Here’s a double legal AI news blast.
SixFifty Launches AI Employment Research Tool
SixFifty, a HR compliance system backed by Wilson Sonsini, has announced the launch of ‘SixFifty AI’, a research tool that increases the accessibility of the company’s major employment database.
SixFifty AI, which is currently in beta and available for free to customers, offers nationwide US coverage, spanning all federal laws, all 50 states, D.C., and major cities. It provides ‘immediate answers across thousands of topics,’ they said, including:
‘Hiring: Pay transparency, drug testing, notices, posters, and training;
Leave and EEO policies: FMLA, paid leave, sick leave, accommodations, and protected characteristics;
Wage and hour: Overtime, minimum wage, and pay frequency;
Separation: Final paycheck requirements, WARN Act.’
Each query answered by SixFifty AI also includes links to source entries in SixFifty’s Research module so users can verify the accuracy of the response for themselves.
In short, it’s another example of applying LLMs to legal data and getting a lot of value from it.
Kimball Dean Parker, founder and CEO of SixFifty, said: ‘We’ve dedicated years to summarizing and organizing employment laws across the country into the most comprehensive database of employment law information available. With SixFifty AI, HR and legal teams can quickly find clear, straightforward answers to their most common questions.’
