Every Feature Indian HR Teams Need, Built In
10 modules covering biometric attendance, GPS tracking, shift planning, overtime control, regularization, reporting, and payroll sync for Indian businesses.
Contactless, AI-Powered, On-the-Go

Field staff and remote teams clock in from approved locations only. Geo-fence radius configurable per branch, store, or client site.
WhatsApp & Mobile Marking
Mark attendance from native iOS/Android, WhatsApp, or web in one tap. Offline-first sync for low-network sites.
