Launched: First 14 Days Compliance Pack – Protect Yourself in International Remote Onboarding
Hey Indie Hackers
Just shipped my latest solo project: First 14 Days Compliance Pack — a dead-simple, print-fill-file PDF protocol to close the most dangerous gaps in the first 14 days of a cross-border remote job.Why this exists:
From observing 217+ real engineering/deep-tech hires (2021–2025), 97% of early failures (double taxation, frozen payments, misclassification penalties) trace back to skipped onboarding actions. Most people ignore the risks until they get hit months later.What it is:
6 PDFs (full 21-page pack + separated flowcharts/templates/checklist)
Core 14-Day Action Plan (daily table: Action / Why / Evidence)
Flowchart A: Employee vs Contractor classification (based on actual control, not labels)
Flowchart B: Safe payment route selector (no personal PayPal/crypto traps)
Template A: Payment & Tax Info Request Email (Day 1 must-send)
Template B: Contractor Invoice format
Final Checklist + jurisdiction snapshots (EU/US/Canada/Singapore/India refs)
No theory. No coaching. Just executable steps with evidence requirements so you can demonstrate due diligence if things go sideways. Aligned with OECD/ILO/GDPR basics.Built & sold on Gumroad as a standalone $37 digital download:

Fits my broader FRYX RESEARCH style: forensic-grade tools for high-stakes professional transitions (no ads, premium positioning, print-first focus).Milestones so far:
Jan 2026: Launched
Previews added to page (checklist table, email template, classification flowchart)
No paid promo yet — relying on X shares + word-of-mouth
Questions/feedback welcome:
What onboarding risks have you seen or faced in remote roles?
Any jurisdictions I should expand the appendix for next?
Would a "Day 15+" ongoing compliance sequel make sense?
If you're navigating international remote work or know someone who is — check it out and let me know what you think.Link again: https://fryxresearch.gumroad.com/l/first-14-days-remote-job-complianceThanks for reading!
