits a milestone. Pyn takes that signal and does something with it.

Namely knows your people. Pyn reaches them.

Namely knows when someone starts, gets promoted, changes teams, or hits their anniversary. Pyn uses that data to:

  • Send timely messages to the right person - through Slack, email, or Teams.
  • Send polls and forms - like probation checks or onboarding buddy selection.
  • Automate integrations - like adding people to a Calendar invite or Slack group.
  • Set your HR Calendar - to manage salary reviews, holidays or company events.

No manual emails. No spreadsheets. No one has to remember.

Why connect Pyn and Namely?

Automate the repetitive stuff. New hire starting Monday? Pyn sends the welcome sequence, nudges the manager, loops in IT, and assigns a buddy. You choose which Namely fields to import, and Pyn can trigger off any of them.

Make messages feel personal. Pyn tailors content by department, location, and role — so a new sales hire in Chicago and an engineer in London get different experiences. Messages come from their actual manager, not a generic HR address.

Cover the whole lifecycle. Onboarding is just the start. Pyn also handles things like promotions, anniversaries, parental leave returns, and offboarding — or any other moment driven by a change in Namely.

Keep managers in the loop. When someone joins their team, Pyn sends prep reminders, check-in prompts, and conversation starters — through Slack, Teams, or email, wherever they actually work.
