About Applaud

Applaud is an employee-first HR service delivery platform from Applaud Inc. that changes HR service delivery and enables employees for a better work use.

Applaud is a sophisticated HR service delivery platform designed to improve the employee experience while reducing the administrative burden on HR teams, bringing together an AI assistant, knowledge management, employee portals, and automated case management within a single cloud-based system that works alongside existing HR platforms such as Workday, SAP, or Oracle. Its core strength lies in its use of generative AI to provide round-the-clock, multilingual self-service support, allowing employees to get answers, complete routine HR actions, and submit requests through a conversational interface without raising tickets, which helps significantly lower support volumes and response times. The no-code creator tools enable HR teams to design and customize workflows, journeys, and content without heavy reliance on IT, making the platform flexible and adaptable to evolving organizational needs. Intelligent case routing and prioritization ensure complex issues are handled efficiently, while built-in analytics provide visibility into service performance, employee sentiment, and operational savings.
