Workforce analytics for Workday

Ask about your Workday data in plain English.

DaySight MCP connects your AI assistant to Workday. Ask analytical questions about your workforce and get answers, charts and dashboards back. You sign in as yourself, so your assistant sees what you are allowed to see, and nothing more.
