Dayforce Unveils the Agentic HCM Platform
MINNEAPOLIS and TORONTO, Oct. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dayforce, Inc., a global human capital management (HCM) leader that makes work life better, today unveiled the Dayforce® Agentic HCM Platform — a single, trusted foundation with native AI woven throughout that brings intelligence, action, and creation together to reshape how people experience work.
Rooted in the company’s commitment to deliver compounding, quantifiable value, Dayforce has evolved its suite into a connected system of action and outcomes — embedding native AI across both new and reimagined solutions to help organizations create impact for their people and business. The new agentic capabilities are governed by the Dayforce foundation for identity, permissions, privacy, security, approvals, and auditability. That foundation becomes increasingly important as AI evolves from answering questions to taking action — giving organizations the confidence to adopt new ways of working without compromising the control, compliance, and scale they depend on.
“AI is rewriting work life — and Dayforce is determined to make sure it’s rewritten for the better. That has been our promise since day one, and this next era of Dayforce delivers on it like never before,” said David Ossip, CEO and Founder of Dayforce. “Dayforce’s natively built AI is the foundation of our Agentic HCM Platform — it understands your people, your data, and how your business works. No one else brings those capabilities together on a foundation like this, giving customers a significant advantage over bolt-on technologies as they put AI to work across their organizations.”
The announcement was made at Dayforce Discover, the company’s flagship customer conference, where Dayforce is showcasing agentic innovation across HR, pay, time, talent, planning, implementation, and the broader Dayforce platform.
The New Building Blocks of Agentic HCM
As part of this evolution, Dayforce introduced new agentic products, services, and capabilities across the platform:
"In a market crowded with talk of agents and AI tools, what matters is whether the technology helps people to work in more practical, collaborative ways," said Stacey Harris, Chief Research Officer and Managing Partner, Sapient Insights Group. "What stands out to me about Dayforce's Agentic HCM Platform is the combination of a trusted foundation with novel ways to help people better collaborate with each other and with AI. Dayforce Build provides the ability to create interactive applications and different ways of working with data, rather than simply getting answers through chat. The Marketplace concept is particularly interesting because it creates the opportunity for teams to discover, share and reuse what others have built. No one in HR works alone, and they don't want to work alone."
Reimagined Experiences Across the Dayforce Platform
Additionally, alongside the new horizontal capabilities and services within the Dayforce Agentic HCM Platform, Dayforce is introducing new and enhanced experiences across the platform:
Availability
Select Dayforce AI Agent and Dayforce Deploy capabilities are available now, with additional agentic capabilities and experiences expected to become available at different times through 2027. Dayforce in Claude is currently in beta, with general availability planned for 2027. Availability and timing vary by capability and are subject to change.
