Moveworks
Moveworks answers staff questions about leave balances and policies in Slack, Teams or a portal. It also acts on time off requests in Workday or SAP SuccessFactors. ServiceNow completed its purchase of Moveworks in December 2025. You buy Moveworks through a custom quote.
Ask for a quote if you run Workday, SAP, Oracle or UKG
Moveworks is a chat assistant for HR, IT and finance questions. It connects to Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle HCM Cloud and UKG Pro, and ServiceNow now owns it.
You run one of those four HR systems. You want one assistant for HR and IT questions. You want answers that carry a source and follow each employee’s access rights.
You need a price before any sales call. You need a reference customer with fewer than 8,000 staff. You want a supplier that has not changed owner recently.
ServiceNow bought Moveworks for $2.85 billion, and a US antitrust investigation into the deal was reported. Ask what the new owner commits to in writing.
Custom quote only. You can also buy through the Azure Marketplace, or with a ServiceNow deployment.
It answers HR questions and completes routine requests in chat
Moveworks is built for HR and People Ops teams. It also covers IT and finance questions. It works across the main HR systems that hold employee records.
An employee asks a question in plain language. The assistant searches your systems, policies and knowledge bases and gives an answer with its sources. Employees can check a paid time off balance, look up a policy, and submit and track an HR case.
It also acts on requests. In SAP SuccessFactors, an employee can cancel a pending or approved paid time off request. In Workday, a manager can review pending paid time off requests, gather context and act on them in natural language. In recruiting, the Greenhouse link lets staff submit a job referral, check a candidate’s status and submit interview feedback.
Employees can ask in Slack, Teams, a portal, an intranet or on the web. Mobile is also a channel. Employees will also be able to reach it inside Microsoft 365 Copilot and Teams. Staff can use it from supported channels without a company laptop or email.
Moveworks uses several AI language models from different providers, not one. The AI HR assistants guide compares it with the other seventeen products.
It cites sources, respects access rights and keeps data in region
It finishes routine requests without a ticket
Most routine requests are resolved from start to finish, often with no ticket and no help from your team. Employees get a paid time off balance or a policy answer in seconds. They can also submit an HR case and follow it.
Answers come with their sources
The assistant searches your systems, policies and knowledge bases. Each answer carries a citation, so an employee or an HR partner can check where it came from.
Employees only see what they are allowed to see
Every answer follows your existing access controls. An employee sees only the information they are authorised to view.
Customer data stays in its region
Amazon Web Services hosts Moveworks. All customer data stays in its region and is never moved elsewhere. The platform does not use employee data to train models without explicit consent.
Customers with a stated size run from 8,000 to over 100,000 staff
Johnson Controls, more than 100,000 employees in 150 countries
Support call volume fell by about 40% across its whole global workforce.
Siemens Healthineers, 74,000 employees
Its assistant Ada runs on Moveworks. It saves 5,000 hours a month, and 91% of users are satisfied.
UKG, 15,000 employees
Dozens of use cases that act on a request are already live.
Databricks, more than 8,000 employees
Employees get instant support through the assistant.
Starburst and Ciena, size not stated
Within one month, Starburst saw an average of 50% of IT and HR issues resolved with no person involved. Ciena runs more than 100 automated use cases for IT and HR tasks. It cut approval time by 85%, from three days to 30 minutes.
The price is hidden, the owner is new and results are its own
The price comes only from a sales conversation
Moveworks invites you to talk to an expert for a custom quote. No price appears on its site. You cannot compare it with other assistants until you have a quote.
The company changed hands, and regulators looked at the deal
ServiceNow agreed to buy Moveworks on 10 March 2025 for $2.85 billion in cash and stock. PYMNTS reported on 17 July 2025 that the US Department of Justice opened a detailed antitrust investigation. ServiceNow completed the purchase on 15 December 2025. Contract terms, support and the product plan now sit with a larger owner.
It reaches four HR systems
Moveworks connects to Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle HCM Cloud and UKG Pro. Its recruiting link is Greenhouse. If you run a different HR system, ask Moveworks whether it connects and what it can change there.
The results are Moveworks’ own figures
These percentages and hours come from Moveworks’ own pages and case studies. Each customer counts its results in its own way. Ask how each one was measured before you put it in a business case.
You get a custom quote, or buy through Azure or ServiceNow
Moveworks asks you to connect with an expert to request a custom quote. It publishes no price per employee or per use.
There are two other routes to buy. Moveworks is on the Azure Marketplace, so a company can put its pre-committed Microsoft Azure budget toward it. Moveworks is also still sold as a standalone product within the ServiceNow portfolio. You can buy it on its own, or as part of a ServiceNow deployment.
Ask for the quote in writing, with the unit it counts, before you compare it with other assistants.
You could also build the same steps on your own systems. We have mapped what that looks like. The HR Agent Map
Get the price, actions and new owner in writing before you sign
- What is the price for our headcount, and what does it count? Good answer: A written price per employee or per use, with the unit named in the order form.
- Can we buy it through the Azure Marketplace or inside our ServiceNow contract? Good answer: A yes or no for each route, and the price difference between them.
- Which actions can it take in our HR system, and which does it only look up? Good answer: A written list per system, with who approves each action.
- What changes for us after the ServiceNow purchase? Good answer: Named contract, support and product commitments that survive a later reorganisation.
- How did each customer result count a request as resolved, and over what period? Good answer: A written definition, and the same figure for HR requests alone.
- How do staff without a company laptop or email reach it? Good answer: A named channel and sign-in method, shown working with a customer of ours.
- Which customer with fewer than 8,000 staff can we speak to? Good answer: A named reference on our HR system, with a stated headcount.
- What does “explicit consent” for model training look like in our contract? Good answer: A clause that says no training on our data unless we sign a separate consent.
