About us
HR that understand the way Africa works.
Palm Access is a Human Capital Management platform built for Africa. It helps organizations run their people operations with precision in real time, and it helps African talent get seen, verified, and connected to real opportunity.
Who we are
We are an African technology company built on one conviction:
“Africa doesn't have a talent problem, it has a visibility problem.”
Too many organizations still run on paper attendance sheets, spreadsheets, and email threads.
Too many capable people have no CV, no digital profile, and no way of being found.
Palm Access exists to fix both sides of that equation.
Why we built it
Palm Access HRMS was built from firsthand observation of African businesses.
- 01
Attendance
Attendance was recorded on paper.
- 02
Leave
Leave was approved in chat threads.
- 03
Payroll
Payroll lived in spreadsheets.
- 04
Performance
Performance reviews happened irregularly, if at all.
Each habit looks small. Together they erode payroll fairness, employee trust, and compliance, and they scale faster than revenue does.
On the other side of the labor market, millions of people were learning, building, and working every day without ever entering a formal system.
Employers couldn't find them. Governments couldn't measure them.
So we decided to build infrastructure, not just another tool.
What we do
One ecosystem for the people you manage and the talent you need.
Together they form one ecosystem.
Organizations manage the people they have, and they discover the people they need.

What guides us
Innovation
We use technology to make HR think ahead, not just keep records.
Reliability
Payroll, attendance, and data have to be right every time. Your people depend on it.
Simplicity
If a system needs a training manual to approve a leave request, we haven't finished designing it.
Empowerment
We turn HR from an administrative task into a strategic advantage for both organizations and employees.
Inclusion by design
USSD support is a deliberate choice, not a workaround. Digital transformation that leaves people out is displacement.
