Project overview

Laborio.it was built to replace spreadsheets, legacy HR tools and paper documents in Italian companies. LBD led product strategy, design system and full-stack engineering to deliver a multi-module, GDPR-compliant SaaS platform with entirely EU-based infrastructure.

  • Unified operations

    Ten integrated modules — attendance, shifts, leave, documents, OTP signing, ATS, expenses and AI noticeboard — accessible from one interface.

  • Built-in compliance

    95 pre-loaded leave types, automated SDI invoicing and eIDAS-compliant electronic signatures across every document flow.

  • Mobile-first by design

    Employee app for geolocated check-ins, leave requests and digital payslips always at hand.

The challenge

Italian SMEs manage HR through fragmented tools: spreadsheets for attendance, emails for leave, PDFs for payslips. A single cloud platform was needed to cover the full HR lifecycle while respecting Italian regulations.

Fragmented tooling

Every HR process lived in a different tool, multiplying errors, reconciliation time and training costs.

Italian regulatory compliance

CCNL, GDPR, SDI, eIDAS: the platform had to handle complex legal obligations transparently for end users.

Mobile adoption

Employees — often in the field — needed to clock in, request leave and sign documents directly from their smartphones.

Our approach

We designed Laborio as a modular platform with a cloud-native architecture built for rapid onboarding and company-level customisations.

01
Product strategy and blueprint

Workshops with HR managers and business owners to map processes, regulations and roadmap priorities for each module.

02
Simplicity-driven design system

Clean, accessible interface for non-technical users: regulatory complexity stays in the engine, not in the UI.

03
Full-stack cloud-native engineering

Modular backend with REST APIs, multi-tenant management, document encryption and SDI integration for electronic invoicing.

04
Launch and continuous optimisation

30-day free trial, guided onboarding and rapid feedback cycles to evolve modules based on real company needs.

Impact delivered

Laborio.it enables Italian businesses to centralise their entire HR management in a single compliant, accessible and scalable platform.

  • Ten integrated HR modules in a single SaaS platform, from recruiting to digital payslips.
  • OTP electronic signature compliant with eIDAS and encrypted document archive with read tracking.
  • 30-day free trial with self-guided onboarding and immediate activation.
