How is Risotto different from BambooHR’s native workflows?

BambooHR runs workflows once they’re triggered from within BambooHR
Risotto handles everything before that. It answers questions, understands requests, and decides when to trigger those workflows in the first place, directly from your chat platform. HR doesn’t need to step in just to get things moving.

Can we control how HR workflows run?

Yes.
You define the logic in plain English. Set approvals, steps, and routing based on how your team already works. Risotto follows that logic every time.

How does Risotto handle sensitive HR data?

With strict access controls.
You decide who can trigger what and who can see what. Risotto respects permissions and only acts within the rules you set.

What kind of HR requests can Risotto handle automatically?

Most of the repeat ones.Policy questions, leave queries, benefits info, onboarding steps, basic employee updates. If it follows a pattern, Risotto can take it off your team’s plate.

Do employees need access to BambooHR?

No.
They ask in their preferred chat platform. Risotto handles the request and updates BambooHR in the background. Employees get what they need without logging into another system.
