Pocket HRMS starts New Year with a bang: launches India's first HRMS Copilot™

VMPL
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], January 5: Pocket HRMS, India's leading provider of cloud-based Human Resource Management Systems (HRMS) and payroll automation solutions, today announced the launch of HRMS Copilot™, an advanced AI-powered enhancement to its intelligent HR copilot. This innovation elevates the platform from a simple query responder to a strategic ally, empowering employees with seamless self-service while enabling HR teams to shift focus toward high-impact initiatives.
Previously, the Pocket HRMS chatbot efficiently addressed routine employee inquiries through the mobile app and Employee Self-Service (ESS) portal, supporting millions of interactions annually. With HRMS Copilot™, the system evolves into a proactive engagement engine, leveraging application-based intelligence to deliver context-aware, real-time insights. By integrating deeply with the HRMS core and company databases, it transcends keyword matching to provide personalized, actionable responses, reducing friction and fostering a more connected workforce while keeping data secure for the organization.
For employees, HRMS Copilot™ acts as an always available 24/7 HR advisor, granting instant access to critical information without navigating complex menus. Natural language processing allows users to pose everyday queries such as, "Can I wear casual attire on Fridays?" or "Why was my salary lower this month?" The system draws from live data, policy repositories, and payroll records to deliver precise, easy-to-understand answers, enhancing satisfaction, autonomy, and overall engagement. This self-service capability not only streamlines daily tasks but also promotes a sense of empowerment, contributing to higher retention and productivity in dynamic work environments.
Strategically, HRMS Copilot™ liberates HR professionals from administrative overload, allowing them to prioritize talent development, organizational culture, and business growth. Internal data from Pocket HRMS indicates that routine queries consume up to 40% of HR's productive time; this solution automates those interactions, enabling teams to analyze trends, design inclusive policies, and drive data-informed strategies. By automating query resolution with 24/7 availability, HR gains bandwidth for proactive initiatives like skill-building programs and diversity efforts, ultimately aligning HR functions with broader organizational objectives.
Jitendra Somani, Co-Founder of Pocket HRMS, stated: "At Pocket HRMS, our mission has always been to alleviate HR's operational burdens. HRMS Copilot™ marks a pivotal shift: from supporting HR to redefining its role as a strategic powerhouse. By reclaiming 40% of query-related time, we empower HR leaders to innovate and elevate employee experiences, setting a new standard for AI-driven HR excellence."
