HR technology, every morning — wired to the companies and people behind it.
Agentic AI is dominating today's HR-tech conversation, with Dayforce introducing agentic innovations spanning scheduling to payroll, Docebo expanding its workforce readiness platform with AI-powered Knowledge and Agents, and Everstage launching an AI tool that compresses days of commission work into minutes. Research from iCIMS and Kyle & Co. links AI readiness and deployment to stronger hiring outcomes, while a McKinsey analysis finds agentic AI could cut banks' transaction monitoring workload by up to 50%, underscoring the technology's growing operational footprint. On the talent and leadership front, CompTIA has appointed Casey Welch as chief product officer to guide its AI-era workforce readiness strategy, and Kraton has named Brian Rea as its new Chief Human Resources Officer.
