Your ATS has AI for screening. The paperwork still sits between systems.

It can prepare the paperwork around a placement: onboarding documents, credential and license-expiry tracking, and timesheet checks. Screening and matching are described on Bullhorn's, Avionté's and Sense's own pages, so price those first and ask counsel about hiring rules where you place people.

For work inside Bullhorn, often yes, so ask about it first. Bullhorn's pricing page puts Amplify AI on Pro and Max, which show no dollar price, and publishes Starter at $99 and Core at $165 per user per month. We did not find, on the Bullhorn pages we read in October 2026, a description of work across client portals, payroll or a separate onboarding tool. Look beyond it when work spans those systems.

Local Law 144 applies to employers and employment agencies that use an automated employment decision tool to screen candidates for employment or employees for promotion in the city. It requires a bias audit conducted no more than one year before use, a public summary of the audit results, and notice to candidates and employees who reside in the city at least ten business days before use. Whether a given tool meets the law's definition is a question for your counsel. This is not legal advice.

Illinois Public Act 103-0804, effective January 1, 2026, makes it a civil rights violation under the Illinois Human Rights Act for an employer to use AI that has the effect of discriminating in recruitment, hiring, promotion, discharge, discipline or terms of employment, and requires notice to employees when AI is used for those purposes. Colorado SB 26-189 sets requirements for automated decision-making technology that materially influences consequential decisions, including employment, and generally takes effect January 1, 2027. This is not legal advice; ask counsel which duties apply to your firm.

It depends on what the tool does, and that is a legal question. New York City's law covers tools used to screen candidates for employment or employees for promotion, and its rules turn on how much weight a tool's output carries in the decision. Illinois's act addresses employer use of AI in recruitment, hiring, promotion, discharge, discipline and terms of employment. Colorado's covers technology that materially influences a consequential decision about employment. This is not legal advice; ask your counsel whether a given workflow is covered.

Prices vary widely and several vendors publish none. Bullhorn's pricing page publishes Starter at $99 and Core at $165 per user per month, and Pro and Max, where Amplify AI is listed, show no dollar price. Sense's pricing page lists AI Recruiter starting at $3,000 per month. We found no public price on Avionté's AI page (October 2026).

Check the terms for the exact product, because vendors publish different levels of detail. Bullhorn's Amplify Digital Workers page says Amplify ensures 'your data stays within Bullhorn and is never used to train public models.' Sense's AI policy, last updated July 1, 2025, says customer data is 'only used in AI models with consent' and that 'Clients may opt out of training contributions.' These are vendor statements as read on October 1, 2026, not Precision AI OS guarantees and not contract terms. Put the requirement in your contract.
