AI agents for HR teams
Actionist is an AI automation tool whose agents operate the apps your team uses. From screening CVs and chasing interview slots, to ranked shortlists, onboarding packets sent before day one, and self-compiling reports.
HR coordinators lose hours every week to triage, scheduling back-and-forth, and manual checklists that should have been automated years ago.

We know how your week actually goes
- CVs shortlisted, not just collectedAn agent reads every application, scores each CV against the role criteria, and posts the ranked shortlist to Slack.
- Interview slots booked, not negotiatedAn agent finds the available interview slot, sends invites to all parties, and books the Zoom link automatically.
- New-hire packet sent on day oneWhen a start date is confirmed, an agent sends the welcome packet, queues account setup, and books first-week meetings.
- Exit checklist completed, nothing missedAn agent fires the offboarding checklist, revokes system access, and tracks equipment return so nothing slips.
- Policy handbook answers in secondsAn agent watches the HR channel for policy questions, checks the handbook, and drafts a reply for the team to approve.
- Headcount reports without the manual pullAn agent compiles leave summaries, anniversary alerts, and monthly people metrics without anyone building it by hand.
And hundreds of other tasks you do manually..
An agent can take a lot off your team's plate. Take a look below to see the time and cost you could save by adding AI agents to your HR & People team's day.
Where the hours go
CVs pile up in email while the hiring manager waits for a shortlist, and screening takes the afternoon every time a role opens.
An agent reads every application, scores CVs against the job criteria, and posts a ranked shortlist to Slack so the hiring manager gets the candidates, not the queue.
Coordinating interview slots between candidates, interviewers, and rooms burns hours of back-and-forth email.
An agent finds the available slots, sends the invite to all parties, and books the Zoom link, with a confirmation to the candidate within about a minute of a slot being agreed.
Getting a new hire set up means sending the same emails, forms, and Slack messages every time, none of it logged.
When a start date is confirmed, an agent sends the welcome packet, queues the account-setup checklist, and handles first-week scheduling, leaving HR to add the human touches.
HR spends hours each week answering the same leave and policy questions because the handbook is hard to search.
An agent watches the HR Slack channel for policy questions, checks the handbook, and drafts a reply for the team to approve, so routine questions stop pulling HR away from complex cases.
Actionist Will Automate
What one automation looks like
A week with your HR & People agents
Some of the apps for your HR & People team
Some of the apps your HR team's agent operates. Hundreds more are in the Actionist App Store.
Your Agent wakes up Automatically whenever something happens
Your agents watch the apps you already use and act the moment something happens, usually within about a minute, handle it based on your instructions, 24/7.
When a new application lands in the inbox or ATS, the agent reads the CV, scores the candidate against the role criteria, and posts a structured summary to the HR Slack channel within about a minute, so the hiring manager sees the candidates, not the queue.

You stay in control
An agent working in your systems with employee data only earns trust if you stay in control. Actionist is built so you decide what goes out, see everything it did, and own all of it.
By default the agent drafts rejection emails, welcome packets, policy replies, and offboarding notices and waits for your sign-off before anything reaches a current or future employee.
Revoking system access, closing accounts, or sending a departure notice stops for explicit approval, regardless of how much autonomy you have granted elsewhere.
Every record the agent read and every action it took is logged, so you can see exactly what happened, when, and why at any point.
It is encrypted, never used to train AI models, and if you need everything on your own infrastructure you can self-host on a VPS.
