01 · The everything app

Every HR task an employee touches. One app.

The questions that flood your HR team's inbox — "can I see my payslip?", "what's my leave balance?", "did the company match the PF?" — they all live in the employee's pocket. Self-served, instantly, no ticket.

This is the reason the typical HR generalist saves 6-8 hours a week after rolling out ESS. Not because the work disappeared, but because routine queries route themselves.

02 · Conversational HR

Ask. AI answers. In Slack, Teams, or the app.

"How many PL do I have left?" "When was my last salary revision?" "Did my Form 12BB get accepted?" Answered immediately, in the channel the employee already uses — not by an HR person rereading their inbox at 9 PM.

The AI reads your HR data — payslips, leave, attendance, documents — and responds with the source linked so the employee can verify. Manager-level questions ("how many people are on PL next week?") get manager-scoped answers.

Honest disclosure: The AI HR Assistant is part of the Premium AI Pack on Growth (~₹40/employee/month) or included on Enterprise. Standard ESS — payslips, leave requests, document vault — works on every plan.

03 · Form 12BB & tax

The form every Indian employee fills. Without leaving the app.

At the start of each FY, every employee declares their tax investments — rent receipts, 80C deductions, home loan interest, LTA, medical insurance. Most companies still collect this on paper. Or worse, a Google Form.

In hrPLANR, employees fill Form 12BB inside the app — with the right fields, validation, and document uploads where needed. The data flows straight into payroll's TDS calculation. No reconciliation, no rejected declarations on the 31st of March.

  • Structured form — all 5 sections of Form 12BB (HRA, LTA, 80C, 80D, home loan)
  • Document uploads — rent receipts, insurance premium proof, ELSS statements
  • Mid-year revision — circumstances change, declaration updates
  • Old vs new regime — employee picks; system computes both before they decide

04 · Document vault

Form 16, payslips, offer letter — always in your pocket.

The questions HR teams hate the most: "can you send me my Form 16 from FY 22-23?" The employee opens the app, taps Documents, downloads. Done.

Every payslip since they joined. Form 16 for every FY they were employed. Their offer letter. Their last salary revision. If it's their document, it's in their vault.

  • Payslips · 12 months back — older available on request
  • Form 16 · all years — Part A from TRACES, Part B from hrPLANR
  • Salary revision letters — every increment, with effective date
  • Offer letter — original signed PDF

05 · Manager surface

The same app. A different view for managers.

When the user is a manager, ESS surfaces an extra section: their team's pending leave requests, their direct reports' attendance, the 1:1s they owe. Same app, more context — approvals happen on the bus ride home, not on Monday morning at the desk.

The manager view is opt-in (some companies separate approvals from the employee app) and respects the same DPDP-compliant data boundaries — managers see what they're permitted to see, nothing more.

  • Team leave approvals — review request, see coverage, approve in two taps
  • Direct-report attendance — who's in, who's out, regularization queue
  • 1:1 reminders — for the 30/60/90 onboarding check-ins
  • Permission boundaries — manager scope only · audit-logged

ESS is the surface. The platform is the engine.

Every action in ESS — a leave request, a Form 12BB submission, a payslip view — reads or writes to the same single record HR and Payroll work from. There's no separate "employee database" to reconcile.

The HR app your team will actually open.

30-minute walkthrough — payslip, leave, Form 12BB, AI HR Assistant — with your team's data.
