Human resources (HR) is the backbone of company operations, but the industry continues to struggle with high turnover and rising dissatisfaction among both HR professionals and company employees. With increasingly complex issues and heavier workloads, HR teams are often bogged down by time-consuming tasks that can feel thankless. The pressure to keep up with rising demands while addressing employee concerns is leading to frustration and burnout.

The message is clear: HR needs a reinvention⸺that's where Cascade AI comes in.

‍Organizations using Cascade AI have reduced HR inquiry volume by 50%⸺expecting up to 85% reduction as user adoption increases⸺and many have made it their primary global HR support resource. By automating tasks like benefits management, leave tracking, retirement planning, and employee relations, Cascade AI simplifies HR operations and streamlines workflows. Supporting the entire employee lifecycle⸺from onboarding to offboarding⸺it boosts employee satisfaction while freeing HR teams to focus on strategic work.‍

HR professionals spend up to 57% of their time on administrative tasks, according to a study by Deloitte. This overwhelming focus on routine work leaves little room for strategic initiatives that drive business growth. Cascade AI addresses this head-on by automating time-consuming tasks, allowing HR teams to reclaim their time and focus on what truly matters: the people.

Co-founded in 2022 by CEO Ana-Maria Constantin and CTO Pulak Goyal, Cascade AI enhances personalized employee support in HR processes by delivering the speed and specificity of generative AI. Recognizing that HR impacts overall business functions and directly influences employees’ lives more than any other department, Ana and Pulak developed a tool to simplify HR protocols while maintaining a personalized, high-quality employee experience.
