Why It Matters

The deepest systems stay in place. CitizenHire focuses on the workflow layer where agent speed, human control, and auditability meet.

Core Actions

Employment Lifecycle
Worker Records
Create + Update
Profiles, titles, and managers
Approval Flow
Request + Decide
Human approvals with policy checks
System Sync
Audit + Connect
Connector requests into ATS, HRIS, and payroll

Every mutation is designed to flow through an action request, approval decision, and audit event before any downstream sync happens.

How The Workflow Layer Fits

3 Steps
Step 1

Agent Requests An Action

Your agent proposes a worker or employment change instead of writing directly into a system of record.

Step 2

Policy + Human Approval

CitizenHire evaluates approval rules, captures decisions, and records the full action trail.

Step 3

Apply + Sync

Approved actions update the employment model and can queue connector sync into external systems.

Need A Managed Rollout?

Pilot Support

Founders and operators can start with a guided pilot, then decide whether to stay managed, self-host, or run a hybrid deployment.

Managed Launch

Ship Agent-Driven Employment Ops Without Unchecked Writes

Use CitizenHire as the workflow layer between AI agents and the systems that hold official employee records.

  • Map high-stakes workflows before launch
  • Attach approvals and audit trails to every action
  • Roll changes into ATS, HRIS, and payroll with control

Managed Rollout

Pilot Motion

02

Design The Controls

Approval policies, audit events, and connector boundaries are defined before the first launch run.

03

Launch The Pilot

Your team gets a working path to test agent-driven employment workflows without replacing core systems on day one.

Tell Us What You Want To Launch

OSS Intake

Tell us which employment workflows your agents need to request, approve, and sync. We use this to prioritize docs, connectors, and pilot support.

This intake does not replace your ATS or payroll system. It helps define the workflow layer around them.

Builder Intake
One step
Open-source first. Human approvals. Clear next steps.

Thanks. Your intake is in.

We will follow up with OSS updates or pilot-fit next steps.

Common Questions

Fast Answers
Does CitizenHire replace my HRIS or payroll system?

No. CitizenHire is the workflow layer around those systems, not a payroll or tax engine on day one.

Is it open source yet?

The repo is being sanitized for a public release. Today you can join the pilot list, shape the roadmap, and request a managed launch.

How do approvals work?

Employment mutations are designed to route through action requests, approval decisions, and audit events before downstream sync happens.

What am I buying at checkout?

The launch options fund onboarding and pilot setup. They are not a promise of payroll replacement or a generic software subscription.
