PagarBook is a solution that makes it easy to manage staff attendance, staff salaries, payments, and compliance. The company was founded in 2019 to help small businesses elevate how they manage HR functions.
PagarBook launched its platform with a mobile app, desktop app, staff app and a face attendance device called PB lens. These services were designed to streamline the human resource needs of businesses that are unable to implement these systems on their own. The mobile, desktop, and staff apps are centered around functionality related to attendance, payment information and even managing vendor expenses.
As they were building these services, the team realized that they needed more granular handling of location data to improve tracking job site arrival, on-shift activities, and job site departure. These detailed data points would bring deep value to companies that need to automate data capture, send notifications based on employee location, and build location-based functionality to support payments, rewards, and incentives.
In growth mode, PagarBook now has nearly 1 million SMEs on its platform operates within 650 districts in India, and supports 10 languages. The trajectory of Pagarbook is due to their approach to designing solutions for small businesses that see the importance of data transparency and digitizing staff attendance, salary calculation, and salary payouts.
PagarBook had developed apps with location-based features, but their expansion revealed new requirements. The team needed reliability at scale, precise location data, and the flexibility to build custom workflows. To achieve this, the team realized that they would need significant expertise and a comprehensive roadmap to deliver these features.
The team envisioned that location intelligence would allow them to build admin dashboards, task assignment functions, a mobile app for admins, and a mobile app for staff.
These requirements meant the team would need to leverage mobile development, mapping expertise, and cloud technologies. At this point, the team sought outside help to manage route optimization, battery management for mobile apps, and live tracking.
After considering several options, the team decided to engage HyperTrack to leverage solution engineers and a location intelligence platform with SDKs and APIs designed to automate workflows for the modern workforce.
HyperTrack SDKs and APIs power thousands of mobile apps for workers in the field. Customers use these SDKs to assign work, validate accurate payouts, and provide proof of work. Pagarbook implemented the following solution to address the gaps in the location component of their tech stack.

Together the above solutions allowed the team at PagarBook to transform their business. They expected to solve the location component of their tech stack, which would help them build better apps, and provide their customers with meaningful location data to enrich tracking and staff management features. This expectation was met and the result was even more significant.
PagarBook was able to build an advanced solution to track staff in the field. By leveraging HyperTrack's location intelligence infrastructure, PagarBook was able to expand its offerings and drive revenue. Customers of PagarBook can now subscribe to valuable features: see timelines, routes, and tasks documented at specific sites for employees.
