Mercans, a global leader in payroll technology, has announced the launch of its Enhanced Payroll Validation with AI Insights, setting a new benchmark in payroll accuracy, compliance, and efficiency. The company becomes the first payroll provider worldwide to integrate AI-driven validation at scale—delivering the innovation at no additional cost to its clients.
Unlike many theoretical discussions around AI in payroll, Mercans has moved to execution with tangible, scalable applications. The new validation system blends AI intelligence with deterministic rule engines, enabling payroll teams to detect anomalies, gain actionable insights, and streamline compliance reviews.
The solution is designed to operate at two critical stages of the payroll cycle:
Pre-run validation (input checks) – to ensure data accuracy before processing.
Post-run validation (output checks) – to confirm precision and compliance after payroll execution.

By combining traditional rules with AI-powered enrichment, Mercans delivers transparent, human-readable insights instead of complex error codes. The system provides context and recommended next steps, helping clients reduce review time and improve payroll confidence.
Mercans emphasized that data security and compliance are built into the solution by design. The system only processes anonymized employee identifiers and anomaly data, excluding all personally identifiable information (PII). Automated scrubbing further ensures sensitive information is never exposed.
“Our goal has always been to take AI beyond promises and into real-world use cases that create measurable impact,” said Oleg Denysenko, Deputy Head of Engineering at Mercans. “Enhanced Payroll Validation is more than a feature—it represents the future direction of payroll, turning it into a strategic advantage for businesses.”
AI-First Approach: Embeds artificial intelligence across the payroll lifecycle for anomaly detection, enriched insights, and compliance assurance.
Client Value at No Extra Cost: Advanced AI functionality is delivered without additional fees, reflecting Mercans’ customer-first commitment.
Continuous Innovation: Part of a rapid-release roadmap that will bring further AI-driven automation, intelligence, and compliance enhancements.
With this launch, Mercans continues to push payroll technology beyond operational execution, positioning it as a strategic enabler of accuracy, security, and business value.
