PeopleStack AI Payroll, HR and Performance Software
Run accurate payroll, stay compliant, review your people and answer their questions without a single email. Built for Indian businesses, PeopleStack covers PF, ESI, TDS, Form 16 and 12BA, full and final settlement, appraisals, employee self-service and a mobile app, with an AI assistant your employees can simply ask.
Payroll & Statutory Compliance
Live ModuleAI Payroll Software for Indian Businesses
PeopleStack automates the entire payroll cycle, salary structures, earnings, deductions and arrears, with PF, ESI, Professional Tax and TDS computed automatically on every run.
Generate Form 16, Form 12BA and TDS challans, process full & final settlements, and let AI catch payroll anomalies before they reach your employees.
Automated Payroll Processing
Configurable salary structures, earnings, deductions and arrears. Run accurate payroll for the whole organization in a few clicks, every cycle.
Statutory Compliance Built-In
PF, ESI, Professional Tax and TDS are computed automatically with up-to-date slabs, keeping every payroll run compliant and audit-ready.
Income Tax, Form 16 & 12BA
Tax computed under old and new regimes, with one-click generation of Form 16 and Form 12BA (perquisites) for every employee.
TDS Challans & Reconciliation
Generate, track and reconcile TDS challans with payroll data, eliminating manual spreadsheets and quarterly filing headaches.
Full & Final Settlement
Automated FnF: prorated salary, loan recovery, leave encashment and gratuity calculated together so exits are processed accurately and on time.
AI Payroll Validation
AI checks every run for anomalies: unusual salary changes, duplicate payments or compliance mismatches are flagged before payroll is finalized.
HR & Employee Self-Service
Live ModuleEmpower Your Workforce End to End
PeopleStack gives every employee a secure self-service portal for payslips, tax declarations, leave, timesheets and loan requests, reducing HR back-and-forth.
Loans & advances, timesheets, leave and employee records are all integrated with payroll, so data is entered once and flows everywhere it's needed.
Employee Self-Service Portal
Employees download payslips, submit tax declarations and proofs, and update personal details from a secure ESS portal, cutting down routine HR queries.
Loans & Advances
Issue loans and salary advances with flexible schedules and automatic recovery through payroll, fully tracked with outstanding balances.
Timesheets & Attendance
Weekly timesheets and attendance capture flow straight into payroll, so hours, overtime and leave are reflected without re-keying data.
Leave Management
Configurable leave policies, balances and approval workflows, with leave encashment and loss-of-pay handled directly in payroll.
Employee Records & Documents
A single source of truth for employee master data, salary history, statutory IDs and documents, securely stored and easy to retrieve.
Reports & Payroll Journals
Payroll registers, statutory reports and accounting journals are generated automatically, with AI natural-language queries for instant insights.
Performance & Appraisal
Live ModuleGoals, Reviews and Ratings, Alongside Payroll
PeopleStack runs performance reviews on the same platform as your payroll and HR records: goals and KPIs, scheduled review cycles, self, manager and peer reviews, rating normalisation and appraisal letters.
- Step 1
Goals & KPIs
Set goals at company, team and individual level with weightings and review periods that match how your organisation actually works.
- Step 2
Review Cycles
Annual, half yearly or probation reviews with configurable forms, rating scales and approval chains, run on a schedule rather than chased by email.
- Step 3
Self, Manager & Peer Review
Employees rate themselves, managers respond, and peer or skip level feedback can be added where your process calls for it.
- Step 4
Ratings & Normalisation
Apply a rating distribution across a team or department so the final numbers hold up when finance asks why the budget moved.
- Step 5
Appraisal Letters
Generate and release appraisal letters from the system with the approved figures.
AI Assistant
Live ModuleYour Employees Stop Emailing HR and Just Ask
The questions that fill an HR inbox are almost always the same ones. Why is my take home lower this month. How much leave do I have left. When will Form 16 be ready. Each one costs a person ten minutes and a day of waiting.
The PeopleStack assistant answers them from the employee's own payroll and HR data, inside the app or on the web, in seconds. It is not a chatbot bolted on to a help page, it reads the same records that produced the payslip, so the answer it gives is the answer HR would have given.
Ask About Your Payslip
Why take home changed, what a deduction is, how an arrear was calculated, answered from the employee's own payroll run rather than a generic article.
Leave & Attendance Answers
Balances, accruals, pending approvals and loss of pay, answered instantly without opening a single report.
Policy Questions
Ask what the notice period is, how many days of paternity leave apply, or what the loan policy allows, answered from your uploaded policy documents.
Answers HR Can See
Every conversation is visible to HR, so you know what people are actually asking and where the policy is unclear.
Mobile App
Live ModuleHR Operations, End to End, From a Phone
Most of your workforce does not sit at a desk. Shop floor staff, field teams and site engineers need a payslip and a leave approval more than they need a portal login, and a web only HR system quietly pushes all of that back onto HR.
The PeopleStack mobile app gives every employee payslips, leave, attendance, declarations and the AI assistant on their own phone, and gives managers approvals they can clear between meetings. It is the same data as the web platform, not a cut down version of it.
Available on Android.
- Payslips & Tax DocumentsDownload payslips, Form 16 and tax statements from the phone, with no request to HR and no waiting for an email.
- Leave & AttendanceApply for leave, check balances and mark attendance, with everything flowing straight into the payroll run.
- Manager ApprovalsLeave, timesheets, loans and expense approvals cleared from the phone, so nothing waits for a manager to reach a laptop.
- Tax Declarations & ProofsSubmit declarations and upload proof documents by photographing them, which is how most people actually have their proofs.
- Loans & AdvancesRaise a request, see the outstanding balance and track recovery through payroll without asking anyone.
- The Assistant, In Your PocketThe same AI assistant on the phone, so the question gets asked when the employee thinks of it rather than never.

Yes, on Android. Employees can download payslips and Form 16, apply for leave, check balances, mark attendance, submit tax declarations with photographed proofs, and raise loan requests.
