🗓️ HR & Hiring

Leave & Attendance Management

Automated leave tracking, zero confusion.

The Problem

  • Leave requests arrive via email, Slack, and verbal conversations. HR teams spend hours tracking down what was actually approved.
  • Policy violations go unnoticed — employees accidentally exceed PTO balances or request during blackout periods without anyone catching it.
  • Calendar updates are manual. Team leads don't have real-time visibility into who's out, causing scheduling conflicts.
  • Payroll notifications for unpaid leave are missed. Employees discover incorrect paychecks weeks after the fact.

What This Blueprint Does

Pat, your AI Attendance Coordinator, detects leave requests from any channel, validates against company policies in real-time, routes approvals to the right manager, syncs team calendars, and notifies payroll — eliminating leave tracking confusion forever.

  • Detects leave requests from any channel — email, Slack, HRIS portal — and creates a structured ticket automatically.
  • Validates requests against company policies in real-time: PTO balances, blackout dates, and notice period requirements.
  • Routes approvals to the right manager, syncs team calendars instantly, and notifies payroll for unpaid leave processing.
  • Maintains a live attendance dashboard with balance tracking, upcoming absences, and team availability at a glance.
