AI HR Advisor

Meet AI Nicky

AI Nicky is our new HR AI Assistant, created to give small business owners a friendly, practical starting point for UK HR and employment questions.

Think of AI Nicky as an extra pair of hands when you need to sense check an issue, understand your obligations, or work out what questions you should be asking next.

For now, AI Nicky is available free of charge while we test, refine, and improve how it works.

What AI Nicky can help with

AI Nicky can support you with:

• General UK HR and employment guidance

• Explaining everyday people management processes, such as probation, absence, disciplinary and grievance matters

• Clarifying what the law says and what good practice looks like

• Helping you organise your thoughts before speaking to an HR professional

It is particularly designed for micro and small businesses who do not have in-house HR support but want reliable, plain English information.

What AI Nicky cannot do

AI Nicky is not a replacement for tailored HR advice.

It cannot give legal advice, draft bespoke documents, or take full account of the specific facts and risks of your situation. Where an issue is complex, sensitive, or high risk, we will always recommend speaking to the real human Nicky who will be able to provide a detailed response.

Beta access and what happens next

AI Nicky is currently in beta. That means it is free to use while we test accuracy, usability, and make improvements based on real-world use.

Once testing is complete, AI Nicky will become part of the benefits available to subscription members, alongside practical resources, templates, and additional support.

If you spot anything that could work better, we would love to hear from you. Your feedback will help shape how AI Nicky develops.

FAQs

What is AI Nicky?

AI Nicky is our virtual HR consultant that answers your top-level HR questions. It an AI-powered tool trained on general UK HR and employment information. It does not replace speaking to a qualified HR professional, but it can help you prepare for that conversation.

Will AI Nicky draft letters or documents for me?

Once the beta phase is complete we are planning for AI Nicky to become part of the benefits available to subscription members, alongside additional HR resources, templates, and support.

Can I rely on AI Nicky instead of getting HR advice?

AI Nicky is designed as a starting point and sense-check tool, not a replacement for professional advice. If an issue is complex, sensitive, or carries legal risk, we strongly recommend speaking directly with an HR professional.

AI Nicky should not be used to share sensitive personal data or confidential information. Please keep questions general and avoid naming individuals or sharing identifiable details. AI Nicky is a tool to provide general information. Human Nicky will be happy to help with any specific queries.

Who can use AI Nicky?

Anyone visiting this page can chat with Nicky during the beta phase.

What if AI Nicky gets something wrong?

AI Nicky is a support tool, not a decision-maker. While it has been designed to provide accurate, up-to-date general guidance, HR and employment matters are often nuanced and highly fact-specific.

As a beta tool, AI Nicky is still being refined. Information should always be sense checked before action is taken. If something does not look right, or you need certainty, please seek professional advice.

AI Nicky is there to help you feel more informed and more confident asking questions, not to replace tailored advice or professional judgement.

Is AI Nicky free to use?

No. AI Nicky does not draft bespoke documents or correspondence. It can explain what documents are usually required and what they should cover, but formal drafting should be done by an HR professional.

We are hopeful that when training is complete AI Nicky will be able to provide links to the correct documents within our document store, available to paid subscribers.

Can AI Nicky give legal advice?

No. AI Nicky does not provide legal advice and should not be relied on as a substitute for tailored HR or legal support. Employment issues often depend on the specific facts, which an AI tool cannot fully assess

Can I give feedback?

Yes. Feedback is actively encouraged during the beta phase and helps us improve how AI Nicky works and what it offers.
