HR Technology Conference 2026: Key Trends and Providers to Watch
Aptitude Research's review of the 2026 HR Technology Conference says agentic AI dominated the event, with vendors moving from tools that help people work to agents that work alongside them. It describes a shift in pricing from per-seat models toward usage-based pricing for platforms, agents and data access, with some vendors exploring outcome-based pricing such as hires made or hours saved. It also cites Anthropic partnerships with Workday, Greenhouse and UKG, and new candidate-fraud defenses from Greenhouse with CLEAR, Phenom and Brilliant.
