Galileo®, The Josh Bersin Company’s HR AI Assistant, now available directly to 4,400+ organizations using the HiBob HR platform through a seamless integrationThe marketplace partnership brings world-class HR and manager tools to the mid-market, long underserved by professional HR support and advice
OAKLAND, Calif., May 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Josh Bersin Company, the world’s most trusted HR advisory firm, today announced the company’s first-ever technology marketplace agreement, partnering with leading mid-market HR platform HiBob to bring Galileo® to a broader audience, including managers with no formal HR background or with limited internal support within their organization.
‘One-click’ access to the same Galileo world-class tools and advice available to the largest enterprises in the world
The Josh Bersin Company confirmed that this move opens the door to thousands of organizations and individuals who have never had access to this level of professional HR support, furthering their mission to make work better for everyone on the planet.
The partnership grants all 4,400+ HiBob clients the option to purchase access to the AI-powered expertise of Galileo—effectively an automated HR consultant—via a single click in the company’s app marketplace.
As a result, organizations of all sizes, not just large enterprises, will now have access to platinum-level expertise on core people, management, and talent challenges. This will be particularly valuable for environments with limited or no dedicated HR capabilities. Galileo also serves as a tool for business users across various functions, offering guidance not only for immediate HR-related questions but also for shaping the future workplace of their rapidly growing companies.
Ronni Zehavi, HiBob’s CEO and Co-Founder, says:
“This partnership marks a significant moment—not just for HiBob, but for the future of HR itself. Galileo is more than just another AI tool in the box; it’s a leap forward in how organisations can think about talent, leadership, and decision-making. Galileo’s advanced reasoning capabilities and data-rich ecosystem represent a new era for people management, where technology enhances—not replaces—the human touch. At HiBob, we’ve always championed the smart use of technology to make work better for people. Collaborating with the Josh Bersin Company on this project reflects that conviction. What we’re seeing here is the beginning of a new chapter: one where data and empathy walk hand in hand to shape more resilient, thoughtful workplaces.”
Josh Bersin, global HR research analyst and CEO of The Josh Bersin Company, says:
“As a business owner, I’ve always had enormous admiration for the fast-growing small and mid-sized companies around the world. Their management and HR challenges are every bit as complex as those of large enterprises.
“Now, through this partnership, every manager and HR professional, regardless of the organization’s size, has access to a super-powered HR business partner—unlocking sophisticated HR intelligence for environments that previously couldn’t benefit from such advanced tools.
“It’s amazing to see how quickly Galileo’s evolution has progressed. In just a few short months, we’ve moved from offering Galileo to Fortune 100 companies to now opening its doors to thousands of organizations that have never had access to this level of professional HR support before.
“Through our partnership with HiBob, managers and HR professionals will have ‘one-click’ access to the same Galileo world-class tools and advice available to the largest enterprises in the world.”
