HR technology, every morning — wired to the companies and people behind it.
AI investment and legal risk dominate today's HR-tech landscape: Ema has raised $77M to deploy AI employees across enterprise HR, IT, and finance, while Bullhorn's 2026 GRID Talent Trends Report finds 92% of candidates rate AI voice interviews as good as or better than human interviews — even as mounting AI hiring and layoff lawsuits are putting employers on notice.

On the solutions front, SAP has been recognized as a Leader in the inaugural Gartner Magic Quadrant for Workforce Management Technology, HireClix has expanded its Employer Brand Network with dynamic 1:1 job ad targeting, and TekStream has launched MissionTek Advisors to broaden its specialized recruiting and workforce offerings.
