For people leaders

Lead people strategy, not paperwork

Chiefs of Staff, CPOs, and Heads of People coordinate work across six tools and 200 Slack threads. Locaxion returns the strategic half of the role.

Where time disappears

Work crowding out people strategy

Approvals

Approvals and paperwork consume the morning

Leave requests collect in Slack DMs, compensation letters span five tools, and needed contracts hide in personal Drives. Locaxion runs approvals directly in Slack, creates documents from approved templates, and stores each file on the employee record.

Reporting

Quarterly policies and reports start from scratch

Country policies sit in a manually maintained Notion doc, while quarterly reporting consumes a week across three exports. Locaxion includes regional policies ready to use and scheduled AI workflows that prepare each report so your work is review, not reconstruction.

Retention

Flight risk appears before an exit interview

When the 1:1 finally reaches the calendar, the employee may already have signed elsewhere. Locaxion identifies flight risk from signals —engagement drops, missed 1:1s, and performance shifts—so leaders can act before a resignation arrives.

Where the week comes back

The workflows people leaders rely on

  • Time-off and attendance

    Handle requests and approvals in Slack with regional policies included. Balances, accruals, and hours sync to payroll automatically without an intervening spreadsheet.

  • People directory

    Configure employee records and an org chart for dotted lines, secondary reporting, and group ownership—a source of truth shaped around your organization.

  • Documents and eSignatures

    Create contracts from employee data, route them for signature, and file them on the record. Templates adjust by region, role, and entity in minutes, not days.

  • Performance

    Run review cycles on your cadence, start calibration with the preparation already done, and surface flight risk in 1:1s instead of exit interviews.

  • People agents

    Define onboarding, recurring reports, and offboarding once, then let those workflows keep running so recurring work stays off your plate.

  • Granular permissions

    Control access by field and role, with every change captured in an activity log. Sensitive data remains visible only to people who need it.

Real-time feedback works best. Locaxion turns it into adaptable workflows, captures input in the moment, and keeps it easy to revisit in one-to-ones.

Operating comparison

A simpler operating stack with Locaxion

Current stack Locaxion
Products under contract An employee database, payroll exporter, eSignature tool, performance app, and spreadsheets between them. One product brings the work together under one bill.
Location of employee data Headcount, compensation, and signed contracts each live in a different tool. Each record has one home that every connected system reads from.
Recurring reporting Three exports are combined manually each quarter. Scheduled reports prepare themselves and arrive in Slack or your inbox.
Regional requirements Leave laws and contract rules are maintained manually in Notion. Country-specific requirements arrive preconfigured.
Access to sensitive data Each tool requires its own permission setup. Control fields such as salary by role from one place across the product.
New-hire onboarding Notion checklists and accounts created individually. The onboarding workflow begins as soon as the offer is signed.

Questions people leaders ask

Why switch after buying an HRIS?
Most HRIS products store records and permissions while leaving coordination to you. Locaxion runs approvals, document generation, pre-payroll preparation, and recurring reports. When the week goes to chasing instead of deciding, the switch pays back quickly.
How does migration work with years of records?
Import in bulk through CSV or directly from the current system. Records, org chart, leave balances, and signed documents transfer cleanly. Cutover takes days, not quarters, and the source system can remain a read-only reference as long as needed.
Which tools does Locaxion replace?
Locaxion replaces the HRIS, leave and attendance tool, eSignature product, performance app, and connecting spreadsheets. It integrates with payroll, ATS, and Google Workspace rather than replacing them, consolidating the stack into one product.
Will employees adopt a Slack-first workflow?
The team already works in Slack, so booking leave or asking about policy without another tab follows the easiest path. The web app remains available whenever employees prefer it, and nobody is forced into Slack.
Can Locaxion run complex multi-rater, calibration, and compensation cycles?
Multi-rater, peer, manager, and self reviews are built in. Calibration surfaces outliers and suggests moves, while compensation letters generate from cycle output and are signed in the same flow—without separate performance or compensation tools.
Can I create custom reports?
Yes. The queryable data model and AI workflow layer create and schedule recurring reports for headcount by department, leave by region, contract status, or anything you describe. Results arrive in Slack, your inbox, or your warehouse.
