From Payroll Engine to People OS: HR’s Strategic Shift
Payroll used to be the “tail-end of HR”, with the payroll solution processing all changes from other HR systems and then running payroll. You knew your job was done if everyone got paid on time, and all reports were accepted without questions. But that has changed fundamentally.

Now that AI is automating other HR functions like recruitment, learning, and even employee engagement, payroll is emerging as the most trustworthy, real-time source of human truth in the enterprise.
