The problem it solves

Every new hire means filling out the same onboarding steps by hand: sending a welcome email, briefing the manager, requesting equipment, and logging it all somewhere. Doing that consistently, especially when hiring several people a month, is easy to fumble.

Who it fits

Best for HR teams or growing small businesses who onboard new employees regularly and want a consistent process.

How it works

  1. A new hire's details are submitted through a form
  2. AI reviews the role and sets a priority level, from standard to executive
  3. A personalized onboarding plan and training goals are generated
  4. Welcome emails go out to the new hire and a prep checklist goes to their manager
  5. An IT setup request is created and the record is logged for tracking
What you get

Onboarding plans ready for a quick read-through

You get a personalized onboarding plan, welcome emails, and an IT setup request ready as soon as a new hire signs up.

What you get

A personalized onboarding plan, welcome and manager emails, an IT request, and a logged record.

What you need

A Jotform account, an OpenAI API key, and a Google Workspace account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
