Tako
Tako builds AI agents that automate payroll, HR and labour law compliance for Brazilian companies, integrating with eSocial and enterprise systems like SAP, Oracle and TOTVS.
Tako is an AI-powered platform that automates payroll and people operations for Brazilian companies, using intelligent agents to handle the employee journey from hiring and onboarding through payroll processing, time off management, terminations and benefits administration. Founded in 2022, the company is headquartered in São Paulo, with an office in San Francisco, and has raised $31.1M in total funding.
The platform rests on technical work spanning AI agents, natural language and language models trained on Brazilian labour laws, and compliance automation. Its products include Tako Payroll & People Ops, Tako Recruiter for hiring workflows, and Tako Legal, which supports labour law compliance. The engineering challenge is one of precision and deterministic execution: applying model-driven systems to a domain governed by detailed statutory rules, where errors carry regulatory consequences.
Tako integrates natively with eSocial, the Brazilian government's employment reporting system, and with more than 15 enterprise platforms including SAP, Oracle and TOTVS. This allows the company to serve large Brazilian employers modernising HR operations without replacing their existing infrastructure. Tako describes its mission as removing the bureaucratic complexity that drains resources from Brazil's economy.
