Talenta (operating as Mekari Talenta) is an Indonesia-based Human Capital Management (HCM) platform founded in 2014 and headquartered in Jakarta, serving 35,000+ businesses across Southeast Asia with primary operations in Indonesia and Singapore. The platform is a cloud-based, AI-centric integrated suite covering attendance management with biometric and computer-vision capabilities (face recognition, GPS geofencing, anti-spoofing Liveness Validation), payroll with regional statutory compliance (Indonesian PPh 21, BPJS, DJP Coretax e-Bupot; Singapore CPF, MOM, SHG funds), HR administration, talent acquisition via an integrated ATS, talent development (performance management and LMS), and an AI analytics layer branded Talenta AI featuring the Airene chatbot, CV scoring, resignation prediction, and automated performance review summarization.

Talenta generates revenue primarily through annual subscription SaaS contracts tiered by company size (SMB 1-300 employees, Mid-market 301-2000, Enterprise 2000+), with secondary revenue from professional services and hardware sales of Talenta Portal attendance devices. Distribution combines direct enterprise field sales with dedicated account managers, an inside sales team, a self-serve free trial at hr.talenta.co, and a multi-tier partner ecosystem including resellers, system integrators, referral partners, and financial-institution partnerships with UOB and Bank Raya. Open API integrations connect the platform to SAP, Oracle NetSuite, Odoo, Microsoft Dynamics, and the full Mekari suite (Jurnal, Qontak, Sign, Klikpajak, Expense, Flex, Pay), positioning Talenta as the HR layer within an integrated regional business software stack.
