HR professionals face significant pressures, with 62% reporting departments operating beyond capacity and 57% lacking sufficient staff, according to the 2025 SHRM State of the Workplace Report. This understaffing leads to 66% of HR teams viewing their departments as less effective.

Sophie analyzes incoming HR tickets, auto-tags and prioritizes them based on urgency and tone, and drafts personalized replies.
