The Difference

## Before vs. After

### Before MCPEngage

- Manual payroll prep

  Log into Gusto, verify hours, check PTO, approve one by one before each run

- Benefits enrollment chaos

  Email PDFs back and forth, chase employees for missing forms

- Scattered employee data

  Jump between Gusto, HRIS, and spreadsheets to answer simple questions

- Time-off request email tennis

  "Can I take Friday off?" — check calendar, check balance, reply manually

### After MCPEngage

- AI payroll review

  "Show me payroll summary for next run" — AI flags anomalies instantly

- Auto enrollment tracking

  AI reminds employees of missing forms and auto-routes to HR for approval

- Unified employee intelligence

  "How many PTO days does Sarah have left?" — instant answer from Gusto

- Natural time-off management

  "Approve Emma's PTO request for Mar 18-20" — done in one command

The Problem

## Your HR Admin Is
Drowning in Busywork

Gusto handles payroll and benefits, but your HR team still spends hours on manual tasks that could be automated.

### Payroll Prep Overhead

Every pay period: verify hours, approve time off, check bonuses, flag errors. What should take 10 minutes takes 2 hours.

### Benefits Black Hole

Open enrollment means chasing 47 employees for forms. Who enrolled? Who's still pending? You have no idea without manual checking.

### PTO Request Chaos

Requests come via Slack, email, and in-person. You manually check balances, update spreadsheets, and hope you didn't double-book coverage.

The Solution

## Three Steps to
AI-Powered HR

1

### Connect Your Gusto

Paste your Gusto API token (generated in Account Settings). MCPEngage discovers all available endpoints and builds 55+ tools automatically. No code, no configuration, no DevOps.

2

### Ask in Plain English

"Show me all employees with less than 5 PTO days left." "Approve Michael's time-off request." "What's the total payroll cost this month?" Your AI understands and acts.

3

### Automate Everything

Set up recurring workflows: auto-remind employees of missing forms, flag payroll anomalies, generate headcount reports, and sync data across your stack — all running 24/7.
