An onboarding agent for a 50,000-person workforce — built in 3 weeks.
Built entirely in AI Labs — a deterministic, multi-step onboarding agent that collects documents, verifies identity via API, assigns role-based training, and issues certificates. No code. No L&D headcount. Running in 12 languages on WhatsApp and the app.
The Challenge
- Delivery-partner onboarding took up to 3 days — document collection, verification and training were all manual and sequential.
- An L&D ops team spent most of its week chasing paperwork and re-running missed steps for thousands of new joiners.
- Compliance steps were routinely skipped, leaving gaps that surfaced only during audits.
- A multilingual frontline meant the same flow had to work in a dozen languages without re-building it each time.
How AI Labs Solved It
- Multi-Step Chat AgentA deterministic flow that never skips a step — collect, verify, assign, assess, certify, in order.
- API VerificationIdentity and BGV checks done live via integration — no manual data entry.
- Document & Camera HooksWorkers upload IDs and capture compliance photos right inside the chat.
- Knowledge from SOPsTrained on safety manuals and HR policy — answers questions in the worker's language.
- Background Workflow AgentAuto-assigns Day-1 training and syncs completions to HRMS with zero human touch.
We built our first onboarding agent in the AI Labs demo and had it live in three weeks. It does the work an entire L&D ops pod used to do — every step, every time, in every language.
