A custom HR app for SMEs that have outgrown spreadsheets but don't need Workday. Onboarding, certifications, shifts, time-off, performance, payroll-feed. We integrate Xero Payroll, BambooHR, or your incumbent — and replace where it makes sense.
Onboarding, certifications, shifts, time-off, performance — one stack, not five.
Joiner gets a portal: sign contract, upload right-to-work, set up payroll, complete inductions, meet the team. HR sees the progress bar. Day one isn't admin; it's work.
Certifications (food hygiene, gas safe, first aid, CPD) tracked against expiry. Reminders to the holder and to the manager. The compliance file is always current.
Rota by location, by skill, by day-part. Staff request swaps; manager approves in two taps. Hours feed payroll. Forecast hours vs cover gap surfaced before the week starts.
Time-off requests with auto-balance, manager approval, calendar integration. Sickness tracked. Patterns flagged. The team sees who's off; the manager sees who's exposed.
Lightweight performance reviews on a 90-day cycle. Goals captured at the start; check-ins at 30 and 60; review at 90. The form is short; the cadence is honest.
Live: headcount by department, attrition rolling 12-month, sickness rolling 90-day, payroll cost by location. The numbers the board asks for, ready before they ask.
A hospitality group ran HR across four spreadsheets, a WhatsApp group for shifts, and a folder of PDFs. The HR lead spent an estimated 8 hours/week reconciling. We shipped an HR app integrated with their Xero Payroll. Two months in: HR admin time 8 hrs → 1.5 hrs/week, three lapsed food-hygiene certs caught before audit, rota cover-gap surfaced 4 days before the bank holiday weekend.
How we measure: HR admin time tracked via self-report and calendar audit (8 weeks pre/post), cert lapses caught against the audit log, cover-gap detection lead-time measured against rota publish.
Most-relevant verticals — but the same shape works for adjacent ones.
We map your HR ops, ship the right-sized app, integrate your payroll.
