Top 10 AI Tools Every HR Professional in Colombia Should Know in 2025

Colombian HR leaders in 2025 face a fast-moving global shift: SHRM finds 43% of organizations now use AI in HR and recruiting remains the leading use case - from drafting job descriptions to screening resumes - promising major time savings and sharper candidate matches (SHRM 2025 AI in HR report).

At the same time, PwC's AI Jobs Barometer shows AI skills are driving wage premiums and rapid skill change, so Colombian teams must pair new tools with ethics, governance, and targeted upskilling to avoid wasted investment.

That's why practical, role-based training matters: programs like Nucamp's Nucamp AI Essentials for Work bootcamp teach usable prompts and workflows so hiring teams can turn reclaimed screening hours into DEI, coaching, and candidate-experience wins that actually boost retention and employer brand.

Methodology: selection prioritized tools and vendors that show clear fit for Colombian HR teams - local presence and real-world impact (the ENSUN directory of Top Hr Tech Companies in Colombia helped surface Bogotá- and Medellín-based players like Talentu, T3RS and Gestores Talento Humano®) while also aligning with regional market momentum: IMARC's Latin America HR Tech report (2024 market size USD 1,174.5M; 2025–2033 CAGR 6.80%) underscored why cloud, AI analytics and outsourcing matter for scale.

Criteria weighted: (1) Colombian relevance and PEO/payroll or recruitment capability (Atecno, Globedesk), (2) measurable time-to-hire or workflow gains (T3RS advertises “hasta un 64% más rápido”), and (3) AI or skills-based matching that supports DEI and upskilling priorities flagged in recruitment trend research.

Practical signals included SaaS delivery, psychometric or skills-assessment integration (Gestores Talento Humano®), and vendor roles in internal mobility or contractor compliance.

Finally, global trend research on AI in hiring and skills-based sourcing informed the cut: preference went to platforms that automate low-value tasks so HR can focus on coaching, experience and strategic workforce planning - matching Colombia's need for faster, fairer hiring at scale.

“I had a recruiter call me and say: ‘I walked away to feed my kids dinner, and when I came back later I had 30 confirmed phone screens on my calendar. I'm sold.'” - Eileen Kovalsky, Head of Candidate Experience, General Motors

Eightfold positions its Talent Intelligence Platform as a practical way for Colombian HR teams to move from résumé-based hiring to skills-first decisions: its agentic AI blends enterprise data, market trends and real‑time work signals to surface best-fit candidates, recommend internal moves, and map clear upskilling pathways - all driven by an unrivaled dataset of 1+ billion career trajectories and 1+ million skills (Eightfold product overview).

For organisations using SAP SuccessFactors or aiming for responsible, localised deployments, Eightfold offers integrations and enterprise guardrails through its partner solutions while promising to reduce bias by focusing on skills and potential rather than keyword matches; pricing examples (Starter Edition) are published through partner channels for budgeting conversations.

In Colombia this means faster hiring for frontline and technical roles, clearer succession paths for scarce senior skills, and reclaimed recruiter time that can be reallocated to coaching and DEI work - a tangible shift from reactive recruitment to proactive workforce planning.

HireVue is the enterprise-grade option on many Colombian HR radars because it scales: on‑demand video interviews, AI-driven evaluations and game‑based assessments let recruiting teams screen large candidate pools without endless scheduling, and the platform pairs advanced analytics and global security with multi‑language support (enterprise deployments often carry a premium - corporate packages start around USD 35k for mid‑large footprints) (HireVue pre-recorded video interview tools overview).

But the Center for Democracy & Technology's careful review raises practical red flags that matter in Colombia too: HireVue uses Rev.ai for speech‑to‑text and trains models from aggregated datasets (more than 30,000 video interviews is cited), typically combining 3–6 interview prompts with 2–3 game questions, yet its explainability on game assessments, job‑specific tailoring and accessibility for disabled candidates is limited - a reminder that automation must be paired with transparency, accommodations and local governance so hiring decisions stay fair and defensible (Center for Democracy & Technology HireVue AI explainability review).

Item	Research detail
Assessment types	Video interview assessments + game‑based assessments
Speech‑to‑text	Uses Rev.ai for transcription
Training data	30,000+ aggregated video interviews cited
Typical structure	3–6 video questions and 2–3 game questions

Gloat's AI-driven internal talent marketplace is a practical lever for Colombian HR teams that need to redeploy skills quickly, cut contractor spend and lift retention by matching employees to projects, gigs, mentorships and internal roles - think faster upskilling and fewer external hires.

The platform's Workforce Graph and Skills Foundation create real-time skill visibility and make internal mobility actionable (see the Gloat Talent Marketplace overview), while enterprise customers report big returns: Schneider Electric credits a talent‑marketplace deployment with unlocking 200,000+ hours and roughly $15M in productivity and recruiting savings.

For Colombian organisations weighing a rollout, Gloat integrates with major HCMs like SAP SuccessFactors and Workday and links to learning providers to turn matches into on‑the‑job development, but buyers should budget for change management, integrations and language support (initial InnerMobility deployments were English‑first, with Spanish planned) - details and pricing guidance appear in independent Gloat reviews and integration guides on SoftwareFinder (pricing often cited at about $5–10 PEPM).

In short: Gloat can turn hidden internal talent into on‑demand capacity, but success depends on a clear launch plan, integration readiness and executive sponsorship; read the Gloat talent marketplace explainer and independent reviews on SoftwareFinder to map fit for Colombia.

“It's a complete rewrite of HR. You need to think differently about speed and how to go deep and broad in an organization using AI.” - Jean Pelletier, VP Digital Talent Transformation, Schneider Electric

For Colombian HR teams looking to move from annual checklists to continuous people development, Lattice combines reviews, 1:1s, OKRs and real‑time feedback into a single dashboard that makes coaching scalable and measurable - think AI‑assisted review writing that halves drafting time and analytics that surface team trends so managers can run fairer calibrations and spot development gaps fast; Lattice's Performance suite and buyer resources are a practical place to start (see the Lattice Performance overview and the Lattice performance management buyer guide for implementation steps and ROI claims).

The platform integrates with common tools like Slack and Outlook to fit local workflows, and real customer stories include striking wins (GoCardless lifted review participation from 62% to 100%), but buyers in Colombia should plan for change management and language considerations since multi‑language support is limited in some reviews.

Pricing is per‑seat and modular (performance + engagement + development add‑ons), so pilot a core cycle, train managers on calibration and continuous feedback, then expand - that phased rollout follows Lattice's recommended implementation playbook and helps convert reclaimed admin time into coaching, retention and clearer career paths.

Core features	Performance reviews, 1:1s, feedback, OKRs, analytics, AI‑assisted writing (Lattice Performance overview)
Pricing (typical)	PEPM examples: starting ~$11/employee/month (core) up to $14–$22 PEPM reported across reviews (Lattice performance management buyer guide, Outsail)
Multi‑language support	Limited / no multi‑language support noted in product reviews (plan for Spanish rollout)

“Lattice's performance reviews are no longer just ‘ticking the box.' They've become pivotal, important, and meaningful conversations that help employees figure out their careers in the organization and beyond.” - Beverley Simpson, Lead HR Consultant, Linktree

Leapsome is a strong candidate for Colombian HR teams that want a single platform to make continuous feedback, performance reviews and learning stick without juggling spreadsheets - the People Managing People Leapsome review highlights easy goal‑setting, 360‑degree feedback, AI prompts for review drafts, and over 75 integrations with HRIS and collaboration tools (ADP, BambooHR, Deel, Rippling, Slack, Microsoft Teams) which helps if payroll and people data live across multiple systems in Bogotá or Medellín (Leapsome HR platform review and specifications).

Practical differentiators for mid‑market deployments include built‑in meeting‑planning that auto‑sends agendas after finalization and automation to define compensation structures and promotion workflows so decisions move from talk to action - a useful detail when faster promotion cycles can keep scarce technical talent from leaving.

Pricing starts from about $8/user/month with a 14‑day trial, and reviews note it's ideal for tech‑savvy or scaling teams though larger enterprises may need deeper customization support; compare how it handles 360 and meeting automation in broader 360 software guides (Best 360-degree feedback software comparison and guide).

Payscale gives Colombian HR teams a fast, defensible way to price roles and respond to market churn: its AI‑powered datasets (refreshed daily) and tools like Payfactors/Marketpay turn scattered salary spreadsheets into real‑time market signals that save hours of manual work and make offers competitive across Bogotá, Medellín and remote LATAM hires.

Use Payscale's market models and employer‑sourced Payscale Pulse to close gaps on niche roles and to build transparent salary ranges that align with rising local demands - especially as 2025 salary guidance in the region points to mid‑single‑digit hikes (Colombia ~6% in LATAM benchmarks).

For policy and pay‑equity context, Payscale's 2025 Compensation Best Practices Report lays out how pay transparency, compensation maturity and AI are reshaping reward strategy, while the product pages explain how 10,800+ benchmarked jobs and daily data feeds power practical benchmarking workflows for any size employer (Payscale real-time compensation data, 2025 Compensation Best Practices Report).

Metric	Detail / Source
Data refresh	Daily (AI‑powered pay insights)

Payscale Pulse participation	3,800+ employer contributors

“The way information is presented in Payscale is easier to interpret for both my team and ITX® employees. Yet the reporting is also granular enough that we can be very specific about the quantifiable aspects of the position, allowing us to assess employee performance as they gain experience and as the position evolves.” - Hernan Chiosso, VP of Global Talent, ITX

Lyra Health brings a research-backed option for Colombian HR teams who need mental health benefits that actually move the needle: peer‑reviewed results published in Value in Health show Lyra's AI provider‑matching reduced per‑episode costs by nearly 20% (about $340 saved per member) and shortened care by roughly two sessions while retaining clinical outcomes - a practical win when benefits budgets and retention pressures both matter.

The platform's AI matches on clinical fit, language and identity preferences so employees can get a culturally responsive connection (many members see a first appointment in less than a day and 95% stay with their first matched provider), which matters for diverse Bogotá and Medellín workforces; read the Lyra study and see how their approach prioritizes outcomes and equity in the Lyra clinical research hub.

For HR leaders, that combination - faster access, measurable savings, and evidence of effectiveness - translates into a benefits story that supports productivity and retention instead of just checking a compliance box.

Metric	Result / Source
Per‑episode cost reduction	~20% (Value in Health study)
Average sessions saved	~2.08 fewer sessions
Estimated savings	Up to $340 per member
First‑match retention	95% stay with first matched provider
Typical wait time for first appointment	Less than one day

“This study demonstrates that AI, using good data, can do more than streamline access to care; it can enable provider matches that get people better faster while retaining clinical quality.” - Dr. Anita Lungu, VP Clinical Product and Research, Lyra Health

Talla is the kind of HR helpdesk that turns a cluttered policy library into an always‑on teammate for Colombian HR teams - automating onboarding checklists, answering common payroll/PTO and benefits questions, and surfacing the right article from a centralized knowledge base so people get instant answers instead of waiting for HR inbox triage (see the Talla overview for product details).

Its strength is practical: an AI chatbot plus knowledge‑management layer that learns over time, integrates with collaboration stacks like Confluence, Slack, Microsoft Teams and SharePoint, and delivers performance reports so leaders can measure reduced ticket volume and faster time‑to‑answer (Talla AI HR assistant overview - HRLineUp, HR chatbots comparison and use cases - ChatBot).

For Bogotá or Medellín employers juggling shift schedules or distributed teams, Talla can act like a 24/7 HR desk - freeing HR to focus on coaching, DEI and retention instead of routine requests.

Deel gives Colombian HR teams a pragmatic way to hire, pay and stay compliant across borders: run payroll in Colombia (Deel is listed among supported countries) with local‑currency direct deposits, automated tax withholdings and payslips, plus AI‑powered checks that flag anomalies before they become costly (Deel Global Payroll).

Whether using Deel's native payroll engine or its partner network, teams get real‑time gross‑to‑net costing, consolidated reporting across entities, and 110+ integrations (Workday, SAP, accounting tools) so finance and HR don't grapple with fragmented spreadsheets.

For mixed workforces, contractor payments cover 120+ currencies and multiple payout rails, while the Employer‑of‑Record option lets firms hire in markets where they lack an entity - useful for Bogotá or Medellín teams expanding remote hiring without local legal overhead.

Implementation is practical (SMBs can go live in ~10 days; enterprises 1–3 months), treasury options smooth exchange‑rate surprises, and customer stories praise same‑day transfers and bulk payments - so payroll becomes a launchpad for faster hiring, not an operational bottleneck (Deel payroll and contractor management).

Item	Detail / Source
Global payroll coverage	130+ countries (payroll); 150+ countries for hiring/EOR
Pricing (starts)	Deel Global Payroll from $29/employee/month; Contractors $49/contract/month; EOR ~$599/employee/month
Customers & scale	35,000+ customers; 200+ in‑house experts; 110+ integrations
Implementation	SMB self‑guided ~10 days; enterprise 1–3 months

“As a company, if you want to hire someone in a country that you don't have infrastructure in, usually you struggle to do that. We're the first company that bridges the full HR aspect of running a company. All of your employees are in one database, combined with the fact that we can run payroll - we can help you hire anyone, anywhere.” - Alex Bouaziz, Co‑founder and CEO, Deel

Closing the loop: Colombian HR teams should treat AI procurement like a hiring process - start with a tight checklist, insist on transparency, then validate with pilots and audits so tools actually save time without creating legal or fairness headaches.

Use a proven vendor checklist (look for clear data practices, enterprise security, explainability and lifecycle support) such as AI vendor checklist - VKTR, pair that with a structured vendor questionnaire to probe bias, model provenance and governance (see AI vendor questionnaire - FairNow), and require a scoped pilot that measures accuracy, integration friction and human‑in‑the‑loop controls before signing long contracts.

Practical governance matters too: form a small multidisciplinary team, document policies, and build auditing gates so deployments in Bogotá or Medellín don't become compliance surprises.

For HR leaders wanting hands‑on skills to run these pilots and write better prompts, Nucamp AI Essentials for Work bootcamp teaches usable workflows and prompt craft to turn reclaimed hours into coaching, DEI and candidate‑experience wins.

3‑Step Playbook	Action
1. Build the Checklist	Define red flags/green flags: data transparency, IP, security, bias tests (VKTR/Cimphony)
2. RFP + Questionnaire	Ask for model docs, training data provenance, auditability and SLAs (FairNow)
3. Pilot & Audit	Run a scoped pilot, measure accuracy, integration and human‑in‑the‑loop performance before scaling (VKTR/Cimphony)

“AI laws will be complex to navigate. You'll almost certainly see more AI regulation, whether it's city ordinance, state law or new federal legislation. The US is not going to be like the EU; there's probably not going to be one overarching framework in a near-term timeframe. Instead, we can anticipate a growing regulatory thicket that will be very complex for folks to navigate.” - Michael Bennett, researcher at Boston's Northeastern University
