In short

HR Nova.ai is HR and payroll software (HRMS) for companies with roughly 25 to 1,000 employees. It brings recruitment, employee records, attendance, leave, payroll, performance management, engagement, and HR analytics into one system. You can run it in the cloud, as a hosted instance, or on your own servers. A named person reviews every AI output before it affects pay, ratings, or employee records.

01 /The problem

HR shouldn't run on five tools that don't talk to each other

Recruitment in one app, payroll in another, letters in Word and reviews in Excel. Nobody fully trusts the headcount. HR Nova.ai replaces that patchwork with one system built on one employee record.
