Its technology helps organisations identify internal talent mobility, accelerate hiring, improve retention and strengthen diversity outcomes.

The power of Eightfold AI

Partnering with industry giants such as SAP, Oracle and Workday, Eightfold AI integrates seamlessly with enterprise ecosystems, empowering HR and business leaders to optimise workforce planning and align talent strategy with long-term innovation goals.

The firm was founded in 2016 and is headquartered in California's Silicon Valley. It has rapidly emerged as a trusted partner to forward-thinking companies navigating the AI-driven shift in work.

Its platform enables enterprises in sectors including financial services, healthcare, manufacturing and technology to build resilient, adaptive workforces ready for the next wave of digital transformation.

Co-Founder and CEO Ashutosh Garg explains how, with Eightfold AI agentic by design, every decision, career path, and skill development opportunity is informed by AI and centred on human potential.

This is one reason why Eightfold AI partners with Salesforce, to bridge human potential and agentic AI.

“Salesforce leads by example and is showing the business community how humans and agents will work together successfully in the AI era,” Ashutosh explains. 

“Just as we expect exponential gains with AI agents, we should also expect exponential improvements in how we leverage the human workforce.”

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff adds: “Humans must remain at the heart of the AI story.”

From workforce analytics and hiring automation to AI ethics and data transparency, Eightfold’s approach ensures responsible innovation and measurable impact across the talent lifecycle. 

The company’s commitment to responsible AI positions it as a trusted voice in global discussions on workforce transformation and future-readiness.
