About Tempry
Hi. We're the two founders.
This is the story of why Tempry exists - and what we're trying to do differently.
Our story
It started with a spreadsheet.
One of us - Vladyslav Tkachuk - is CTO at a company of about 300 people. All time off lived in one spreadsheet, visible only to HR. How many vacation days do I have left? You asked. Leave was announced in a Slack channel - "I'm off in two weeks" - and by the time you were gone, nobody remembered. Managers had no idea who was off next week. HR spent their days being a human API to a spreadsheet.
We tried to automate around it - forms, Notion calendars, Slack bots. Each one fixed a slice, then fell apart past 30 booked vacations or turned into a chore nobody visited.
So we tried the real tools. BambooHR. Hibob. Personio. All powerful. All overkill for "who's on vacation next Tuesday?" And all $3-7 per person per month - the price of Slack or Google Workspace. Core-SaaS money for a vacation tracker.
So we did what developers do when they don't like the options. We built our own.
Tempry lives inside Slack and Google - the tools you already have open. Our goal is to waste as little of your time as possible.
That's Tempry. Dirt cheap is the motto: HR software should cost less than one hour of an engineer's time per month.

What we believe
- 1.
Software should disappear into your day.
The best HR tool is the one you forget to log into.
- 2.
Small teams deserve good tools.
Not toy software priced for hobbyists. Not enterprise software priced for enterprises.
- 3.
No surprises in pricing.
One plan, one price, no seat minimums, no "contact us" column.
- 4.
No gatekeeping.
No "talk to sales." No demos required. No "request access." Just sign up.
- 5.
We're in this for the long run.
We're not building Tempry to flip it. We're building it to keep it.
