One employee, five versions
The HR system holds one record, the attendance tracker holds another, and payroll runs off a spreadsheet someone maintains by hand. Reconciling them is a monthly job nobody wants.
Albero HRM
Your HRIS, payroll, ATS and helpdesk in one place
Albero HRM runs employees, attendance, payroll, recruitment and performance from a single secure workspace — with encryption, an immutable audit trail and role-aware access built in.

The problem
What running HR on six tools actually costs
Nobody can answer "who approved this?"
Approvals happen in email, chat and corridors. When finance or an auditor asks who signed off a salary change and when, the answer is a search through inboxes.
Compliance work starts the week before the audit
Records get reconstructed under deadline rather than captured as the work happens, so the evidence is only ever as good as somebody’s memory of it.
The platform
30 modules, one set of records
Grouped the way people work rather than the way software is usually sold. Every module reads and writes the same employee record, so nothing needs reconciling at month end.

Role-aware access
The same platform, four different products
What someone sees is decided by who they are, not by which link they were sent. Permissions carry scope as well as verbs — “view employees” means direct reports for a manager and the whole company for HR.
Admin
A client's owner. Everything HR can do, plus the plan, payment method and invoices.
HR
Full access to every people module and organisation-wide data. Deliberately no billing.
Manager
Their team, approvals and people analytics.
Employee
Self-service — payslips, leave, documents, tasks and profile.
| Capability | Admin | HR | Manager | Employee |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| People data in scope | Whole company | Whole company | Their team | Themselves |
| People modules | Team only | Self-service | ||
| Approvals | Their team | Raise only | ||
| Reports & people analytics | Their team | |||

Security & compliance
Written for the person who reviews it
Below is what is running in production today, described precisely enough to check. What is not built is listed underneath rather than left out.
AES-256-GCM encryption at rest
Aadhaar, PAN, passport, bank account, IFSC, tax identifiers, salary and medical notes are encrypted at rest. Separate encryption keys per data domain, so they rotate independently. Authenticated encryption means a tampered record fails to decrypt rather than returning wrong data.
Append-only audit trail
Every action records who, when, from which IP, which browser and device, and what changed before and after. Immutability is enforced in three independent layers: no write route exists, the ORM refuses updates and deletes, and a database trigger rejects them for any client — including one connecting directly to the database.
Redacted audit diffs
The trail records that a salary changed, never the figure — so it never becomes an unencrypted copy of protected data.
HTTPS enforced everywhere
Plain-HTTP reads are redirected; plain-HTTP writes are refused outright, because their contents already crossed the network in the clear. HSTS with a two-year max-age and preload.
Session tokens the page cannot read
Sessions live in httpOnly cookies, unreadable to page scripts, with CSRF double-submit protection on every write.
Sign-in rate limiting
Per-IP and per-account limits on authentication attempts, against brute force.
Role-based access with scope
"View employees" means direct reports for a manager and the whole company for HR — permissions carry scope, not just verbs. An access checker explains why any answer was given.
Multi-tenant isolation
A company's identity comes from the authenticated session, never from anything the browser sends. Module entitlements are per tenant, and suspending a client blocks every login immediately.
Consent-first workplace analytics
The Vision module stores mathematical face templates rather than images, requires a recorded consent per person, falls back to anonymous without one, caps retention, and audits everyone who views surveillance data.
Fails closed on insecure configuration
Production refuses to start with missing encryption keys, HTTPS disabled, or default credentials.
Not available today — on the roadmap
We hold no security certification, and we will not imply one. If any of the following is a requirement for you, it is a reason to wait rather than a reason to sign.
- SSO (SAML / OIDC)
- SCIM provisioning
- Data loss prevention
- Report watermarking
- SIEM export
- IP allowlisting
- Device trust
- Virus scanning on uploads
- Idle and absolute session timeouts
- Self-service data export, correction and deletion requests
AI assistant
It does the boring half of HR, not a chat bubble
Three concrete jobs, done against your own records. No general-purpose chatbot bolted onto a form.
Answers from your own documents
Ask what the notice period is for a band, or how many casual leaves carry forward, and the assistant answers from the policies you uploaded — not from the open internet.
Drafts the writing nobody enjoys
Job descriptions from a role brief, and review summaries from the goals and feedback already on the record. You edit rather than start from a blank page.
Surfaces anomalies before you look
Flags attendance and payroll records that break the pattern — a shift that never clocked out, a payslip that jumped without a linked change.
The assistant never sees encrypted identity fields. Aadhaar, PAN, passport, bank and tax identifiers stay encrypted and out of scope for every prompt.
Albero assistantAnswers from your policies and records
How much notice does a band L4 engineer have to serve?
Sixty days, per your Employment Policy v4 (section 9.2). Managers can approve a shorter period in writing, and that approval is recorded on the exit checklist.
Draft a job description for a senior product designer.
Drafted from your Design career ladder and the last two designer roles you posted. Ready to edit.
Illustrative exchange.

Industries
The part of HR that is different in your sector
Most of people operations is the same everywhere. These are the bits that are not, and what the platform is configured to handle.
IT & software
Engineers spread across cities and time zones, hired fast and rarely all in one office on the same day.
Manufacturing
Rotating shift rosters and overtime rules that change by plant, with contract labour alongside permanent staff.
Healthcare
Clinical credentials expire, and a nurse whose licence lapsed cannot be on the roster the next morning.
Education
Workloads and leave follow the academic year, not the financial one, across campuses that staff differently.
Retail
A seasonal ramp that doubles headcount for eight weeks, onboarded store by store and offboarded just as fast.
Logistics
Drivers and hub staff who never sign in at a desk, with attendance that has to be captured where they are.
Finance
Every change to pay or access has to be attributable, months later, to a named person and a timestamp.
Startups
One person doing HR alongside another job, who needs the whole lifecycle to work without an implementation team.
Migration & onboarding
Three steps, and no big-bang cutover
You keep running your current process until the imported data matches what you believe is true. Nothing switches over on trust.
- 01
Import your people
Bring employees, documents, leave balances and historical payroll in from spreadsheets or an export from your current HR system. We map the columns with you and show you the result before anything is committed.
- 02
Map your org structure
Set departments, locations, reporting lines, leave policies and approval chains. The organisation chart is what drives manager scope and approvals, so this is the step worth getting right.
- 03
Invite your people
Roll out to HR and managers first, then employees. Self-service, payslips and leave go live together so nobody is asked to use two systems at once.
A straightforward migration for a company under 200 people typically takes five to ten working days end to end — most of it spent agreeing policies and checking imported data, not waiting on software. Larger or multi-entity rollouts take longer, and we will give you a dated plan before you commit.

Questions
Answered as we would answer them on a call
Including the ones where the honest answer is “not yet”.
Your workspace is hosted in a single region, and we confirm which region in writing before you sign. If you have a residency requirement, raise it during the security review and we will tell you plainly whether we can meet it rather than after the contract is signed.
