● AI STORY · Engineering

Hiring is running 19 days ahead of last quarter, and Kwame carried 60% of the mobile sprint, shipping the wallet refactor 2 days early. The payments billing project hasn't had work logged against it in 8 days. Worth a check in with Ifeoma there this week.

The stack tax

The stack we replaced

Most teams pay for seven HR tools that don't talk to each other. Careersome replaces them with one connected platform. Here is the math, on average, for a 30-person team.

Converted amounts are estimates for planning. Final quotes are in your agreement.
Typical HR stack · 7 tools

NGN 645,750/mo

For a 30-person team. Plus 6 hrs/week of someone's time.
  • Standalone HRIS — profiles, docs, another login
  • Separate ATS — pipelines that never sync with HR
  • Performance tool — reviews & 1:1s in tab #3
  • Survey platform — engagement stuck in a queue
  • Payroll vendor — contracts & compliance elsewhere
  • BI add-on — dashboards nobody opens
  • The spreadsheet — still your real source of truth

One platform. Every stage.

Most HR teams use five to eight tools and still can't answer basic questions.

Careersome connects every stage in one system so your data finally tells you something useful. Click through a few of the modules below.

Plus engagement, development, succession, offboarding, and analytics, all on the same data layer. See all 12 modules →

The layer underneath Stories

See who's building what, without asking.

Most HR tools generate insights from leave records and survey scores. That's why their AI summaries feel like horoscopes. Careersome tracks activity against projects automatically, so the Stories you read on Monday come from real work, not vibes.

Live · Mobile team, this week

Kwame shipped the wallet refactor 2 days early, carrying 60% of mobile work this sprint. The payments billing project hasn't had work logged against it in 8 days. Worth a check in there.

01 — Contribution visibility

Who's working on what, live

Activity attribution from the tools your team already uses. No keylogging, no screen capture, no manual timesheets.

02 — Time per task

How long work actually takes

Per project, per task duration tracked automatically. Catch slow flows before they become missed deadlines.

AI explanations from real work data

Your Monday Stories cite real contributions, real durations, real stalls. Not a generic AI fluff layer.

Built here, not bolted on

Most HR software was built for London or San Francisco. Careersome was built in Lagos.

Careersome was designed for the real texture of running teams across Lagos, Nairobi, Accra and Johannesburg. No more spreadsheets. No more chasing managers on WhatsApp. One system, live data, and an AI that understands your context.

01 / EVERYTHING IN ONE PLACE

Everything in one place.

A candidate becomes a hire becomes a performance score becomes a comp decision, all in the same record. No CSV exports, no reconciliation.

02 / ALWAYS IN REAL TIME

Always in real time.

When a manager approves leave at 3pm, your finance team sees it at 3pm. Not Friday's export.

03 / SPOT PROBLEMS EARLY

Spot problems early.

Two people on the mobile team are trending toward flight risk. Compensation is 4.6% below market for senior roles in Lagos. You see this Monday morning, not at the exit interview with Ifeoma or Kweku.

Straight answers

The things people always ask us before they sign up.

How do I get started, is there a demo or sales call first?+
No call needed. Sign up for Careersome Light and you are inside the real product immediately, for free. Add your team, post a job, set up leave, and run actual workflows the same day. Upgrade only when you outgrow the free tier.
Do we have to roll out the whole platform at once?+
No. Careersome Light gives you the full workspace from day one, recruitment, onboarding, performance and time off all in one place. You decide which parts your team actually uses and grow into the rest at your own pace. The Monday story gets richer as more of your data flows through it.
Is Careersome built for African compliance and labour law?+
Yes. Payroll logic, leave entitlements, statutory reports and data residency are tuned for Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and South Africa, with more jurisdictions added quarterly.
How long does it take to get up and running?+
Under a week for teams up to 50. For larger orgs, we run a structured 2 to 4 week rollout with a named onboarding lead, no slide decks, just your actual data migrated alongside you.
