What are
AI agents?

Think of AI agents as extremely reliable digital assistants that handle repetitive HR tasks automatically.

They read requests, understand context, make decisions based on your rules, and complete actions, all without you lifting a finger. Unlike traditional software that needs constant clicking and manual input, AI agents work independently once you've shown them what to do.
