“Can a compliance-first Brazilian time-tracking platform become the payroll-adjacent workday OS by feeding clean hours data into ERP/payroll rails like Sankhya?”
PontoTel is a Brazilian vertical-SaaS time-tracking (ponto eletrônico) and workday management platform, founded in 2014 to modernize CLT-compliant time recording. The company is part of the Sankhya Group and integrates natively with Sankhya's Pessoas+ payroll product. Its product remains focused on time capture, anti-fraud (facial recognition, geolocation), automated overtime/night-shift calculations and collaborative period closing — it is not itself an embedded-finance operator; embedded finance would only reach its footprint through partners like Sankhya's payroll platform.
PontoTel integrates with Pessoas+ (Sankhya).
PontoTel is founded in 2014 and headquartered in São Paulo, Brazil.
