What is Lintelly?
Lintelly is an outsourced HR department for German companies with 10 to 150 employees that have no HR team of their own: software drafts contracts, references and deadline reminders, and a named HR lead reviews and approves everything before it reaches employees.
Lintelly combines software with people. The software prepares the routine HR work of a small company: employment contracts under the Nachweisgesetz, references, written warnings, certificates, deadline tracking and the monthly payroll input for the existing payroll provider. A dedicated HR lead checks and signs off every document, holds two fixed appointments a month and answers within one business day. Managing directors keep the decisions; each morning they receive a daily HR briefing listing what needs them, with the finished letter attached.
Lintelly works alongside an existing HR system such as Personio instead of replacing it, and payroll stays with the company's payroll office. According to the website, setup takes one week: the existing system is connected, deadlines are captured and templates are adapted to the company. Lintelly was founded by Nick Schäfer in Frankfurt am Main and works with external HR partners who act as HR leads for client companies. The website also offers around two dozen free HR calculators and generators, for example for notice periods, holiday entitlement and job ads.
Lintelly AI features and use cases
- Drafts HR documents from company templatesWhen a contract, reference or warning is due, the software writes the draft from the company's own templates and checks the mandatory details, for example under the Nachweisgesetz. Nothing goes to an employee until the HR lead has read and approved it; each approval is logged with name and date, so the company has a record if someone asks.
- Flags deadlines weeks in advanceProbation periods, fixed-term contracts, holiday forfeiture notices and the six-week threshold for offering return-to-work management (BEM) are tracked automatically. They appear in the daily HR briefing well before they expire, with both options prepared where a decision is needed, such as keeping or ending an employment during probation.
- Answers questions and prepares payroll inputManagers and employees can ask Lintelly HR questions in a chat, and the software prepares the monthly payroll input for the payroll office. Companies running their own AI assistants can connect to Lintelly via API, MCP and command line.
What sets Lintelly apart
- Service plus software rather than software alone: every document is reviewed by a named human HR lead, and if that person is away a substitute steps in.
- Public pricing: 990 euros base plus 17 euros per employee per month, a three-month pilot and monthly cancellation afterwards.
- Personnel data on servers in Germany, kept separate per company, and according to the website customer data is not used to train AI models.
Where Lintelly is strongest
Lintelly is based in Frankfurt am Main, works in German and is built for German companies: templates and deadlines follow German employment law, such as the Documentation of Employment Conditions Act (Nachweisgesetz), the BEM obligation and holiday forfeiture rules, and according to the website personnel data is stored on servers in Germany.
Questions to ask before you buy Lintelly
Lintelly is not a fit for companies that only want HR software, or for companies under about 10 employees, where a dedicated HR lead rarely pays off. Payroll, court proceedings and legal opinions are out of scope; payroll stays with the payroll office and disputes go to an employment law firm. A free 30-minute HR check by video reviews contracts and obligations first, and the result belongs to the company even if it does not continue.
