Interrogative Discourse with Layla Nasr, Head of Makila AI
Makila AI, a Canadian artificial intelligence startup, is making waves in the business world by helping organisations generate value from their workforce data. The company's solutions, powered by artificial intelligence, are designed to surface insights from financial and HR data, enabling management to make better decisions faster and make necessary strategic adjustments.
Transforming Human Resources (HR)
Makila AI's AI-driven technology is revolutionising various aspects of HR. One key area is talent acquisition and recruitment automation. By using AI to screen resumes, match candidates to roles, source candidates from multiple channels, and conduct gamified and video interview assessments, hiring time is significantly reduced, and diversity is increased [1][3][5].
In addition, AI chatbots serve as virtual onboarding assistants, guiding new hires on company policies, compensation, and time-off, improving the new hire experience by over 60% [1].
Predictive analytics for retention and performance is another area where AI shines. AI models can predict employee turnover risks with high accuracy (e.g., 95% at IBM) and help set fair, aligned performance benchmarks [3][4].
Personalised learning and development is another area where AI integrates learning management systems with performance data to create tailored skill development plans, driving workforce agility and strategic growth [3].
AI-driven mentoring and internal mobility platforms match mentors and mentees based on skills and performance data, enhancing engagement and program management [3].
Lastly, next-gen “agentic AI” systems can autonomously plan, act, and adapt across entire HR workflows, surpassing traditional automation limits and enabling self-improving processes [5].
Enhancing Financial Operations
On the financial side, Makila AI's solutions automate repetitive tasks such as accounts payable/receivable (AP/AR), reconciliations, and recurring reporting, improving accuracy, efficiency, and reducing manual workload [2].
AI-enhanced Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) generates more accurate rolling forecasts and predictive models based on historical and external data, supporting agile decision-making. FP&A teams using AI report 25% higher forecast accuracy and significant time savings [2].
AI-powered platforms can also help detect and predict the chances of questionable transactions and potential security threats in finance due to increased digital payments.
A Unified Approach to Gender Equality
Makila AI, in collaboration with Alixio Group, has developed the Gender Equality Index tool. This tool provides businesses with a unified analytical consulting approach supported by a digital solution, powered by AI. The Gender Equality Index tool measures, analyses, and interprets gender equality at the organisational level [6].
Eliminating Bias and Improving Understanding
Makila AI's AI tools can detect and correct biases that could skew HR analysis and help refine talent lifecycle strategies. Furthermore, the queries into the data and their results can be expressed in natural language, making them easy to understand and interpret [7].
In recruiting, AI and ML technologies are being used to analyse labor markets and competencies, match skill sets, and detect bias in job descriptions and the ranking of candidates [8].
By focusing on these AI-driven use cases, businesses can harness AI’s efficiencies both in managing talent and financial operations, driving strategic insights and better employee and stakeholder experiences going forward [1][2][3][4][5]. Makila AI's AI-driven algorithm delivers benefits at every level of operation in human resources, from day-to-day efficiencies to insights that help redefine objectives and strategies.
