Frequently asked questions
Does HiBob use customer data to train AI models?
No. HiBob and its AI providers never use customer data to train AI models. We have a strict zero retention policy
What data does Bob AI use?
Bob AI uses only the data required to answer your request or complete an action, based on:
- The information you provide
- Your role and permissions
The features and modules enabled by your organization
Is Bob AI activity shared or mixed across customers?
No. Each customer’s AI activity is fully isolated.
HiBob uses customer-specific identifiers to ensure complete data separation. Your use of Bob AI is not bundled, aggregated, or shared with other customers—one of the key requirements for enterprise-grade HR AI software.
Can Bob AI access data I don’t normally have permission to see?
No. Bob AI respects the same permission layers as the rest of Bob. It cannot access or surface any data you are not authorized to view.
Can we control which AI features are enabled in Bob for our own company?
Yes. All AI capabilities are fully configurable.
Account admins can enable or disable AI features at any time through the AI Settings page.
Can Bob AI take actions without my approval?
No. Bob AI always requires a human in the loop to approve actions that affect company data.
Any write action:
- Requires explicit user confirmation
- Follows existing permission rules
- Can only be performed by authorized users
This ensures AI for HR professionals remains assistive—not autonomous
Is Bob AI considered an automated decision-making tool?
No. Bob AI does not make decisions on behalf of your organization.
It provides insights, summaries, and recommendations, but people always own the final decisions—especially when it comes to employees, compensation, or sensitive HR actions.
Are there questions Bob AI won’t answer?
Yes. Bob AI will not answer questions about data you’re not permitted to access or recommend actions that could directly impact employees without human judgment.
