We're making HR simple, smart, and impactful for Kenyan organisations.
M-Talanta was founded by a team of HR, international development and technology professionals who saw first-hand how outdated systems slow organisations down.
Why M-Talanta exists
Traditional HR systems in Kenya are outdated — built for paper trails, not for the speed modern organisations need. We saw HR teams losing hours every week to manual payroll runs, scattered spreadsheets, and approvals lost in WhatsApp threads.
Our founding team's invaluable connections, forged through networking with forward-thinking organisations across HR, development and technology, shaped a platform grounded in real, local HR problems rather than generic global templates.
Backed by years of combined expertise and a vision for digital transformation, we exist to make HR simple, smart, and impactful.
