The AI hiring software map

HR analytics and workforce planning

24 companies on the AI hiring software map. Updated Nov. 2, 2026.

HR analytics tools report on the workforce, such as headcount, turnover, pay and skills. Workforce planning tools forecast the people a company will need and model changes to the org. Most now answer questions asked in plain language.

Visier's Vee answers workforce questions, and Visier launched an MCP server so outside AI agents can read workforce data. Lightcast and Revelio Labs sell labor market data. Pave and Payscale cover pay.

Its Experience Agents are pitched mainly for customer service.
