Consile

About the startup

Consile is an all-in-one people operations platform for growing businesses — HR, payroll, task management, attendance, and recruitment, unified in one workspace instead of five different tools. Most small teams juggle a spreadsheet for HR, a separate payroll login, tasks scattered across chat apps, and leave requests buried in WhatsApp threads. Consile replaces that entire patchwork with one connected system, so managers stop losing time every morning just to find out what's already happening on their own team. Key features: Kanban and list-based task management, real-time attendance and leave tracking with a non-self-approving approval hierarchy, a full recruitment ATS with a public careers board, configurable KPI review cycles, payroll and payslips with role-based access, a document vault, and Otto — a built-in AI assistant available on every plan. What makes Consile different: native AI agent integration via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — Consile connects directly to Claude and ChatGPT, so teams can manage tasks and pull workspace context without leaving their AI client of choice. Consile also ships with enterprise-grade security from day one (MFA, role-based access control, immutable audit logs, encrypted credential storage), priced for teams of 5-100, not enterprise budgets. Real outcomes: early users report their daily admin routine — gathering attendance, leave requests, and task status before starting real work — dropping from 10-20 minutes to under a minute once everything lives in one place. Free to start for teams up to 5 users. Individual plan at $5/month for solo operators. Professional plan at $8/user/month for growing teams. Built from Nairobi, Kenya.
