Darwinbox brings leave requests, expenses and hiring tasks into Claude

HR software maker Darwinbox launched a connector for Claude on November 11. It gives Claude access to more than 280 Darwinbox tools, including over 100 actions, so staff can do HR tasks in a chat.

Employees can apply for leave, fix attendance records, ask for a shift change or file an expense report. Recruiters can shortlist candidates, schedule interviews, record feedback, send pre-offers in bulk and start onboarding. The connector also opens Darwinbox's recruiter, employee support and onboarding agents, with interactive screens inside Claude. For wider questions, Claude can use a map of the company's people, roles, policies and workflows.

Each action runs as the signed-in user and follows that person's Darwinbox role. Users only see and do what their role allows. Claude asks the user to confirm every update before anything changes in Darwinbox. The connector is available now in the Claude Marketplace.

What it means for your work

  • For employees: Ask Claude to file a leave request or an expense, then check the details before you confirm.
  • For recruiters: Run shortlists and interview scheduling from one conversation.
  • For HR admins: Review role permissions in Darwinbox first, because the connector follows them.

Claude also added new shared work files this week. See our report on Claude Sheets and Whiteboards.
