How AI Agents are Transforming Employee Offboarding

The traditional offboarding process is broken. It usually involves a checklist, a generic exit interview with HR, and a request to "upload your files to the shared drive."

The result? A digital graveyard of unorganized folders that no one ever looks at again.

Enter the AI Offboarding Agent

Imagine an AI that interviews the departing employee, but not just about why they're leaving. It asks about how they did their job.

"Hey Mike, I noticed you handle the weekly reporting. Can you walk me through that process step-by-step?"

The AI then:

1. Transcribes the conversation.
2. Extracts the key steps and login details.
3. Generates a clean, searchable how-to guide.
4. Links related documents and files automatically.

This isn't science fiction. It's what platforms like Custodesk are doing today, turning the chaotic exit process into a structured knowledge transfer engine.
