Calamari

Modular leave, attendance, and core HR tracking software.

Calamari is a modular HR platform covering time-off requests, time & attendance tracking, and core HR record-keeping, with seven different ways to clock in and out. Teams pick and pay for only the modules they need, and can add scheduling and performance-review tools as add-ons.

At a glance

Who's it for?

It's for HR and operations teams that want leave management and time & attendance tracking bundled with basic core HR.

Strength

Its modular, pay-per-module pricing makes it attractive for teams that want leave and attendance tracking without buying a full HR suite.

Trade-off

There's no permanent free tier, so teams have to commit to a paid module after the 14-day trial.

When to choose it

A strong option for HR teams that want to mix and match leave, attendance, and core HR modules rather than one bundled suite.
