AKAI

AKAI

Akai helps HR and payroll teams spend less time on routine administration and more time supporting employees. Developed by Deel, Akai has already been used internally to streamline operations for a workforce of more than 7,000 employees.

Akai can coordinate recurring tasks across the systems teams already use, from onboarding and employee, record updates to payroll preparation, approvals, and common employee questions. By reducing manual handoffs and follow-ups, it helps make everyday processes more consistent and easier to manage.

Much of HR and payroll work happens between systems: information needs to be updated, steps completed in the right order, and exceptions flagged for review. Akai helps bring those tasks together, while keeping people involved where judgment or approval is needed.

For HR and payroll professionals, that means fewer repetitive tasks competing for time and more opportunity to focus on employee experience, policy, and higher-value work. Teams can start with the workflows that cause the most friction and expand from there, improving day-to-day operations at a pace that works for them.
