About Humaans
Humaans is a commercial HRIS aimed at growing companies, including those with employees in several countries. It acts as the system of record for people data, covering employee profiles, documents, onboarding and time off, and it connects HR information with finance and planning, and with IT management such as access and security.
The product areas include people operations, workflow automation to cut admin work, requests and approvals, absence management, timesheets for compliance, performance reviews, employee engagement surveys, and people analytics. An AI Companion answers employee questions, and the vendor also offers AI agents that carry out HR admin tasks, including on top of an existing HRIS.
Humaans is delivered as a hosted service and is sold through demos, with published plans and pricing on a separate page. It is not open-source software and is not designed for self-hosting.
