The first internal-testing cohort for the next pPULSE ATS release and the refreshed HRMS started in January 2026. Engineering owns build and integration coverage; the customer success team runs end-to-end user-flow scenarios drawn from real customer playbooks. The goal of this round is to harden every flow before any external customer touches it.
What is in scope
HRMS coverage runs the full payroll calculation surface: PF and ESIC contributions, professional tax across the 28 states that levy it, TDS for both old and new regime (with 80C, 80D, HRA, NPS, and gratuity calculation), bonus, leave encashment, and full and final settlement. Attendance edge cases (overtime, regularisation, multi-shift rotations) are tested against synthetic and de-identified historical datasets.
ATS coverage is the hiring loop end to end: AI screening of inbound applications, structured interview kits, custom screening parameters, and one-click posting to LinkedIn, Naukri, and Indeed. Offer-letter generation and OTP-verified e-signature is covered too.
What is not in this release
To set expectations cleanly: this round does not include features that are still on the roadmap. Specifically, field-level encryption at rest for sensitive identifiers, SOC 2 and ISO 27001, two-factor authentication, account lockout, Aadhaar e-Sign and DigiLocker, and DPDP automated right-to-be-forgotten endpoints are out of scope here. They remain on the published roadmap.
Next steps
After internal hardening, we move to a closed pilot in May 2026 with selected design partners across manufacturing, retail, technology, healthcare, and professional services. General availability is targeted for Q3 2026 and depends on pilot feedback.
