Department playbook

HR: AI handles the forms. People handle people.

Screening, onboarding paperwork, payroll and social-insurance drafts and policy Q&A are handled by AI employees; interviews, employee relations and people decisions stay with your HR team.

Pain points

What HR spends the day on

Admin dominates the week

Onboarding files, attendance and benefits checks every month.

Endless policy questions

The same questions, dozens of times a day.

Training never scales

Courseware, tests and records done by hand.
