About SmallHRTools
HR clarity shouldn't be a privilege of large companies.
SmallHRTools was built for founders, office managers, and solo HR people who need a real number — fast — without buying software, booking a demo, or hiring a consultant for a one-time question.
Our mission
One accurate number, in under a minute
Every calculator on this site exists because a small business owner once had to guess a statutory number, overpay a consultant, or download a five-year-old Excel file to find an answer that should be instant.
We think that's broken. So we fixed it — free, no login, India-specific formulas that are kept up to date when statutory rules change.
Why we built this
Small businesses get the worst of both worlds
Enterprise HR software is too complex and too expensive. Generic free calculators are too inaccurate or buried under ads. There was nothing in the middle built specifically for a 10-person team in India.
Wrong defaults, wrong country
Most free calculators use generic international formulas. Indian statutory rules — EPF, ESI, gratuity, professional tax — are specific and change. Generic tools get them wrong.
Gated behind signups
The decent tools make you create an account, start a trial, or book a demo. A 12-person business doesn't need a SaaS relationship — they need one number, now.
Built for enterprise scale
Tools designed for 5,000-person organizations assume dedicated HR teams, complex org charts, and multi-country payroll. That complexity just gets in the way at 20 employees.
The company behind this
Software for businesses that keep the world running
We build for businesses that don't get built for
Jopiz is a software company focused on small and medium businesses — the shops, agencies, clinics, and startups that are too small for enterprise software but too busy to be ignored.
We believe useful tools don't have to be complicated, expensive, or gated. SmallHRTools is our first public product: a free, no-friction suite of HR and payroll calculators built specifically around Indian statutory rules for teams under 50 people.
It started as an internal tool to answer recurring compliance questions without opening a spreadsheet. When we realised other small businesses had the same questions, we cleaned it up, validated the formulas, and put it online. That's Jopiz in a sentence: scratch our own itch, then share it with everyone.
How we work
Four things we'll never compromise on
01 — Always Free
Free means free. Not freemium.
Every calculator is and will remain completely free — no feature lock, no trial expiry, no upsell mid-calculation. If we build a paid product, it'll be entirely separate from what's here.
02 — Accuracy First
Statutory formulas, not approximations
We track changes to EPF rates, TDS slabs, gratuity rules, and ESI thresholds. When statutory rules change, calculators are updated before the next pay cycle — not when someone complains.
03 — No Clutter
The answer in as few clicks as possible
No pop-ups, no email walls, no retargeting on calculator pages. You open it, enter your numbers, get the answer, close it. That's the entire product experience.
04 — Built for India
India-specific, not adapted from elsewhere
PF, ESI, gratuity, professional tax — written from Indian law, not ported from a US or UK template. Every default and every edge case is calibrated for an Indian small business.
Stop guessing. Start calculating.
