If your employee details are spread across spreadsheets, emails and disconnected apps, Breathe brings them together. It's a UK HR platform launched in 2012 for small and medium-sized businesses. More than 17,000 of them use it, along with over 1,000 UK HR consultancies.
Three everyday HR problems Breathe fixes
Information everywhere: one central, accurate record for every employee.
Endless chasing: staff book leave, sign documents electronically and follow shared workflows.
A small HR team: start with the essentials and add more as you grow.
The essentials: Core HR
Store records and documents securely, manage holiday and leave, track sickness and absence, and let staff update their own details. Collect e-signatures, set goals, run one-to-ones and reviews, and spot trends with built-in reports.
Optional extras
Rota, Time and Attendance: plan shifts and track hours
Expenses: claims, receipts and manager sign-off
Recruitment: advertise roles and follow each candidate
Health and Safety: risk assessments, incidents and compliance evidence
e-Learning: assign UK-specific courses and see who's completed what
Breathe is also building an AI Assistant to answer HR and policy questions, and plans to launch payroll in late 2026.
