From Chatbot to Copilot

ORIS AI 2.0 represents a fundamental shift from a simple Q&A bot to a true HR copilot. It doesn't just answer questions — it understands context, suggests actions, and drafts documents. All with a strict human-in-the-loop design: ORIS proposes, you approve.

What You Can Ask

ORIS understands natural language queries across your entire HR and payroll dataset:

  • "What's our total PF liability for March 2026?"
  • "Show me employees whose ESI eligibility changed in the last quarter"
  • "Draft an offer letter for a Senior Engineer role at L5 with CTC ₹18L"
  • "Compare old vs new tax regime for all employees earning above ₹12L"
  • "Which departments have the highest attrition rate this quarter?"

Actions, Not Just Answers

When ORIS identifies an action that needs to be taken, it creates a pending action in your approval queue:

  • Salary revision recommendations → Review and approve
  • Compliance filing reminders → Acknowledge and schedule
  • Policy document drafts → Edit and publish
  • Employee query responses → Review and send

Every action goes through your approval panel. ORIS never modifies payroll data directly — this is a core architectural principle.

Privacy by Design

ORIS is powered by Anthropic's Claude, but your employee data is never sent to the AI provider in identifiable form. PeopleOS automatically redacts all PII (names, Aadhaar tokens, PAN numbers, bank details) before any data reaches the language model. The AI works with anonymised, aggregated data and structural context only.
