How AI fits in Employment Hero

AI workflows that speak Employment Hero's language.

Below are the actual product modules, features and ecosystem partners Employment Hero uses - the AI layer Horizon AI builds slots into these, not around them.

Automate the admin around Employment Hero HR and Payroll: triage SmartMatch candidate shortlists for recruiter review, draft onboarding pack emails through the Employment Hero Work app, reconcile leave and timesheet anomalies before Managed Payroll runs, and chase missing super or STP Phase 2 data. Sync corrected payroll outputs to Xero or MYOB AccountRight through the existing one-click integration.

By the numbers. Employment Hero publicly markets SmartMatch as an AI-powered candidate matcher within the Employment Unlimited tier and one-click payroll integrations with Xero and MYOB AccountRight Live.

How the integration works

AI inside Employment Hero, not bolted on top.

Employment Hero integrations are built through the consultancy's existing user account so workflows respect candidate visibility, client confidentiality and ATS permissions.

Horizon AI scopes one narrow workflow first, builds it with the access boundaries your team is comfortable with, and hands over an operating runbook so the AI step is reviewable and replaceable.

Common questions

Employment Hero AI automation, answered.

Can Horizon AI integrate with Employment Hero?
In most cases yes. Employment Hero exposes supported integration paths that Horizon AI can build against. The exact integration depth depends on your subscription tier, the user roles available and the data each workflow needs.
Does Horizon AI replace Employment Hero?
No. Employment Hero stays as your system of record. Horizon AI layers reviewed AI workflows on top so your team spends less time on repetitive admin while the data continues to live inside Employment Hero.
Which recruitment workflow should we automate first?
Start with a process that is repeated weekly, has a clear trigger and a clear output, and can be reviewed by a person before it affects a client, payment or compliance record. The discovery call covers this in detail and maps it to ai automation for recruitment agencies patterns we have built before.
