    Frequently asked questions

    Can I get a customer reference call before signing?

    Yes. We connect prospects on Growth or Enterprise tier with 1–2 reference customers in their industry / country / size band before signing. Typical reference call is 30 minutes, no NeuralHR.AI rep on the line. Email contact@neuralhr.ai with your shortlist criteria.

    How many customers does NeuralHR.AI have?

    NeuralHR.AI serves 200+ paying SMB and mid-market customers across UAE, Saudi Arabia, India and the wider GCC, ranging from 5 to 1,200 employees. The fastest-growing segments are Indian IT services, UAE construction, and cross-GCC services firms.

    What size of company is the typical NeuralHR.AI customer?

    Median customer is 75 employees. Distribution: 25% under 25 employees (Starter / Growth), 55% between 25–250 employees (Growth / Enterprise), 20% 250–1,200 employees (Enterprise). Above 1,200 employees we typically defer to enterprise HCM platforms (Darwinbox, Workday).

    Are these case studies anonymised?

    Yes. Customer names are anonymised by industry / country / size where the customer hasn't given on-record permission. Metrics, quotes and outcomes are real internal CRM data from 2026 Q1. We add named case studies as customers approve them — typical lag 30–60 days from request.

    What's the typical payback period customers see?

    3–5 months on labour savings alone for SMBs of 25–100 employees. Faster for high-recruitment teams (AI screening saves 30–50% of recruiter time). Slower for very small teams (under 10 employees) where labour savings are smaller in absolute terms. Use the /hrms-roi-calculator to model your own number.

    Can I share my own NeuralHR.AI story?

    Yes. We pay AED 1,500 / ₹30,000 (your choice) for an on-record case study including a 30-minute interview, a logo, and metrics we can publish. Email contact@neuralhr.ai with the subject 'Customer story'.

    Want a reference call before you sign?

    We connect Growth + Enterprise prospects with 1–2 customer references in their industry / country / size band. 30-minute call, no NeuralHR.AI rep on the line.
