AI in HR & People

Let the policies answer for themselves.

HR spends its days on questions the handbook already answers and CVs that were never a fit for the role. We put an AI HR assistant and CV screening into how your people team already works, so employees get instant answers, shortlists come with reasons, and onboarding runs itself. Built for how companies in Lebanon, the UAE and Saudi Arabia actually hire and support their teams, in Arabic and English.

Grounded in real adoption work: we run a multi-department AI program inside a large Lebanese company with 1,000+ employees, from training through department-level tools.

Grounded answer

You have 11 days of annual leave left, and 3 of them expire on 31 December. Request them under Leave in the portal and your manager is notified.

The handbook, answering

Employees get answers, HR gets its time back.

Leave balances, policies, letters and how-do-I questions handled instantly by an assistant that knows your actual handbook, in Arabic and English. The routine asks stop landing on HR, so the team handles the sensitive cases that genuinely need a person.

Hiring without the pile

CVs read, scored and shortlisted with reasons.

Every incoming CV read and scored against the actual role, not a keyword filter, and shortlisted with a plain reason for each pick. Every candidate gets a reply, and your team only reads the ones worth reading.

From one decision

Onboarding runs itself from “hired”.

One “hired” decision triggers the contract, IT accounts, equipment request and first-week schedule, with the new manager looped in. Nothing falls through the cracks, and the assistant chases anything not done before the start date.

What the team is telling you

The people picture, current instead of quarterly.

Headcount, leave patterns, time-to-hire and where onboarding stalls, visible on a dashboard you can question in plain language. The signals that used to surface in an exit interview show up while you can still act on them.

Trust & security

Built to be trusted with your business.

No black boxes and no surprises with your data. The same standards we run for regulated clients across telecom, healthcare and retail.

Your keys, your models

It runs on your own model-provider accounts (BYOK). You own the keys and can revoke them anytime.

Encrypted end to end

Credentials and data are encrypted with AES-GCM, in transit and at rest.

Hosted where you need

Data residency in Lebanon, the Gulf, or the EU, based on your rules.

Never trained on your data

Your data stays yours. We don’t use it to train models.

A human stays in control

Clear approval and escalation rules, with full context handed over.

Proven in production

Already running for Saudi Arabia’s largest grocery retailer and a Lebanese ISP with ~2,000 customers.

Common questions

Will it give employees the right answers?

It answers only from your handbook and policies, not the open internet, so it says what your company actually says. Anything sensitive or ambiguous is handed to a person instead of guessed.

Is CV screening fair, or does it just filter keywords?

It scores each CV against the real requirements of the role and gives a reason for every ranking, so a human reviews the shortlist with context. It’s a first pass that saves reading time, not the final decision.

Does it work in Arabic?

Yes. Employees can ask, and get answers and letters, in Arabic and English, including Gulf and Lebanese phrasing, so nobody is stuck with a language they don’t work in.

How is our employee data kept secure?

It runs on your own model-provider keys (BYOK), data is encrypted with AES-GCM in transit and at rest, and it can be hosted in Lebanon, the Gulf or the EU for residency. We never train models on your data.

How fast can we see it working?

Usually a first working piece, employee Q&A live or screening running, within two to three weeks of a scoped kickoff, once we have your handbook and access. Speed is the point.
