Product Close-Up: Revcast’s Hiring AI Agent - What Does it Do?

We’ve talked about our comprehensive revenue planning and forecasting solution being AI powered, so in this blog post, we’ll dive into more detail about our specific Hiring Agent. 

Being able to quickly understand and optimize your people capacity is critical to overall revenue achievement, and you don’t want to assume the annual hiring plan you created one, two, or three quarters ago is still the best plan moving forward. No doubt things have changed since that plan developed, and you want to incorporate those new insights into your decision making.

One of the primary uses of this Agent is to help you decide whether the timing is right to add to headcount capacity. The Agent helps you rapidly model scenarios around hiring, to best determine where in the team that headcount should be added, and what the re-forecast and costs would look like if that decision is made. 

Combined with what's in your annual plan, Revcast takes into account KPIs associated with your rep hires, including closed-won ARR, pipeline creation, quota attainment, and individual rep performance benchmarked across all your teams. As our head of product says, “This allows us to give you an instantaneous recommendation on if you should hire, and if so, where – what team, what role, what segment will have the most impact.”

Notable: Our solution is one of the few to integrate planning, forecasting, capacity, and performance through one lens.

In our feature demo video you can view below, our example shows the Hiring Agent recommended you do NOT hire the planned position at this time – and it allows you to drill down to better understand why Revcast came to that conclusion.

Additionally, you can open up a sidebar to chat with the Hiring Agent. You can ask the Agent questions about the conclusion and request recommendations on what to do to improve your revenue plan execution moving forward.

Other features include historical records of reports that the Agent has previously run, and the ability to instantly generate a fresh report based on new data since the last report was run.

The Hiring Agent is just one of our AI co-pilots automatically included with Revcast; others include our Scenario Analysis Agent and our Forecasting Agent. You can read more about each, or even better, schedule a demo walk-through with us.
