Personio serves European mid-market companies where documentation obligations are real. Typally types what you say straight into Personio — hold a key, talk, let go — so you can dictate anywhere Personio lets you type.
This is a vendor guide from the makers of Typally. Anything we say about Personio is worth verifying — third-party features change without notice.None. Notes, policies and review fields are typed.
European employment law expects records. A conversation not documented on the day is a conversation that effectively did not happen, and HR teams know it while still having no time to write it up.
In practice people use it for: Policy documents, meeting notes, performance review text, job descriptions, and onboarding material.
Nothing changes inside Personio itself. Typally sits in the tray and types into the focused window:
Windows or macOS build, signed in once.
The cursor position is the whole instruction — Personio routes the keystrokes from there.
Say the whole thought, then let go. No time limit.
Employee records fall under GDPR. Audio sent to a transcription service is a processing step your data protection assessment needs to cover.
Typally types into Personio's fields in the browser and into whatever document tool you draft policies in. Its cleanup pass turns spoken explanation into something publishable, which is what makes policy writing a two-afternoon job rather than a quarterly intention.
An HR lead writes eleven outstanding policies over two afternoons by speaking them. None concerns an individual, so they are ordinary company documents, and the compliance gap that had been noted twice is closed.
Document a conversation the same day. Contemporaneous notes hold up; reconstructed ones are challenged and rightly so.
Employee records fall under GDPR. Audio sent to a transcription service is a processing step your data protection assessment needs to cover.
No. All fields are typed.
That is a question for your data protection officer. Transcription involves a third-party processor, which needs to be accounted for.
Company-level documents — policies, handbooks, job descriptions — which contain no personal data.
