History
Deel was founded in 2019 by Alex Bouaziz, Shuo Wang, and Ofer Simon. Bouaziz and Wang met while studying at MIT in 2013. The founders launched Deel after encountering difficulty hiring international workers for their previous ventures.
Deel launched after entering the Y Combinator startup accelerator in 2019. The company then raised several rounds of funding.

In January 2023, it reported having 2,000 employees.
