The outcomes

Where your data goes

The AI handles the data entry and retrieval so you don't have to.

ONBOARDING

New staff profiles

The AI creates new records in 7shifts based on the details you provide. This gets new hires into the system without manual form filling.

LOOKUPS

Instant staff info

Your agent pulls current employee lists and specific profiles on demand. You get the information you need without logging into the dashboard.

LOCATIONS

Site management

The AI checks your active locations to ensure staff are assigned to the right place. This keeps your roster organized across different sites.

HUMAN

Final roster checks

The AI manages the records, but you remain responsible for the actual scheduling. You decide who works when based on the data the AI provides.
