What Qandle does

Qandle is a cloud-based, mobile-first Human Resource Management System (HRMS) platform headquartered in Gurgaon, India, founded in 2016. The company consolidates the full employee lifecycle — recruitment, attendance tracking, payroll, performance management, engagement, offboarding, and employee services — into a single integrated product comprising 40+ modules. Its technology stack emphasizes Indian statutory compliance (PF, ESI, TDS, professional tax) out of the box and layers AI-driven features on top of the platform: face-recognition attendance, geo-fencing and GPS-based check-ins, AI-powered resume screening, and an HR chatbot for employee self-service. The mobile app is positioned as a primary surface for both employees and managers.

Qandle operates a B2B SaaS model with annual subscriptions priced on a quote basis, tiered by employee count and module selection. It pursues a hybrid go-to-market combining direct enterprise sales for larger accounts, inside sales for mid-market, and self-serve free-trial / free-demo funnels for SMBs. Marketing relies on SEO-optimized content, an active blog, and integration partnerships with Slack and Microsoft Teams. The platform is positioned primarily for the Indian market with built-in compliance localization as its principal competitive wedge against global HR SaaS competitors.

As of 2026, Qandle operates as a subsidiary of MYND (myndsolution.com) following an acquisition. Its customer base spans 1,000+ organizations and 1.55M+ end users across 35+ industries, with named customers including Zomato, Titan, OLX, PharmEasy, Meesho, Inshorts, Cred, and Exper. Headcount remains in the 11–50 range and total disclosed equity funding is modest ($1.2M in 2018 plus non-equity accelerator participation), indicating a lean, capital-efficient operating profile.
