Paygaps.de is web-based software for German HR and payroll teams evaluating roles and documenting equal pay. It calculates adjusted and unadjusted pay gaps by role and comparison group, with alerts at the 5% threshold. Role evaluations use competence, demands, responsibility, and working conditions; users can set work-related sub-criteria and weights. The software handles employee information requests with deadline monitoring and PDF replies, and produces pay reports for PDF export. Compensation tools include salary bands, job architecture, a hiring check, and a workflow for compensation adjustments. Integrations include DATEV, CSV/Excel, Personio, Sage HR, Workday, and SAP SuccessFactors; other systems can be connected on request from Business. DATEV supplies monthly values, while other HR integrations supply current-state data, and integration providers may charge fees. SaaS data is stored in Frankfurt am Main. Plans start at €249 a month for Starter, which includes up to 250 employees and 2 user accounts. A 14-day trial requires no payment details and ends without converting to a paid contract.
