Six people step up to the desk. Each one leaves with what they came for.

Your employees do not think in modules. They have a question, a request or a worry. Here is what each of them sees, and what your HR team sees behind the counter.

The software engineer - HR Tickets and Policy Library

His laptop allowance is missing from the payslip, again.

Requests tracked to closure, policies kept current

Anything the assistant cannot close becomes a ticket with an owner, an SLA and a history. The Policy Library keeps every handbook versioned, so answers always come from the current rule.

  • Auto-routing by topic, location and grade
  • SLA timers and reminders before breach
  • Version history and employee acknowledgements

The quiet visitor - Private Line

Waited until everyone left the floor before typing.

A confidential channel, handled only by named people

When a message touches harassment, health, a grievance or a disciplinary matter, the assistant steps out. The conversation goes to a named HR partner, visible to nobody else, with the care your POSH policy requires.

  • Never answered or summarised by AI
  • Visible only to the assigned HR partner
  • Escalation to the Internal Committee when the employee chooses

Private Line

Only your HR partner can read this

The assistant is switched off in this conversation

I need to talk to someone about how my team lead speaks to me. I don't want my manager to know.
Hi, I'm Farah from HR. Thank you for reaching out. This stays between us and the Internal Committee only if you choose to file. Can we speak tomorrow at 10 am, by call or in person?

Policy gap

88 questions on shift swaps. The Rota Policy does not say who approves swaps across departments.

Built for workplaces with long queues

Where thousands of people ask the same ten questions

Tumutulong is tuned for organisations where most employees are on shifts, on the floor or on the road, and where a 7-person HR team serves a few thousand people.

Hotels and hospitality

"Do I get a comp off for working on Diwali?"

Shift rotas, service charge, uniform and meal rules across properties.

Hospitals

"How many night shifts are left this month?"

Nursing leave windows, duty rosters and CME leave for doctors.

BPOs and contact centres

"Why was my night allowance not paid?"

Shift allowances, attendance regularisation and cab policy.

Retail chains

"Can I take leave during the sale week?"

Store-level holidays, blackout dates and incentive payouts.

Factories and plants

"When will my bonus come?"

Hindi answers on basic phones, overtime, canteen and ESI.

Mid-size and large offices

"What is the WFH rule on Fridays?"

Hybrid work, reimbursements, insurance and relocation.

Behind the counter

It answers from your rulebook, never from the internet

Every answer is built from two things: the policies your HR team has approved in the Policy Library, and the asking employee's own record from your HRMS. If neither holds the answer, the assistant says so and opens a ticket.

01

Approved policies only

Draft or expired versions are never used in answers.

02

One employee, one record

Identity is checked on every channel before personal data is read.

03

Connected to HRMS and payroll

Leave, attendance, payslips and master data stay in sync.

04

Every answer is logged

HR can see the question, the answer and the source behind it.

Questions at the desk

What HR teams ask us first

Does the AI see everyone's salary?

No. Each employee is verified on their registered phone, Teams account or work email, and the assistant reads only that employee's own records. It cannot answer a question about anyone else's salary, leave or documents, even if asked by a manager.

Who handles sensitive issues?

Always a person. Harassment, health, grievance and disciplinary matters are detected and routed to a named HR partner on the Private Line. The assistant stays out of those conversations completely.

Does it connect to our HRMS and payroll?

Yes. Tumutulong reads leave balances, attendance, payslips and employee master data from common HRMS and payroll systems, or from a scheduled file export if you run payroll in-house.

Can employees use WhatsApp?

Yes. Employees can ask on WhatsApp, Microsoft Teams, the mobile app, the web portal or email. The answer and the record are the same on every channel.

What languages does it answer in?

English and Hindi at launch, including Hindi typed in English letters. The assistant replies in the language the employee wrote in.

How long does setup take?

Most teams go live within 5 working days: upload policies on day 1, connect your HRMS by day 3, and switch on WhatsApp or Teams by day 5. Your 30-day free trial starts when you sign up.
