Strengths and watch-outs in Spain

✓ Small founder-led team in Barcelona, with both founders named and Juan Carlos Ruiz as the registered director, which gives clients direct access to the people running the service.
✓ Recruitment and EOR from one provider, with a focus on Spanish IT and digital talent.
✓ A transparent cost structure: gross salary, employer Social Security and Hirely's margin are listed separately, with optional costs such as coworking named.
✓ Local knowledge of Catalan as well as Spanish tax and social contribution rules.
✓ Short stated timelines: a proposal in five business days and hires in 7 to 10 business days to 4 weeks.
✗ The employing company's registered purpose is sports instruction plus IT consultancy, with nothing on staffing. Neither In Life Projects SL nor Hirely appears in the ETT register, so the basis for supplying workers to client companies should be checked.
✗ The website address (Ronda de Sant Pere 40) does not match the registered office (Rosselló 157), and the legal notice omits the Registro Mercantil details normally included.
✗ No prices are published; even the fixed monthly fee needs a call and proposal.
✗ Spain-only and very small, with no published reviews, certifications or named benefit partners, and immigration support is mentioned only in passing.
✗ Small share capital (€3,000) and no public financial data, which limits what buyers can check about its ability to cover salaries and severance.
