FriendHRM

FriendHRM for Startups

You have 50 things on your plate. HR administration shouldn't be one of them. FriendHRM automates the busywork so your founding team can stay laser-focused on building the product and acquiring customers — on infrastructure with tenant isolation, audit trails and controls you can inspect.

Evaluate the product and implementation scope with our team.

Challenges you might be facing

Tracking employee data in spreadsheets that are always out of date — and nobody knows which version is 'the one'

No standardized onboarding process — new hires figure things out on their own, wasting their first week

Payroll is manual, error-prone, and eats an entire day each month that founders should spend on growth

Leave tracking via email, WhatsApp, or Slack messages — with no visibility into who's off when

Compliance is an afterthought — you know you should be tracking statutory contributions but haven't set it up

You're worried about looking unprofessional to new hires because you don't have proper HR systems yet

How we support your team

Zero to Running in Days

Upload your starter employee data from a CSV, configure your leave policies, and run your first payroll in under a week. Guided setup gets you live fast, with SSO and API integrations available when you need them.

Self-Service from Day 1

Employees update their own profiles, request leave, download payslips, and complete onboarding — no HR bottleneck, no back-and-forth emails.

Transparent Per-Employee Pricing

Pay only for what you use. Per-employee monthly pricing that scales smoothly from 5 to 5,000 employees. Enterprise features like SSO, SCIM, and custom RBAC unlock as you grow.

Automated Payroll with Tax Compliance

Payroll runs on the implemented rule packs: EPF, SOCSO, EIS and PCB in Malaysia, PF/PT/TDS in India, CPF in Singapore, and the US, UK, UAE and Australian packs. The rates are provisional and expert-unverified, and the payslip says so.

Mobile-First Experience

Approve leave requests, check timesheets, and review expense claims from your phone. Works beautifully on any device, no app download required.

Built for audit from the start

Schema-per-tenant data isolation, AES-256 encryption, and immutable audit logs aren't upsells — they're built into the foundation. When your startup becomes an enterprise, your HR system is already there.
