# The HR Agent Your Team Will Actually Use
"What's our holiday policy?" "How do I request time off?" "Where's the expense form?"
These questions get asked every week. Your HR team answers the same things over and over. Your employees can't find what they need in the company wiki.
What if there was an agent that actually knew the answers?
## Why internal knowledge agents work
Your company already has the answers written down somewhere. Employee handbooks. Policy docs. Notion pages. The problem is nobody can find them.
An internal agent trained on your company docs gives employees instant answers. No searching. No waiting for HR. No outdated information.
## How to build one
1. Connect your company [Notion workspace](https://chatthing.ai/docs/notion-data-source) or [files](https://chatthing.ai/docs/file-data-source)
2. Add your employee handbook (PDF works too)
3. Set the prompt to be helpful and point people to HR for sensitive topics
4. Deploy to [Slack](https://chatthing.ai/docs/slack-bot-channel) so employees can ask from where they already work
That's your internal HR agent. Takes about 30 minutes to set up.
## What it's good at
- Holiday and leave policies
- Expense and reimbursement processes
- Benefits and perks information
- Onboarding checklists
- "Where do I find X?" questions
- Company process and procedures
## Keep it updated
Connect your [Notion workspace](https://chatthing.ai/docs/notion-data-source) and enable [auto-sync](https://chatthing.ai/docs/what-is-a-data-source#automatic-syncing). When HR updates a policy, your agent knows about it automatically.
