In this episode of Spilling the Tea on HR Tech, Stacey Harris & Cliff Stevenson dig into the market shifts reshaping how organizations buy, build, and use HR technology. From AI-first HRMS platforms launched by former Workday leaders to global expansion plays from companies like PrismHR, the competitive landscape is moving fast — and the stakes for HR leaders have never been higher.

We cover what's actually changing (and what's just noise), including the growing demand for trusted, clean data as the foundation for any meaningful AI application, the emergence of outcome-based pricing models, and why compliance and transparency aren't optional features — they're table stakes.

Plus, a preview of what's ahead in Sapient Insights Group's upcoming Annual HR Systems Survey and what the data is already telling us about where the market is headed.
