Workday introduces new AI innovations to deliver meaningful business outcomes

office

Workday, Inc. has launched AI innovations to transform how organisations hire, plan, and make decisions.

Key AI Innovations

Workday’s AI innovations are:

  • Autopilot Agents: Workday’s new autopilot capabilities allow agents to operate continuously in the background.
    • The Talent Acquisition Agent proactively monitors open positions, identifies qualified candidates, supports interview scheduling, and prepares candidate outreach for recruiter approval.
    • Enhanced Payroll, Accounting, and Deployment Agents identify payroll issues before processing, continuously test financial information to support audit readiness, and recommend relevant Workday capabilities based on customers’ existing configurations.
  • Workday Candidate Profile: Allows job seekers to save and manage their information once and reuse it when applying to companies that recruit through Workday. Applicants can access their saved information using an email address and one-time code, without creating a new account or repeatedly entering their employment history.
  • Work Intelligence: Breaks jobs into individual tasks and links them to the required skills. Leveraging Workday Skills Cloud, used by over 3,450 customers and featuring an ontology of more than 75,000 skills, this capability helps organisations determine where AI can automate or augment work and where human expertise is essential.
  • Workday Decision Intelligence: Offers HR and finance teams a unified AI-powered experience built on live, governed Workday data. Teams can ask questions in natural language, analyse business scenarios, compare options, and take action within existing permissions and approval processes.
