Bottom line
HRIS for growing companies, with an open API, webhooks and an agentic AI add-on called Athena. Quote-based.
Stands out for: A modern HRIS with public API docs on the Growth plan, plus webhooks and a sandbox on Enterprise.
Watch out for: No published price. Performance, AI Companion, headcount planning and DE&I insights are paid add-ons, and payroll is not included.
Overview
Humaans is an HR information system covering employee profiles, documents, absence tracking, timesheets, onboarding and offboarding, workflows, org chart and analytics. Growth includes integrations and API access with up to two custom permission roles. Enterprise adds Okta and Entra ID, SAML single sign-on, unlimited roles and custom fields, webhooks, a sandbox and a customer success manager. Athena is a separate agentic AI product for people ops.
Teams pick Humaans when they want a clean system of record that developers can extend. Integrations include Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, Okta, DocuSign, Carta, Lattice, Ashby and Greenhouse. Every plan is sales-quoted, and add-ons such as performance reviews, AI Companion, headcount and compensation planning, and DE&I analytics raise the price. Data is EU-hosted, with ISO 27001, SOC 2 and GDPR compliance.
