Onboard

Day one, ready. Sorted before day one.

Contracts generated and signed, documents collected and chased, statutory registration handled, and a checklist that tells three departments what they owe the new starter, all before their first morning.

No card required · Free migration · Live in under a week

A new employee on their first day
Digital contracts

Generate, sign and store, with a full audit trail.

Document collection

ID, KRA PIN, NSSF and SHIF, requested and chased.

Statutory registration

Registered correctly from the first payroll run.

Onboarding checklists

Due-dated tasks across HR, IT and the line manager.

Contracts and signatures

Send, sign and store, from anywhere.

Generate a contract from your own templates, route it for multi-party signing, and store it against the employee record permanently. Every signature carries a timestamp and IP audit trail, and version history lets you compare and restore in one click.

Permanent-delete safeguards apply across every module. Nobody removes an employment document by accident.

Contract lifecycle

Never miss a renewal again.

A status dashboard shows Active, Draft, Expired and Terminated at a glance, and a nightly job expires lapsed contracts automatically so the numbers are true without anyone maintaining them.

Tiered alerts at 90, 30 and 7 days go to both HR and the employee, with a guided renewal flow and digital signing at the end of it. Fixed-term contracts stop becoming an awkward conversation held three weeks late.

Documents and day one

One reliable list, every time.

Reusable onboarding templates assign due-dated tasks across HR, IT and the line manager, with real-time progress and overdue-task alerts. ID, KRA PIN, NSSF and SHIF numbers, certificates and bank details are requested and chased automatically.

Probation dates are flagged before they pass, with a review prompt to the manager, rather than discovered in month seven.

Questions

Frequently asked questions.

Do new starters fill in their own details?

Yes. Every new hire gets an email invitation to their own account, where they complete their profile, upload documents and sign what needs signing. HR reviews rather than types.

Are the e-signatures legally binding?

The workflow captures signer identity, timestamp and IP address for every party, and stores the signed document with full version history. Share the audit trail with your legal advisers to confirm it meets your requirements.

Can we use our own contract templates?

Yes. Templates are yours, with dynamic placeholders for names, roles, salaries, dates and terms. Most clients migrate their existing templates during setup.

What about fixed-term and casual contracts?

Handled, including the different statutory treatment each attracts. Expiry alerts run at 90, 30 and 7 days, and a nightly job keeps every contract status accurate without manual effort.

How long does onboarding typically take?

Most clients get a new starter fully onboarded in under two days from offer acceptance. The starter fills in their own details online, documents are e-signed before day one, and statutory registration begins automatically. On the first day, the employee is in the system, on payroll, and ready to work.

Can we track onboarding progress across departments?

Yes. A dashboard shows every new starter and where they are in the process, by department. You see who has completed their profile, who has signed their contract, and who is still missing documents, so nothing falls through the cracks before day one.

Does it handle probation tracking?

Yes. Probation periods are set per role or per contract type, and the system flags 30 days before probation ends. The line manager gets a prompt to review, and the outcome, confirmation, extension or exit, is recorded with supporting notes.
