The outcomes.

Where your data lands.

Your agent acts as the bridge between your chat interface and Culture Amp.

SEARCH

Find existing staff

The agent uses your prompts to locate specific people in the directory. You get immediate access to their current profile info.

ADD

New hire entry

When you have new team members, the agent builds their profile. This puts them into Culture Amp immediately.

VERIFY

Data accuracy check

You can ask the agent to pull specific details for a person. This ensures the info in the system matches your current records.

HUMAN

Manual review needed

The agent won't delete anyone from your system. You still control the final removal of any records through the Culture Amp UI.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask for updates.

The agent follows a logical path to ensure the right person is being updated or added.

  1. Locate the person

    The agent first looks for the individual in your existing Culture Amp directory to prevent duplicate entries.

    search_employees_by_name

  2. Pull current info

    Once found, the agent grabs the specific profile data to confirm it has the right person before making changes.

    get_employee_details

  3. Create the record

    If the person isn't in the system, the agent uses the details you provide to build a new profile.

    create_employee_record

  4. Confirm completion

    The agent reports back once the search or creation is finished so you know the directory is current.

    search_employees_by_name
