The problem it solves

Calculating payroll deductions from attendance records every month means cross-checking hours, absences, and salary rates by hand for every employee. It's tedious and easy to make a mistake that affects someone's paycheck. Then you still have to write and send each employee their summary.

Who it fits

An HR or payroll team that processes monthly attendance-based salary deductions.

How it works

  1. On a schedule, the system pulls attendance logs and salary details from Google Sheets
  2. It calculates hours worked, missing hours, and absent days for each employee
  3. It applies the deduction formula to find each employee's final salary
  4. AI writes a professional summary paragraph for each employee's report
  5. Each employee receives a personalized email with their salary and attendance summary
What you get

Payslips employees never have to ask about

Attendance data turns into an accurate deduction calculation and a clear monthly summary emailed straight to each employee.

What you get

A completed payroll deduction report and a personalized email sent to every employee.

What you need

A Google Sheets account, a Gmail account, and an OpenAI API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
