What it does

Each morning this checks who is starting that day, builds a personalized voice greeting in each person's language, and sends it straight to the new hire as a Slack direct message so it's waiting when they log in.

When to use it

Use this when new hires are already in your Slack workspace before day one and you want their first interaction to feel personal and on-brand. Best for teams that batch start dates (e.g. Monday cohorts).

How it works

  1. 1A daily schedule triggers early in the morning.
  2. 2The workflow queries the HR table in Postgres for anyone whose start date is today, pulling name, manager, role, and preferred language.
  3. 3A filter skips the run entirely if no one starts today.
  4. 4OpenAI writes a manager-voiced welcome script localized to each hire's language.
  5. 5ElevenLabs renders the greeting to audio.
  6. 6The clip and a short welcome note are sent as a Slack DM to the new hire.
