When HR is one person
Three things that keep a solo HR person up at night
- Fear 1
I’ll drop a new hire.Every hire gets a plan, a buddy and a check-in.Set from the start date. Chased by Mello. You approve once.

The whole year
Not just week one. The whole employee year.
HR’s part: approve each playbook once. Everything on the line sends itself. Intros run every week too.
How it compounds
Culture that builds on itself
Mello, in Slack
Employees ask Mello. HR hears about the three that matter.
- Every answer names its source in the handbook, or goes to HR.
- Playbooks, buddies, check-ins and anniversaries post themselves.
- Pulse shows totals for 7 or more people. Never a name.

Try Mello
Ask it what your people ask you
It answers from the handbook with the source, or hands the question to HR.
How many vacation days do I get?
You get 20 paid vacation days a year, added each pay period from your start date1. Up to 5 unused days roll over and must be used by March 311.
Mello answers only from the Juniper Labs handbook. Questions aren’t saved.
