HR technology, every morning — wired to the companies and people behind it.

Agentic AI is tightening its grip on HR workflows today, with Yellow.ai launching Nexus EDGE to resolve—rather than merely answer—employee IT, HR, and operations issues, while Gloat integrates The Josh Bersin Company's Galileo into its AI agents for enterprise HR, and Neeyamo's global payroll compliance AI advances to a third-generation multi-agent system. On the analytics front, SAP SuccessFactors gains dynamic historical headcount capabilities in Story Reports via input parameters. Meanwhile, an EEOC lawsuit settlement over inaccessible benefits platforms resulting in a $150K payout serves as a pointed reminder that AI adoption must not outpace accessibility obligations.

Gloat and The Josh Bersin Company Partner to Bring Galileo Inside Gloat AI Agents for Enterprise HR

Gloat has partnered with The Josh Bersin Company to embed the Galileo HR research corpus into Loomra, the workforce context engine underpinning Gloat's agentic HR platform — meaning Gloat's AI agents can reportedly combine Bersin advisory frameworks with live company workforce data when executing tasks.
