WorkBento - Self-hosted HR and payroll with a permission-aware assistant

by•
Run employee records, attendance, leave, payroll, recruitment, projects, and CRM in a self-hosted workspace. WorkBento includes editable Python and React source, Docker deployment, and an optional AI assistant with permission-aware, read-only queries. Built for teams and developers who want to adapt their own HR workflows. Payroll configuration requires review for local rules; hosting and AI usage are separate.

Hi Product Hunt! I build SourceBento. WorkBento brings employee records, leave, attendance, payroll, recruitment, projects, and CRM into a workspace you can host and customize. One design concern is what an assistant is allowed to see. WorkBento’s optional assistant uses role/workspace permissions and read-only queries; being read-only alone would not be enough to protect HR data. This is a commercial Python + React source package with Docker deployment, not a hosted subscription or a guarantee of payroll compliance in every country. Buyers configure hosting, optional AI services, and local payroll rules. Try the sample-data demo: Source package: I would appreciate feedback on the employee/manager workflows and which permissions are hardest to explain to end users.
