The workforce management leader closed 2024 with numerous industry achievements for its excellence in AI-driven capabilities

Legion Technologies, an innovator in workforce management, today announced a standout year for its excellence in AI for the enterprise. Legion will be at NRF 2025 to showcase the power of Legion AI, the innovative AI platform supporting Legion’s comprehensive workforce management (WFM) solution.

Legion AI is a comprehensive platform that integrates cutting-edge AI technologies alongside an enterprise-grade AI infrastructure and data pipeline. It enables intelligent automation across workforce management and drives critical functions within Legion WFM, such as accurate forecasting, optimized scheduling, advanced insights, and conversational assistants.

With intelligent automation powered by Legion AI, companies like Helzberg have been able to transform their labor operations and deliver tangible value to their business and employees. According to Ryan Holm, Helzberg’s director of retail innovation and operations, “Helzberg has been able to offer our store associates increased schedule flexibility and allow managers to spend 66% less time on employee scheduling” through its use of the Legion platform.

Every week, Legion WFM automatically:

  • Forecasts 1.6 billion data points
  • Generates 1.2 million shifts
  • Performs 1.7 million optimizations
  • Trains 300 thousand models

“From day one, Legion has firmly believed that workforce management should be intelligently automated to consistently deliver high-value results to customers and their employees. It’s with that guiding vision that we have proven operational maturity in AI with nearly all of our customers actively using Legion AI,” said Sanish Mondkar, CEO and founder of Legion Technologies. “As more companies seek to integrate AI solutions into their workforce management strategies, Legion’s deep experience and proven technical maturity have enabled us to provide industry-leading solutions, including a fleet of generative AI assistants already powering critical core use cases. The accolades we’ve received, investments we’ve secured, and most importantly, the workplaces we’ve transformed, are proof that Legion is driving unparalleled innovation in AI for the enterprise.”

Legion AI supports more than 70 use cases across the workforce management continuum and released several notable AI features in 2024, including a fleet of new generative AI assistants. These conversational assistants enhance workforce operations by offering personalized guidance, automating repetitive tasks, and providing intuitive support for managers and employees. A few of these helpful new assistants include:

  • A scheduling assistant that provides comprehensive insights and recommended actions, in addition to executing schedule changes.
  • An authoring assistant that facilitates the creation of newsfeed posts and announcements in multiple languages.
  • An expression assistant that provides administrators with contextual explanations and validations, making it easier to configure custom expressions that extend the platform to meet specific needs.
  • A translation assistant that enables employees to access team communications in their preferred language, enhancing collaboration across teams.
  • A time and attendance assistant that enables payroll managers to easily search and filter timesheets.
