Leena AI

Leena AI finishes HR requests in your systems, and you get a price by quote

Leena AI reports 60% to 99% of queries answered without HR

These are Leena AI’s own figures from its customer pages. Ask for the same figures from a customer of your size.

It keeps your approval steps and sends sensitive questions to a person

Leena AI also publishes a guide written for works councils. It covers the same safeguards. In Germany, a works council has a right of co-determination over technical devices designed to monitor employee behaviour or performance. If you have a works council, send it the guide early.

Both customers with a stated size have 18,000 staff or more

Two customers have a stated size. Beacon Mobility has 18,000 employees. Mahindra Finance has 25,000 or more. Both are large. If you have 500 or 2,000 employees, ask Leena AI for a reference at your size. Do that before you spend a day on a demo.

It suits a company with a high volume of simple HR requests. It fits best where Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, UKG Pro, BambooHR or Dayforce holds your records. It also suits teams that need the same assistant in many languages. Employees without a company laptop can reach it over WhatsApp, SMS or a phone call.

It writes to your records, so you set the rules before launch

The assistant processes resignations, retirements and terminations from start to finish. It writes back to your records. Each write goes through the same checks and approvals as before. Those approvals are yours. If your approval steps are loose today, the assistant will follow loose steps faster.

Before you sign, decide which actions the assistant may finish and which wait for a person. Also decide who owns the list of sensitive topics and who receives them.

Leena AI publishes no price, so you cannot compare it with another product until you have its quote. Every result figure here is Leena AI’s own. Ask when each figure was measured.

Exit and data portability are governed by the vendor contract. It will make the exit and deletion clauses available to the works council. Read them before you sign.

You pay a flat yearly rate per employee, with no cap on use

The Universal Assistant is a flat licence, charged per employee per year. Use is unlimited and never metered. The rate steps down as your headcount grows. It also reflects your mix of workers and the use cases you switch on.

Leena AI quotes a number within one business day after you answer six questions. No dollar rate appears on the website. Pre-built connectors are included.

A second product, the AI Colleagues platform, is priced differently. It has an annual platform fee plus a usage charge. Usage is counted in units it calls tokens. That usage applies only to the autonomous AI Colleagues you run on the platform. It never applies to the Universal Assistant.

Leena AI was founded in 2018. On 29 September 2021 it announced a $30M Series B led by Bessemer Venture Partners. Total funding then stood at $40M.

On leaving, your HR data stays in your own systems of record. It is not moved to Leena AI’s servers. You can export a copy of the data to Excel from every report screen. Some screens also export to PDF and PNG. Ask what happens to chat transcripts and settings when the contract ends.

Eight questions for the demo

1. Which of our HR systems can the assistant write to, and which of those writes need a manager or HR approval first? Good answer: A written list of every action, with the approver for each one.
2. Can we switch off resignations and terminations for our first six months? Good answer: Yes, by action, and our own administrator controls the setting.
3. What annual rate per employee do you quote for our headcount and our mix of office and shift staff? Good answer: A number in writing, with the rate at the next headcount step down.
4. Which of your customers has about our headcount, and may we phone their HR lead? Good answer: A named customer of our size who agrees to a call.
5. What exactly counts as sensitive, and who receives it on our side? Good answer: A written list of topics and a named inbox or person in each country we operate in.
6. Which language, which channel and which of our HR systems will be live on day one? Good answer: A dated plan that names each one.
7. What do the exit and deletion clauses in the contract say, and in what file format do our records come out? Good answer: Clauses we can read before we sign, with a stated format and time limit.
8. Do the AI Colleagues on your platform cost extra, and how do you count usage in tokens, the units you charge for? Good answer: A worked example in writing, using our own volumes.

Alternatives to Leena AI

The closest alternatives are Moveworks, Workativ, Applaud and Wisq Harper. You could also ask your HR system vendor what its own assistant does, or buy nothing yet.

Moveworks also sells by custom quote. ServiceNow completed its purchase of Moveworks on 15 December 2025, so ask who your contract is with. Workativ publishes a Business plan at $349 a month, with a custom Enterprise plan above it. That price helps a smaller team test the idea.

Applaud charges per user per month. You can start with as few as 500 users and expand later. Wisq Harper flags sensitive topics to HR for review. Its data processing addendum says you agree not to send it sensitive data, so ask what that covers.
