The tech stack within staffing is changing rapidly. From light industrial and retail to healthcare and hospitality, staffing firms are rethinking how they sell, recruit, match, and retain talent. These changes are in response to candidate demands, customer expectations, and competitive pressure. Irrespective of the impetus, tech teams are learning that efficiency and scalability can be achieved by adding AI agents to their tech stack.

What are AI agents?

This definition from SIA analyst Oliver Eichenberger clarifies how AI agents impact critical workflows in the enterprise:

Systems that perceive inputs, make decisions and take actions, ranging from simple, rules-based programs and recommendation engines to chatbots. The new generation of AI agents are enhanced with natural language reasoning, multistep planning and API interfaces.

How are AI agents used in staffing?

AI agents are used in staffing in many ways. Primarily, they are used in the front office: at the point of posting jobs, identifying and vetting talent, matching talent with relevant roles, and ultimately placing candidates in positions. The use of AI in the recruitment process is proven and has been used for the past 1-2 years to accelerate hires across roles.

Increasingly, staffing companies are using AI beyond the recruitment process. Companies are using AI to communicate with workers, streamline feedback, and automate various on-the-job processes. Staffing ops teams are constantly pursuing solutions to challenges related to time and attendance, fast pay, and accurate billing. When there are breakdowns in any of these categories, staffing companies incur unnecessary costs and drains on support teams.

How are HyperTrack AI agents used by staffing companies?

HyperTrack AI agents are instrumental in streamlining both pay and billing processes for staffing companies. By using HyperTrack's Closeout Agent, ops teams can automate the handling of key exceptions. Whether teams seek to predict and mitigate late arrivals, no-shows, or missing timesheet data, HyperTrack AI agents can function as a digital worker that sits in every shift to ensure the optimal outcome.

HyperTrack's Closeout Agent talks to systems, workers, and ops teams to flag exceptions and resolve issues via SMS. When it encounters a matter that cannot be resolved in an automated fashion, the agent engages ops teams to handle it directly. This greatly reduces impact to support teams and allows workers to transparently submit timesheets and receive fast payouts.
