What does HR Onboarding Squad do?
HR Onboarding Squad automates new employee onboarding with 3 Slack bots. An HR Manager guides the overall journey, an IT Setup Bot handles technical provisioning (laptop, VPN, accounts), and a Culture Guide introduces company values, team norms, and perks.
Every new hire gets the same consistent, high-quality onboarding — without overwhelming your HR team.
What's included
3 pre-configured bots:
- HR Manager — Onboarding coordinator, handles general HR questions and progress tracking
- IT Setup Bot — Technical onboarding: laptop setup, software access, VPN, account provisioning
- Culture Guide — Company culture, team traditions, handbook highlights, benefits overview
2 keyword routing rules + 1 fallback:
- IT requests (laptop, access, account, password, vpn, software, install) → IT Setup Bot
- Culture questions (culture, team, handbook, values, perks, benefits) → Culture Guide
- General onboarding → HR Manager
3 MCP integrations: Slack, Notion, Google Calendar
How it works
New hires interact with the HR Manager in a dedicated Slack channel. IT-related questions are automatically routed to the IT Setup Bot, which provides step-by-step guides for getting set up. Culture questions go to the Culture Guide, which shares handbook highlights and team info from Notion.

- You onboard new employees through Slack
