Our platform is built for businesses in Ethiopia that want to manage payroll, attendance, leave, recruitment, and employee data in one place. It works well for small, medium and large companies, NGOs, and growing teams that have outgrown Excel and manual processes.

Yes. The system is designed around Ethiopian tax rules and the Labour Proclamation. Payroll calculations support Ethiopian tax, pension, and other statutory deductions, and leave policies can be configured to match local legal requirements as well as your internal company rules.

Absolutely. You can set up custom payroll components (allowances, bonuses, deductions), define your own leave types and policies, and configure multiple shifts for different teams or branches. The goal is to match how your business actually operates, not force you into a rigid template.

Yes. You can connect supported biometric devices for real-time attendance, and you can also use our mobile check-in with geolocation for field or remote employees. Both attendance sources feed into the same system so you can see who worked, when, and from where.

Payroll can be exported in formats you can use for eTax reporting and for sending salary payments to your bank. This reduces manual editing and helps you avoid mistakes when paying employees or submitting reports.

Yes. Every employee gets access to their own self-service portal where they can view pay slips, request leave, see leave balances, update personal information, and (if enabled) check in/out for attendance. This reduces HR workload and keeps everyone informed.

You don't have to start from zero. You can import employee data from spreadsheets and gradually migrate payroll, leave balances, and other records. If you need help, our team will guide you through the import process.

Your data is stored securely with role-based access control so that only authorized people can see sensitive information. Employee records, payroll data, and documents are protected, and we follow best practices for backups and data protection.

Pricing is based on the number of employees, with two simple subscription tiers and a transparent monthly fee. You get full access to features and on-going support. Contact us for a quote that matches your team size and requirements.

Most teams are up and running in a few days. We add employees, set up payroll rules, and configure leave and shifts. Full setup depends on how complex your current processes are, but we support you throughout, including training your team.
