Company Background Information

Overview
Cercli (YC S23) is the modern payroll and employee data platform for the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). 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, causing an array of issues and challenges, including human error and fraud, weak compliance, poor transparency, and more.
