BambooHR chatbot with automation

It answers questions about PTO balances, benefits, and company policies pulled from BambooHR's actual records, and takes action: submitting time-off requests, routing manager approvals, updating employee records the employee is permitted to change, and guiding new hires through onboarding tasks.

A basic FAQ bot explains how to request PTO in BambooHR. Workativ's chatbot checks the employee's real, current PTO balance in BambooHR and submits the actual request routed for manager approval and confirmed back automatically once approved.

An employee asks about or requests time off in Slack or Teams. The chatbot checks their live BambooHR balance, submits the request, sends the manager a one-tap approval, and updates the BambooHR record confirming to the employee in the same thread, typically in minutes.

Deployed as a native Slack app, employees interact with the chatbot directly no separate BambooHR login required for routine PTO, policy, or directory questions.

As a native Teams app, employees get the same self-service experience for PTO, benefits, and onboarding tasks, with every action synced back to BambooHR in real time.

Alongside BambooHR, Workativ connects to Azure AD, Okta, Microsoft 365, ServiceNow, Slack, Microsoft Teams, and 100+ other apps useful for triggering IT provisioning the moment BambooHR marks a new hire ready.

With a pre-built BambooHR API integration and ready-made templates for PTO, onboarding, and directory lookups, most organizations deploy within days without developer involvement.

Sensitive or exception requests are routed to your HR team through a shared inbox with full conversation context attached, so HR can act immediately without asking the employee to repeat themselves.

Yes. Workativ is SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR, and HIPAA compliant, with PII data redaction, role-based access control, and AI guardrails ensuring the chatbot only shows and changes data an employee is authorized to see.
