Sloneek

What is Sloneek?

Sloneek is a modular HR system that keeps employee records, absences, attendance, performance reviews, hiring and onboarding in one place, with an AI agent that acts on typed requests. It targets European companies from startups to multi-entity groups.

You choose the packages you need, and the platform stores records, approvals and documents for HR teams, managers and staff. The company says it offers more than 100 features across six areas: core HR, time management, performance, people analytics, hiring and onboarding, and payroll and finance. Staff reach the same data through web and mobile apps, so leave requests and approvals do not depend on a desk.

Sloneek has Czech and Slovak roots, is reported to date from 2019 and lists a London office. In June 2026 it was reported to have raised about $6M, with Filip Lukáč as chief executive and co-founder. Its homepage names Volvo, Lindt, Knight Frank and Sky among its customers, and its site and trial sign-up were reachable in our October 2026 review.

Key Features

Absence and attendance handling is Sloneek’s everyday workhorse, while Sloneek Intelligence adds a typed-command layer on top of the whole suite.

• Core HR records: Employee files, e-signed documents, asset tracking and an org chart sit in one database. The module also covers whistleblowing and holding structures, so a group with several companies can manage them from one account.
• Time management: Staff request leave, record attendance and log timesheets against clients or projects. G2’s listing notes public holiday insights based on each employee’s location, which helps teams spread across several countries.
• Performance management: Reviews, 360-degree feedback, competency evaluation, KPIs and OKRs are handled in one module. Managers can run review cycles, compare ratings and track goals over time without buying a separate performance tool.
• Hiring and onboarding: An applicant tracking system feeds into pre-boarding, onboarding and offboarding workflows. Checklists assign tasks to HR, IT and managers, so new starters and leavers follow the same steps every time.
• Sloneek Intelligence: This AI agent carries out HR tasks from plain requests such as starting an exit interview or creating an absence. It draws on the org chart, policies and calendars, and is currently offered through early access.
• People analytics and surveys: Custom reports with preset charts summarise headcount, absence and engagement data. AI-assisted pulse surveys collect anonymous feedback, giving HR a regular read on morale alongside the hard numbers.

Pros

Support quality is a consistent reason buyers pick Sloneek, with Capterra reviewers scoring customer service 4.9 out of 5 and G2 naming it Best Support for small businesses.

• Broad HR coverage: Records, time, performance, hiring and payroll support fit in one product. Growing firms can replace several spreadsheets and point tools with a single login for staff.
• Modular buying: You pay per active user only for the packages you switch on. Packages can be added or dropped later, so costs can follow the company’s needs.
• Strong user ratings: G2 shows 4.7 out of 5 from 86 reviews and Capterra 4.6 from 17 reviews. Reviewers often mention an easy interface that needs little training.
• European focus: GDPR compliance, Bureau Veritas certification and five official interface languages suit central European teams. Multi-country firms also benefit from location-based holiday handling for each employee.
• Trial without a card: The 14-day trial needs no payment details. HR teams can test absence rules, approvals and the mobile app with real colleagues before speaking to sales.

Cons

Quote-only pricing is Sloneek’s biggest hurdle, because the official pricing page lists packages but no rates, which slows side-by-side budgeting.

• No public prices: Costs come from a quote per active user, and figures elsewhere conflict. Buyers comparing with Factorial or BambooHR need a sales call before they can model costs.
• AI agent still early: Sloneek Intelligence is offered as early access rather than a general release. Teams should not plan core processes around it until it is fully available on their account.
• Short integration list: Native connectors cover Google Workspace, Microsoft Active Directory, Jira and Slack. Other systems, such as accounting or local payroll software, rely on the open API and developer time.
• Bulk actions are limited: One Capterra reviewer reports approving absences person by person rather than as a group. Other reviewers mention occasional bugs and limits on document upload capacity.
• Regional payroll depth: Payroll and expense features exist, but coverage may vary by country. Firms outside Sloneek’s core markets should confirm local payroll rules before relying on it.

Who is Using Sloneek?

Mid-sized European employers form Sloneek’s main user base, with Capterra reviewers describing companies of roughly 50 to 100 or more staff, plus nonprofits.

• HR managers: HR teams use it to replace spreadsheets and paper forms. They keep records, contracts and absence balances in one audited system.
• Team leaders: Line managers approve leave, check attendance and run reviews from the mobile app. This keeps routine approvals moving when they are away from a desk.
• Growing startups: Fast-hiring companies use the ATS and onboarding checklists to add structure. New starters get the same pre-boarding steps however quickly the team grows.
• Multi-entity groups: Holdings with several companies manage them together under one account. Distributed teams also use location-based holiday data across countries.

Pricing

Sloneek charges per active user each month for the modules you choose, with exact rates given by quote (official pricing page, October 2026).

A Sloneek blog post puts typical cost near 11 EUR per user, while one third-party site lists $4 and $6 tiers that the official page does not show.

Disclaimer: module prices depend on headcount and packages, so get a written quote before signing.

What Makes Sloneek Unique?

An AI agent wired into every HR module is Sloneek’s clearest differentiator. Instead of a help chatbot that explains where buttons are, Sloneek Intelligence acts on records, absences and surveys directly, so a routine request becomes one typed instruction.

Its pricing model also differs from many rivals. Billing counts only active users who can log in, and packages can be switched on or off, which suits companies with seasonal staff or changing needs.

Compatibilities and Integrations

Sloneek runs on the web with iOS and Android apps, and connects natively to a short list of identity and work tools plus an open API.

• Platforms: Web, with iOS and Android apps for staff and managers.
• Identity and calendars: Google Workspace, Google Calendar and Microsoft Active Directory.
• Work tools: Jira and Slack, including absence notifications.
• API: An open API supports custom links to payroll or accounting systems.
• Languages: English, Czech, Polish, Slovak and Italian on the official site; G2 lists further languages.

Sloneek Tutorials

A working trial setup takes about six steps, and G2 reports an average full implementation time of around one month.

1. Start the 14-day trial on the Sloneek website.
2. Import employees and build the org chart.
3. Set absence types, holiday rules and approval chains.
4. Connect Google Workspace or Active Directory for sign-in.
5. Install the mobile app and invite staff to request leave.
6. Request early access to Sloneek Intelligence and try a simple command.

How We Rated It

Sloneek earns 4.0 out of 5, driven by wide functionality, good support and an EU privacy focus, held back by quote-only pricing and few native integrations.

Summary

Sloneek suits European small and mid-sized companies that want one HR system with an AI agent built in. Its module range, mobile apps and well-reviewed support make it a credible alternative to Personio or HiBob. The main drawback is hidden pricing, which makes budgeting harder, and the AI agent is still in early access. Bulk approvals and payroll depth are worth testing for your country. Use the trial to run a month of absence approvals, then request a quote for only the modules you used.
