The All-in-One HRIS.
Now with AI across the entire employee journey.

An HRIS (Human Resource Information System) is a single platform that manages employee data and processes across the full employee lifecycle. Martian Logic is an Australian HRIS covering recruitment, onboarding, Core HR, payroll, workforce management and LMS in one system — from the first job ad to the last day of employment. It comes in two models: the all-in-one bundle, or a hybrid where you take Core HR and selected modules and keep systems you already have. Founded in 2003, it is used by mid-market organisations across Australia and New Zealand, including more than 100 independent schools.

Yes. Martian Logic includes a full payroll product with a built-in Award Interpretation Engine, Single Touch Payroll reporting, and compliance in both Australia and New Zealand. It handles any mix of hourly and salaried employees. If you would rather keep your current payroll provider, the hybrid model integrates with Aurion, Preceda, Sage MicrOpay, MYOB PayGlobal, ADP, Xero, Definitiv and KeyPay instead.

Yes — that is the hybrid model. Rather than replacing everything, you take Martian Logic Core HR and the modules you need, keep the systems that already work for you, and the two run together. Integrations are built on our next-generation integration framework, which makes connected school, health and payroll systems look and behave natively rather than like a bolted-on feed.

The majority of the time, there is no setup cost. Implementation is handled by our client success team, who configure the platform around your workflows and connect your existing systems through the integration framework. Because setup is usually included, the comparison against your current stack is a straight software-spend comparison rather than software plus a project fee.

Most organisations replace three to six separate tools when they move to Martian Logic, and some consolidate as many as ten. Typically that means an applicant tracking system (ATS), onboarding software, reference checking, police and WWCC check tracking, org chart software and staff survey tools. You end up with one platform, one employee record and one invoice — and generally more useful features than you had before, with fewer irrelevant ones.

Yes — Martian Logic is built for compliance in both markets. Payroll supports Single Touch Payroll and award interpretation, and workforce management handles multiple awards and EBAs across AU and NZ. The compliance module tracks checks, mandatory training and policy acknowledgements — Working with Children Checks, police checks, working rights and teacher accreditation — with a reminder and alert system that monitors renewal dates for the life of employment.

It covers time and attendance, timesheets and dynamic rostering across multiple awards and EBAs in Australia and New Zealand. The advanced rostering product adds roster templates, shift requirement definitions, automatic shift allocation, real-time shift costing, and shift offering and swapping — so you can see what a roster costs before you publish it.

Martian Logic serves mid-market organisations with established positions in four sectors: K-12 independent schools, health, aged care and disability services, government and enterprise. Customers include Trinity Grammar, Shore, Saint Ignatius’ College Riverview, Rosebank College, The Southport School, Camberwell Grammar, Northcott, CPL, Aegis Aged Care, Life Saving Victoria, SBS and Epson.

Yes. Martian Logic integrates with six school management systems including Veracross, Synergetic, TASS and FACTS, and with major payroll providers including Aurion, Preceda, Sage MicrOpay, MYOB PayGlobal, ADP, Xero, Definitiv and KeyPay. Integrations run on our next-generation integration framework so connected systems feel native, which means you can adopt Core HR without replacing what already works.

Martian Logic keeps every compliance record audit-ready every day rather than assembled after a notice arrives. Checks are verified at recruitment and tracked to renewal, signed contracts and approvals sit against the employee record with a full history of who approved what and when, and training certificates and policy acknowledgements are recorded automatically. When a registration review or accreditation audit lands, producing the evidence is a search rather than a scramble through inboxes and shared drives.

AI Analytics is prompt-based: you ask a question about your workforce in plain language — typed or spoken — and get the answer straight away, without building a report. A report that would normally take a while to assemble comes back in seconds, and you can ask follow-up questions to dig deeper. It also drafts job descriptions, job ads and screening questions.

Pricing is quoted per organisation and depends on two things: which configuration you choose — Recruitment + Onboarding, full Core HR, or the All-in-One with payroll, workforce management and LMS — and your headcount. Two things are worth knowing before you compare: the majority of the time there is no setup cost, and because Martian Logic replaces several existing subscriptions, most organisations weigh it against their combined current spend rather than a single line item.
