People-First AI at Hive
Helping HR teams move faster, with tech that always keeps people first.
75% of HR leaders are using some form of AI, our job is to make sure it’s done right
(Deloitte’s Global Human Capital Trends; Gartner’s HR Technology Reports)Trust, transparency and the human touch
At Hive, we’re building AI features that work with your managers and leaders, not instead of them. Whether it’s surfacing themes from free-text feedback or suggesting meaningful next steps, every AI-powered feature in Hive is designed to help you act with confidence. Backed by data, powered by tech, and grounded in your people’s insight.
All without losing the human touch that makes great leadership, well… great.
Our AI principles
Hive’s AI follows three simple rules:
- People-first – You stay in control. Always.
- Ethical by design – Smart guardrails protect your people and data.
- Practical and transparent – Built to help, not overcomplicate.
How we make AI work for people, not just processes
Privacy comes first
Your data is yours, and we treat it that way. Hive never uses your data to train public AI models. Hive’s AI is powered by leading language models built by Anthropic and securely hosted in the EU via Amazon Web Services (AWS). We encrypt your information, comply with GDPR, and embed confidentiality into everything we do.
Committed to confidentiality
As we integrate AI into our platform, we maintain the same high standards: your feedback data is never used to identify individuals, and we ensure that all AI-generated insights are depersonalised and secure. Trust is fundamental, and we work hard to earn and keep it—at every step.
Built for fairness
We rigorously test our AI tools to identify and minimise bias, particularly in areas like sentiment analysis and theme detection. Our models are built to reflect every voice fairly- so you can trust the insights are accurate and inclusive.
Made with accountability in mind
We’ve added smart “Guardrails” to filter unsafe or inaccurate content and keep AI use on track. All outputs are reviewed regularly, and users get clear feedback if something doesn’t meet standards. Built-in reporting makes it easy to flag and fix issues fast.
You make the final call
Our AI helps you work smarter, but the big decisions still sit with you. Think of it like an extra set of (very fast) hands. It gives you a head start on analysis and action planning, so you can focus more on conversations and less on spreadsheets.
Always improving
We’re never finished. We’re constantly updating our models based on expert input and real-world feedback, so our AI stays accurate, relevant, and helpful to modern HR teams.
