Agentic AI arrives in the HR world
From answering to acting: What HRGenie Auto does
HRGenie, HBHR’ s embedded AI, has always been able to answer questions, complete tasks and tell users where things are. HRGenie Auto takes that a significant step further. When a user asks the platform something, it does not just give an answer. It takes over. It physically navigates the system in real-time, showing exactly where to go and how to get there as it does it. Users watch it happen on screen.
The implications go beyond day-today convenience. The biggest hidden cost in HR technology has never been the software itself. It is the time spent learning it. Every new starter, every system update, every process change means training, guides, walkthroughs and support calls. HRGenie Auto removes that overhead entirely. The platform becomes the teacher, guiding people through whatever they need in the moment they need it, without anyone having to step in.
HBHR, an AI-powered, all-in-one workforce management platform for HR and payroll, announces the launch of HRGenie Auto, a new Agentic AI capability that marks a significant shift in how HR technology works. At the same time, HBHR publishes new research that makes the case for that shift more urgently than ever.
Agentic AI is software that does not just respond to questions but takes action on behalf of the user. It is widely regarded as the next frontier in enterprise technology. HRGenie Auto brings that capability to HR and payroll for the first time, allowing employees and managers to simply ask the platform to do something and watch it happen in real-time.
Callum Pennington, CEO and Co-founder of HBHR, said:“ The HRGenie has always been able to answer questions, complete tasks and tell you where things are. But HRGenie Auto takes that a significant step further. Now, when you ask the platform something, it doesn’ t just give you an answer. It takes over. That might sound like a small change. It isn’ t. The biggest hidden cost in HR technology has never been the software itself, it’ s the time spent learning it. With HRGenie Auto, the platform becomes the teacher. It shows people what to do, in the moment they need it, without anyone having to step in. This is what modern HR software should look like. Less like a system you have to learn and more like a colleague who just gets things done.” x
