What Giriton Systems does

Giriton Systems (legal entity GIRITON Systems s.r.o.) is a privately held Czech SaaS company founded in 2011 and headquartered in Havířov with a contact office in Brno. The company operates a cloud-based employee attendance and HR management platform primarily serving small and medium-sized businesses in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, with a horizontal go-to-market spanning retail, manufacturing, healthcare, logistics, technology, and social services. Its platform combines the core GIRITON Attendance System and GIRITON HR System with a modular suite including Whistleblowing, Shift Planning, Project Time Tracking, Access Control, Asset Management, Fleet Management, Medical Records, Skill Management, Ticket Boards, and configurable custom agendas.

The platform is built on Microsoft Azure cloud infrastructure hosted in the EU and is accessible via web, iOS, Android, and Windows mobile apps, plus dedicated Android-based hardware terminals (7" and 10" wall-mount clocks, DA2 access terminals, fingerprint personifiers, and a long-range chip reader for vehicle barriers). Authentication supports RFID/NFC chips, QR codes, PIN codes, fingerprint biometrics, and GPS with geofence-based clock-ins. The system integrates with more than 35 payroll and HR platforms including Helios, Money S3, Pamica, Vema, Gordic, Avensio, and WinFAS, and exposes a REST API for custom integrations. An AI layer using Microsoft Azure GPAI models supports customer service automation and document data extraction (e.g., CV autofill) with mandatory human oversight.

GIRITON monetizes through a per-active-user SaaS subscription (monthly or annual, with inactive users not charged), one-time hardware sales of terminals and accessories, and professional services for implementation and on-site installation. Distribution is product-led: a 14-day free trial without credit card is paired with self-service registration, while an inside-sales team handles personalized quotes and approximately 45-minute product demonstrations. The company markets through a content-driven blog, comprehensive online help documentation, downloadable product guides, and an affiliate partnership program.
