BEFORE YOU SWITCH ANYTHING ON

Planning your agents

The parts that decide whether an agent works in practice: governance, cost, people and proof.

  1. Give every agent an owner. One named person in the business who decides whether it's switched on, and who is accountable for what it says.
  2. Check data protection early. Where an agent uses personal data at scale, or its answers feed into decisions about people, your data protection team will usually want a data protection impact assessment, and your privacy notice may need updating.
  3. Tell people. Employees and candidates should know when they're using AI, what it's for, and how to check an answer with a person.
  4. Keep a register. A simple list of every agent you've switched on: its owner, what it reads or changes, its risk level and when it was last tested.
  5. Involve employee representatives. Where AI touches monitoring or decisions about people, talk to unions or employee forums early. In some EU countries, works councils have a right to be consulted.
  6. Know where the data goes. Oracle says each organisation's data is isolated and isn't used to train models or generate responses for others. It also says generative AI processing happens in a secure Oracle Cloud environment that might be outside your local region. Check that against your own data residency requirements.
  7. Be careful what you upload. Several agents answer from documents you add to them, and anyone who can use the agent can get answers from those documents. Only add what everyone with access may see.
  8. Treat higher-risk uses differently. Recruitment, pay and performance uses are among those the EU AI Act treats as high-risk, with obligations currently due from 2 December 2027, and UK data protection law requires safeguards such as human review for significant automated decisions. This isn't legal advice: involve your legal and data protection teams.

METHOD

How I built this page

The catalogue comes from Oracle's AI Features Report (downloaded on 16 October 2026), filtered to HCM, plus a few HCM features Oracle lists elsewhere, such as Fusion Claw apps from Oracle's announcement and HR Help Desk features Oracle files under Service. Oracle lists each release update separately, so I've grouped the entries by agent: 328 Oracle entries become 155 catalogue items, each with its full history. The profiles are my practitioner view, checked against Oracle's release notes for each agent. I review the page after every quarterly update.

Planning your first agents?

I write about Oracle HCM and AI each month in The Monthly Field Note. If you'd like to compare notes on your own plans, get in touch.

This is an independent practitioner view, not Oracle documentation. Features, names and availability change each release and depend on your licences and setup; some agentic applications carry extra costs. Always check Oracle's own notes and your environment. Last reviewed October 2026.
