Employee management
Profiles, work information, bank details, documents, and the full organisation setup of companies, departments, job positions, and shifts.
Web portal + mobile app
Run your whole HR operation in one place

Role-based access means every person sees only what their job needs.

One record per employee
Every detail in a single profile
No more chasing spreadsheets. Each employee profile keeps personal, work, and bank information together — and the rest of Catant reads from it.
- Personal information — photo, contact details, address, qualification, experience, and emergency contact.
- Work information — department, job position, reporting manager, work type, shift, joining date, and salary.
- Bank information — bank name, account number, account holder, and passbook.
- Documents — request uploads, track status and expiry, and notify employees when action is needed.
