Niyuk HR

Niyuk HR combines AI-assisted recruitment with day-to-day human resources management for organizations handling hiring and workforce processes. Its functions include employee management, attendance, leave, payroll, recruitment, performance management, and HR automation. Hiring tools include AI resume screening, automated video interviews, skill-based assessments, and hiring insights.

Slack and Microsoft Teams integrations support HR notifications and workflows. The Teams app provides attendance, leave, payslips, payroll, approvals, and HR questions. Niyuk supports employees across countries and entities with configurable local policies, working hours, holidays, and payroll structures. The Enterprise plan adds LMS, OKRs and goals, expenses, performance management, meetings, assets, help desk, visitor management, shift planning, AI interviews, assessments, and sourcing. The service is available on Android, iOS, web, and as an extension. Each plan includes 20 employees, with monthly per-employee charges above that limit: Essential is ₹1,300 per month, Growth ₹1,500, and Enterprise ₹1,700. Niyuk says it uses encryption, secure storage, and access controls; attendance location data is retained for three months before permanent deletion.

Niyuk HR suits HR teams, recruiters, staffing companies, and businesses managing hiring and employee operations. Its country-specific policy and payroll settings may suit organizations with employees across countries or entities.

Niyuk HR is an HR and recruiting platform that combines AI-assisted hiring with employee administration, payroll and workforce workflows. It suits HR departments, staffing firms and growing businesses operating across countries. Its broad coverage is compelling, but teams above 20 employees need to account for an additional monthly per-person charge on every plan.

Overview

Niyuk puts recruitment and daily HR operations in one service, spanning employee records, attendance, leave, payroll, performance and automation. That combination is more relevant to organizations seeking one operating system than to companies that only need applicant tracking or onboarding.

Country-specific policies, working hours, holidays and payroll structures are configurable for employees across multiple entities. Slack and Microsoft Teams integrations can route notifications and workflows into tools employees already use. Security measures include encryption, secure storage and access controls; location data used for attendance and field verification is retained for three months before permanent deletion.

Key features

Hiring and workforce management

AI resume screening, automated video interviews, skill-based assessments and hiring insights give recruiters a structured set of evaluation tools. The platform then continues into attendance, leave, payroll, performance management and employee administration, reducing the need to move candidates between a recruiting product and a separate HR system.

Workflow automation, document collection, training content and progress reporting support repeatable employee processes. Mobile access extends those tasks beyond a desktop, while HRIS integrations provide a route to connect existing systems.

Enterprise scope and collaboration

Enterprise adds LMS, OKRs and goals, expense management, meetings, assets, help desk, visitor management and shift planning. It also includes AI interviews, assessments and sourcing. That is a substantial expansion for larger organizations, though smaller teams may pay for capabilities they do not need.

The Microsoft Teams app handles attendance, leave, payslips, payroll, approvals and HR questions inside Teams. Dedicated onboarding, live chat and priority help are useful safeguards for organizations introducing a wide HR stack rather than a single-purpose tool.

Pricing

Niyuk uses a freemium model with a free plan and paid subscriptions from ₹1,300 per month. Every plan includes 20 employees; each employee above that allowance is billed monthly at the plan's stated rate. There is no indication of an annual term or a time-limited trial in these plans, so monthly billing is the relevant commitment.

Essential is the sensible starting point for a small team that needs the core HR and hiring platform. Growth costs ₹200 more monthly before overage and is aimed at organizations that need the middle tier's additional scope. Enterprise costs ₹400 more than Essential and is the choice for businesses requiring the expanded LMS, goals, expenses, service desk, shift and AI sourcing toolkit. The free plan removes the subscription charge, but its employee cap and included functionality should be checked against operational needs before a larger rollout.

Platforms

Niyuk HR runs on Android, iOS, the web and a browser extension. That mix supports office and mobile access, with the Teams app adding an in-context option for organizations using Microsoft 365.

Who it's for

HR teams, recruitment agencies and staffing companies will benefit most from the unified hiring-to-employment workflow. Startups can begin with the free or Essential tier, while enterprises with multiple countries or entities have a reason to consider the configurable policies and Enterprise modules. A company wanting only lightweight onboarding or recruitment may find the wider HR footprint unnecessary.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Recruitment and HR in one system: AI screening and assessments connect directly with payroll, leave and employee management.
• International configuration: Country-specific policies, holidays, working hours and payroll structures support multi-entity operations.
• Useful workplace integrations: Slack and Teams notifications, plus Teams-based HR actions, reduce context switching.
• Clear small-team entry point: A free plan and 20 included employees make initial adoption less expensive.
• Defined location-data retention: Attendance and field-verification location data is deleted after three months.

Cons

• Per-employee growth cost: Every plan charges for staff beyond 20, and the rate rises from ₹65 to ₹85 per employee monthly.
• Tier differences matter: Enterprise-only modules such as LMS, expenses, shift planning and AI sourcing require the highest listed tier.
• Broad platform may be excessive: Smaller organizations seeking one narrow HR function may not use its full scope.

Alternatives

For a focused shortlist, see Employee Onboarding Software.

Whale is a freemium alternative with Android, iOS, web, extension and API access; choose it when its free allowance of 10 members, one creator, 20 Playbook items and 20 AI credits fits better than Niyuk's HR-centered model.

Boilerplate is a paid Android, iOS, web and API option for teams that prefer a paid product.

Kriatix Lead Qualification Chatbot is a paid, web and self-hosted choice with a free trial, better suited to lead qualification than full HR administration.

Teambridge Onboarding, Webonboarding and WeekOne are paid onboarding-focused alternatives.

Workelo is a paid platform with a free trial and request-a-demo pricing. Appical is a paid onboarding product with Starter and Professional plans priced from €399 and €799 per month respectively.

Verdict

Choose Niyuk HR if you want recruiting, payroll and workforce management tied together, especially across countries and entities or inside Microsoft Teams. Look elsewhere if your needs are limited to onboarding or if a workforce that quickly exceeds 20 employees makes recurring per-person charges outweigh the value of consolidation.
