HR helpdesk, attendance & payroll inputs

An HR assistant every employee can message on WhatsApp.

HR teams answer the same questions every day. How many leaves do I have? What is the travel policy? Where is my payslip? An AI assistant on WhatsApp answers them instantly from your policies and records, collects attendance and payroll inputs, and passes anything sensitive to HR.
