The staffing industry feels like it’s hitting an inflection point.

AI, automation, and modern worker and client expectations are forcing agencies to rethink the systems that run their business. Some firms are investing heavily in new technology while others are still trying to make legacy tools stretch another few years.

The gap between those two groups is becoming noticeable.

While we’re in Austin during the forum, we’re spending time with agency leaders comparing notes on a few things we’re hearing across the industry:

• Plans to move away from bloated ATS pricing and restrictive contracts
• Where AI is actually improving recruiter productivity (and where it isn’t)
• New ways agencies are elevating the worker experience to stay competitive
• How firms are delivering the transparency clients now expect
• Which technology investments are paying off, and which aren’t
• How mid-market agencies are staying competitive with larger firms

If you’ll be around between March 23–26, it would be great to compare notes. Let me know if you have time to connect.

Building your own ATS with low-code tools feels flexible at first, until:
- A single API change breaks your automations
- Recruiter speed drops as data volume grows
- Compliance becomes an audit risk
- Your “internal tech lead” quits, and the logic leaves with them

There’s a reason top-performing agencies anchor their operations in a purpose-built platform and only build around the edges.

“Vibe-coding,” an ATS with low-code tools, isn’t innovation; it’s a slow path to becoming a software development shop. Before you start building your own tech stack, ask yourself:

- Will this still work when we double in size?
- Who owns the data when the person who built it leaves?
- Do we really want to run a staffing agency and a software team at the same time?

Full breakdown of the pros, the pitfalls, and a smarter middle ground.

66% of hiring leaders say labor shortages are holding their operations back. In a market where talent is scarce, agencies need to identify modern ways to attract and engage with workers. For instance, streamlining onboarding tasks in an easy-to-use app and providing same-day pay or other payroll incentives.
