BambooHR’s AI Development Principles
We're dedicated to creating HR software solutions that empower humans and make a difference.
Our Three AI Principles
At BambooHR, we’re working tirelessly to find the most meaningful uses for new, powerful technologies like artificial intelligence (AI).
As we build AI into our HR solutions, we’ve developed three key principles to help us stay true to the core, human-centric values shared by our company and you:
- Benefits should be clear
- Empowerment, not replacement
- Built on a foundation of trust
1. Benefits Should be Clear
AI should make your life easier and your work more effective. That’s why we focus on creating AI solutions that provide real, impactful benefits to you and your team.
Enhance Efficiency
AI should take automation of day-to-day tasks to the next level, so you have more time for the strategic, meaningful work that brings it all together.
Improve Decision-Making
AI has great potential to bridge the translation gap between data and actionable insights, helping you make informed decisions faster and more confidently.
Boost Productivity
Streamlining workflows with AI should help you reduce even more administrative burdens to save more time.

2. Empowerment, Not Replacement
AI should empower us, not replace us. At BambooHR, we’re committed to creating AI tools that amplify the human element in HR, helping your team shine and do their best work.
Augment Human Abilities
AI tools should support your team by boosting their abilities and freeing up their time for more creative and strategic tasks.
Foster Growth
With AI easing tedious administrative tasks, HR professionals can better focus on developing talent and nurturing a positive company culture.
Drive Engagement
Access to cutting-edge AI tools can help employees find new opportunities to focus on more engaging, meaningful work.
3. Built on a Foundation of Trust
Trust is the foundation of everything we do. We believe in earning your trust through developing and applying responsible, ethical AI that respects your data privacy.
Establish Transparency
We provide clear insights into our algorithms and processes, so you always have an understanding of how AI decisions are being made for the software you rely on.
Be Fair and Unbiased
Our AI is designed to treat everyone equally, eliminating biases and promoting fairness across all HR activities.
Ensure Security and Privacy
We use top-notch security measures to protect your data. Your privacy is paramount, and we comply with all relevant data protection laws and regulations.
