Sense HR is a complete HR admin system, covering employee records, absence and attendance, documents, performance, and more. Unlike other HR software, Sense HR is designed for companies with busy hands-on workers.

Every contract, policy and letter, signed and stored
Draft new documents or upload your own, and store unlimited letters, contracts and policies in your modern HR system. Send documents for e-signature, see who has opened and signed each one, and give staff access to their own HR documents from anywhere via the Sense HR mobile app.

Reporting
HR reports that make an impact at board level
Report on any data in your system, including your own custom fields. You can build reports manually, or just ask AMI a question in plain English to get instant answers, hidden insights, and even board-ready HR reports complete with charts, graphs, and high-impact summaries.
Sense HR offers enterprise-grade customisation so that your HR system bends to fit your processes and not the other way round. Customise your own screens, design your own no-code workflows, and define different permission sets and templates for each role, contract type, location, team, or department.
Built for every worker, from the office to the shop floor
Employee self-service
Staff self service via phone, laptop, kiosk or badge
Staff can request holidays, report sickness, update their details, sign documents and download payslips via their own Sense HR account. Or if your busy hands-on workers don't have access to a work phone or laptop, you can even give them access via wall-mounted kiosk or the wearable Sense Badge.
Sense HR helps you verify hours worked, scans for gaps or errors, and then gets your data ready to send straight to your chosen payroll provider, while AI agents prepare and distribute payslips from a bulk upload. And for a totally seamless setup, you can run payroll through our partner PayCaptain.
Yes. Sense HR offers a free 14-day trial on the Team plan, with no card required to start. The trial covers Team's features, so anyone wanting to try Elite or Enterprise-only tools, including the AI agents, can book a demo instead.
How much does Sense HR cost?
Sense HR starts from £2 per person, per month on the Team plan, based on a minimum of 10 employees — so £20 a month for a 10-person team — with no long-term contract. Elite and Enterprise are priced per employee per month too, quoted through a conversation with the team rather than self-serve, since pricing depends on company size and setup.
What's the difference between the Team, Elite and Enterprise plans?
Team covers everyday HR on fixed, ready-to-use screens and is designed to be simple and self-serve. Elite adds custom fields and screens, timesheets, deeper reporting, workflow automation and the AI agents, for businesses that want the system to fit around them. Enterprise adds custom workflows, an open API and dedicated account management for larger or more complex organisations.
Is Sense HR designed for staff who don't work at a desk?
Yes. It's built to include people without a company laptop, a fixed desk, or easy access to a mobile phone — for example through the physical Sense Clock for time tracking, rather than assuming everyone can use an app.
Is Sense HR UK-based and GDPR compliant?
Yes. Sense HR is UK-hosted, ISO 27001 certified, and GDPR compliant.
Is my company's data used to train Sense HR's AI models?
No. Customer HR data is never used to train AI models.
