Introducing Cercli

Welcome everybody, we are happy to introduce Cercli (YC S23)

Problem

Even today, companies across MENA manage payroll, employee information, documents, onboarding checklists, and a plethora of other tasks manually. They default to spreadsheets, legacy enterprise solutions, and dated basic HR solutions. This causes an array of issues and challenges, including:

• Human error and fraud: Personal employee data is collected and managed manually on spreadsheets, email, and WhatsApp conversations with no tracking or logs.
• Weak compliance: Mistakes due to manual work may result in fines due to incorrect reporting to authorities and extend to non-renewal of operating/trade licenses for the business.
• Costly and lengthy rollout timelines: Legacy providers have steep set-up fees and take months (even years) to complete - and on top of that require consultants or 3rd party vendors to implement the system.
• Poor transparency and employee experience: Employees have little to no visibility into people policies, time off and expenses, and payroll disbursement. This means following up manually with HR over email, slack, or Whatsapp for basic queries.

And still, with NO single source of truth - “a black box”, for a company's greatest asset (and usually largest line item of spend) - its people. Isolated business tools and spreadsheets don't “speak to each other” which causes mismatches in data.

Why Cercli?

We flip this upside down. The platform has been built with design and engineering at its core - curated around our design partners and customers, with the goal of making Cercli a workplace system that feels human.
