Do you recognize yourself?

You're not alone asking these questions

?

I wouldn't know what to say in case of an audit

An inspection, a pay dispute, an employee asking why their salary is lower — and your HR data isn't in a shape you can actually defend.

?

We handle this manually across 3 different tools

Payroll in one system, HR data in Excel, reports as scattered PDFs. Building a clean, certifiable case would take your team weeks.

?

We know 2026 is coming, but we don't know where to start

Your CHRO has heard about it, leadership too. But nobody knows exactly what needs to be prepared, or who should do it.

Your questions, our answers

Everything you need to know before joining early access.

The Directive applies to every company: mandatory salary bands in job postings, transparent pay grids, and employees' right to request comparable pay data. Reporting obligations to authorities and the 5% unjustified pay gap threshold apply only to companies with 100 or more employees — progressively: from July 2026 for 250+ employees, then in 2027 for 100–250 employees.

By joining the waitlist, you secure a guaranteed preferential rate, personalized onboarding with our team at launch, and immediate sandbox access to explore the platform with your own data. You'll also be the first to receive regulatory updates.

No, absolutely not. Cervilo connects to your existing tools (Payfit, Silae, ADP, Lucca...) via native connectors, or accepts your DSN, CSV, or Excel exports. You keep all your current tools — Cervilo simply adds the compliance layer you're missing.

The initial connection and first report typically take less than a day. Our AI automatically normalizes your data upon import, significantly reducing the usual manual work. For companies with complex or multi-entity data, our team guides you through onboarding.

Security is at the core of our architecture. All data is hosted exclusively in Europe on ISO 27001 certified servers. Upon import, your data is pseudonymized: employee identities are dissociated from salary information, and the association key remains solely in your possession. The AI only processes anonymized data.

Our model is simple and transparent: €79 base + €3 per employee per month (minimum €99/month). For companies with 250+ employees, we offer a custom Enterprise plan. Early registrants get a guaranteed preferential rate. Sign up to get your personalized pricing.
