People Matters, a community for HR and Talent leaders in India and APAC, has made its debut into the SaaS space with the launch of People Matters Octopus (PMOctopus).
Octopus is an AI-enabled platform designed to serve as a unique solution navigator, simplifying the discovery and selection process of HR products from a range of service providers across India.
Octopus claims to enhance the accuracy and speed with which HR professionals can discover, evaluate, and connect with HR solutions, simplifying the complex task of finding the right HR tools.
Octopus enables the HR community to discover the latest innovations, significantly reducing search times while directly connecting users with solution providers and empowering them to meet their organisation’s unique needs more efficiently.
Commenting on the launch, Pushkaraj Bidwai, CEO of People Matters, said, “At People Matters, we understand the challenges HR leaders face in navigating a fragmented landscape of tools and solutions. Over the past 15 years, we have empowered the HR community with valuable insights and resources through our publication, digital content, research, and conferences. With the launch of Octopus, we are taking the next step in this journey to address a critical gap in the ecosystem: the need for a unified, AI-enabled navigator that simplifies access to high-quality HR solutions in one place, bringing unparalleled speed, accuracy, and precision to decision-making. This launch marks a significant milestone in our People Matters 3.0 journey, one that will accelerate our vision to bring technological innovation and AI at the forefront of HR for smarter, quicker decision-making to drive real impact.”
Currently, in beta, Octopus will continue to learn and grow even smarter as more users engage with it, continuously refining its search relevance and precision. As the platform evolves, it aims to expand to include 500+ brand-verified solution pages by next month, transforming into an extensive ecosystem of HR solutions.
