HR software for small business

Move HR and hiring out of spreadsheets and into one system

Skailer for growing companies is an HR platform that lets teams of up to 200 people keep employee records, time off, onboarding and hiring in one place. You import your spreadsheets from CSV or XLSX files, start from ready-made leave types, approval rules and a hiring pipeline, and adjust them to how you work. When a candidate is hired, their profile becomes the employee record, so nobody types the same data twice.
The problem

The spreadsheet worked at 30 people. At 120 it costs you a day a week.

Skailer changes that by keeping people, leave, onboarding and hiring in one system where each role sees only what it should.
01Employee data in five places
The master sheet, the contracts folder, the payroll export and someone's inbox disagree, and nobody knows which one is right.
02Leave tracked by hand
Requests come in through chat, balances live in a sheet, and the manager approves without seeing who else is away.
03Hiring that starts over at the offer
Candidates sit in a mailbox or a separate ATS, and the HR manager retypes every hire into the HR file.
04Onboarding from memory
Whether the contract, the laptop and the first-week plan are ready depends on who remembers.
05Salaries behind a shared link
Anyone who has the link to the sheet can see every salary in the company.

What you get

Six modules a company under 200 people uses every week

01Employee records
Profiles with work info, compensation, documents and custom fields. Changes take an effective date, so history stays intact.

03Onboarding
New hires get a limited portal before day one with only their tasks, surveys and documents to sign. Flows send the rest on schedule.
04Applicant tracking
Jobs, pipelines, scorecards, offers with approval, a career page and AI match scores against the job's requirements. Email candidates from your Gmail or Outlook.
05Roles & permissions
Built-in roles for employees, managers, team leads and admins, plus custom roles with view or edit rights per field.
06E-signature
Send contracts and policies for signature or acknowledgment to employees, with reminders and a signed PDF stored in their folder.

What is Skailer for growing companies?

Skailer for growing companies is an HR platform for teams of up to 200 people moving off spreadsheets. It keeps employee records, time off, onboarding, e-signatures and hiring in one system, so a hired candidate becomes the employee profile without retyping. Companies import their data from CSV or XLSX files and start from ready-made leave types, approval rules and a hiring pipeline. Admins switch modules such as performance reviews or surveys on when they need them, and roles control who sees salaries. Skailer doesn't run payroll and has no native mobile app.
