Frequently asked questions

Why should my organisation use Athena?

HR systems weren’t built to execute the work - Athena is. Athena connects your HRIS, ATS, Slack and more to automate end-to-end processes. The impact: faster execution, fewer errors, and the ability to scale operations without adding headcount, freeing teams to focus on people and business outcomes.

How does Athena work?

You define your processes, rules, and approvals in plain language. Athena then executes them across your systems, updating data, routing requests, sending documents, enforcing compliance, and only involves humans when required. Your workflows run smarter, faster, and consistently every time.

Does Athena integrate with other HR systems?

Yes. Athena works seamlessly with Humaans as well as Workday, SAP, HiBob, Personio, BambooHR, and more, unifying your existing stack into a single automated engine. No migrations. No disruptions. Just better performance across what you already use.

How long does the setup take?

You can get started in weeks. Connect your tools, define your processes using your existing policies and templates, and Athena is ready to run. Time-to-value is fast, with measurable efficiency gains from day one. Scale it from there.

Can Athena support different policies and geographies?

Absolutely. Regions can set their own rules, documents, contracts, and compliance requirements, and Athena ensures every action stays aligned with local standards. Global scale, built-in governance.

Does Athena replace my team?

Athena eliminates manual admin and busywork. Athena automates repetitive work so your team can focus on strategy, performance, and culture and scale without growing operational overhead.

Is Athena secure and compliant?

Yes. Humaans is SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certified and fully GDPR compliant. Athena operates with the same enterprise-grade controls, advanced permissions, and transparent AI governance to protect your data and ensure compliance across regions.

Do I need technical expertise to use Athena?

You configure processes in plain language - no code, no specialized resources. Athena understands how your company runs and executes reliably at scale.
