What's included
Emissary gives you an easy way to text and call from the pages you already use, automations that fire off UKG events, AI agents that can handle repetitive conversations and tasks, and a record of all of it where the rest of the team can see it.
Text and call candidates and employees from a local number, in a panel next to the record you're already looking at.
Trigger texts and calls from stage changes, interviews, offers, start dates and employee events — with campaigns, templates and AI agents.
Screen, schedule and answer questions for applicants and employees over text, with results written back to UKG.
Replies to campaigns, QR codes, keywords and AI agents are matched to the right candidate or employee automatically.
Every text and call summary can be written back to the UKG record automatically, so the whole team sees the full history and staying compliant is simpler.
Bring a UKG candidate pool or employee group into a campaign audience without an export.
Getting set up
About UKG Pro, Ready & WFM
UKG brings HR, payroll, talent and time together in UKG Pro and UKG Ready, and powers scheduling, timekeeping and frontline operations with UKG Workforce Management (WFM). Emissary connects to all three, so recruiting and HR teams can text and call candidates and employees — including hourly and frontline workers scheduled in WFM — from the record they already work in.
