How does Blink work for Employee Onboarding automation?
Blink works for Employee Onboarding automation by powering a DeskFerry agent that runs the workflow end-to-end inside your existing tools — no code, no custom build.
- 01
Trigger fires
The agent connects to Blink alongside the other apps your team already uses, watches for the triggers that matter for Employee Onboarding, and takes the next step on its own while keeping a complete audit trail for review.
- 02
New hire starts Monday
From paperwork to provisioning, AI handles every onboarding step automatically.
- 03
Send the IT checklist
Teams typically see shorter from day one to productive once the agent is in production.
- 04
Schedule their orientation in @Calendar
You stay in control: every action is logged, confidence thresholds are configurable, and anything ambiguous is queued for a human instead of being silently auto-completed.
- 05
You approve
Anything under your confidence bar waits for a human.
How you tell it what to do
Built in plain English.
You write the rule the way you'd describe it to a teammate. The agent reads the rule, breaks it into the actions it'll take, and confirms the apps it'll touch — before it does anything.
