The office is a browser tab. HR should be too.
A team across Bengaluru, Jaipur and a few home offices, with a hybrid policy nobody wrote down and a feed that is really a chat channel. ZekoHR gives a distributed team one place for leave, documents, pay and connection, free for a year.
Up to 50 employees free for 12 months. No card, no sales call.
What distance does to HR
Whose holiday is it anyway?
Pongal in Chennai, Chhath in Patna, and the Mumbai office open on both. Holiday calendars per company or location, plus restricted holidays each person picks.
Nobody meets anyone
New joiners never see a face. A feed with posts, kudos tied to values, polls, and automatic birthday and anniversary celebrations keeps a team visible to itself.
Paperwork by courier
Signed policies and ID proofs travel by post. Document requests, uploads from any phone, verification queues and policy acknowledgements make the courier unnecessary.
Self-service from anywhere, admin from one place
Everything runs in the browser at your subdomain, mobile-first, light and dark. Employees apply, upload, acknowledge and read payslips themselves. HR runs onboarding, documents, letters and payroll centrally, and the knowledge base answers the question before it reaches the chat.
- Holiday calendars per location, restricted holidays per person
- Feed, kudos, polls and auto-celebrations for a team that never meets
- Document requests, uploads and verification from any phone
- Knowledge base with contextual help on every screen

How remote teams set it up
Locations as companies or departments
Where holidays differ, make locations companies with their own calendars. Where they do not, departments are enough.
Write the hybrid policy
Publish it as a policy, collect acknowledgements, and link the knowledge base article that explains how to apply for a home day.
Switch on the feed
Set company values for kudos, enable celebrations, and move announcements that need an acknowledgement out of chat.
When ZekoHR is not the right choice
You need to pay people outside India
Payroll is for Indian entities. Contractors abroad can be recorded; their payment happens elsewhere.
You need engagement surveys or eNPS
Polls are not a survey tool. There is no eNPS or pulse survey module.
You need a native mobile app with push notifications
The portal is mobile-first in the browser; there is no app-store app or push notifications. Email and in-app notifications are what exist.
Common questions
Can different cities have different holidays?
Yes. Each company has its own holiday calendar; where locations share an entity, restricted holidays let each person pick the regional ones.
Can people upload documents from a phone?
Yes. Drag-and-drop and phone uploads work everywhere, with a server-enforced size cap. Uploads enter the verification queue.
Is there a mobile app?
No app-store app. The portal is mobile-first and runs in any phone browser at your subdomain with nothing to install.
Does the feed replace our chat tool?
No. It is for the things chat loses: announcements with acknowledgement, kudos tied to values, polls and celebrations. Day-to-day conversation stays where it is.
