Greetings from this year's HR Expo 👋
The event brought together over 800 passionate HR management enthusiasts for a day full of networking, insightful discussions, and engaging workshops. Attendees were eager to explore the latest innovations in products and services designed to simplify and enhance their work. Our team had the pleasure of showcasing how we’re changing the game for HR teams and seamlessly integrating data flows for contract generation with well-known HRIS tools such as Personio, Persona, HiBob, BambooHR etc.
In this article, we'll revisit the key highlights from our workshops which were hosted by Avokaado's founder and CEO, Mariana Hagström, and Product Manager, Johanna Põldsam. Prepare to gain insights into Avokaado (and aDoc 💡), discover the tangible benefits it offers to HR teams, understand the magic of HRIS integrations, and find out why Studioworks' HR Manager, Kadri, has been an enthusiastic Avokaado advocate since last year's HR Expo.
Before we dive into the details, let's hear from Mari-Ann at Salv, who shared her thoughts on our workshop:
Let's embark on this journey of HR innovation and discover how Avokaado is reshaping the landscape! 🚀
Avokaado isn't just your run-of-the-mill contract management system; it's a revolutionary solution that combines all from the Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), Document Management System (DMS) with the focus on data, and Robotic Process Automation (RPA) with the focus on workflows. Our mission is to support every function in the organisation to run their daily operations smoothly without the need to interact daily with the legal department.
What makes us truly unique? Allow me to introduce you to aDoc, or Actionable Data-Rich Document Format by Avokaado. It's not just another document format; it's the future of PDFs in our data-centric, digital world.
aDoc serves as the foundation for delivering all the remarkable features and advantages you've grown accustomed to with Avokaado. With Avokaado, we've managed to eliminate a minimum of 15 cumbersome touchpoints in your daily workflow. No more tedious data entry, endless email exchanges, waiting for replies, or redundant data input. Everything now flows seamlessly into one efficient workflow.
Now, let's delve into the five key components that make Avokaado a must-have for modern data-driven HR-s.
You can easily create contract templates using a wide range of built-in tools for even the most complex document bundles. You can automate workflows according to the document type, choosing document naming, sharing and management rules, pre-set workflows according to the company corporate governance and data retention rules. Avokaado is clause based so you can also manage all your knowledge base and contracts across locations and countries easily in one central system.
Seamless out of the box integrations with the largest number of HR tools is our forte. Avokaado effortlessly links your data and contracts to external HR systems such as Personio, BambooHR, HiBob, Workday but also with your CRM-s like Salesforce, Pipedrive and GSuit. Alternatively, you can request access to the Avokaado CLM Rest-API and easily connect your Avokaado workspace to any system your company relies on.
In Avokaado, you can collaborate with your team members and 3rd parties throughout the entire contract lifecycle. Invite viewers and editors for data input, to negotiate the terms, and add approvers and signers along the way. You can automate full cycle or have full control over the single contract workflow and easily clear up any messy processes that you've been tackling so far.
No need to leave Avokaado to get signatures. You can sign with every counterparty no matter the country by using qualified electronic signatures or electronic signatures provided by different partners such as Dokobit/Signicat and SignNow/AirSlate. Unlimited signatures are standard with every Avokaado workspace, ensuring you can sign legally binding documents with parties across the globe.
Beyond contract and workflow automation, Avokaado serves as a secure repository for all your contracts and contract data. You can organise your storage effortlessly with folders and tags, and share documents and folders seamlessly across business units, users, and groups even outside of your company if needed.
"The aDoc can be either mind-boggling or seamlessly intuitive, as it represents a completely new document format. While it signifies a significant leap in document evolution, for users, it's simplicity itself, requiring no changes in behaviour or learning new skills. The aDoc quietly underpins all the incredible functionality Avokaado offers today and sets the stage for a future where data and AI reign supreme," Mariana explains.
Picture a questionnaire-based intake form with smart fields and logic trees – that's the aDoc in action. Choose your office location, and the right signers are automatically added. Select a position, and salary details appear like magic. This is just a glimpse of the aDoc's capabilities. It's all about data – collecting, categorising, and seamlessly integrating it within Avokaado and your other tools. In the future, it will empower you to automate, analyse, and tailor everything to your preferences.
With Avokaado, you'll join the ranks of innovators leaving behind Word documents and static PDFs to embrace smart documents that do the heavy lifting for you. Welcome to the future of contract management, where efficiency and innovation are at your fingertips. 🚀

Key HR documents and workflows in Avokaado:
Sending out documents in your company branding is highly valued among our clients. Interestingly, not many other contracting solutions offer it. With Avokaado, you can make your workspace completely your own: add your brand, colours, and a custom domain.
Flexibility is the name of the game at Avokaado. We understand that one size doesn't fit all when it comes to managing contracts and business processes. That's why we empower every company to design and create its own templates, workflows, libraries, and integrations. Our pricing model grows with your company, eliminating the need to switch between different contracting solutions as you scale from startup to scaleup to enterprise.
While many contracting tools exist worldwide, Avokaado stands out by supporting local e-signing options in the Baltics, Nordics, and across Europe. This capability is a game-changer for our clients, especially those dealing with high volumes of digitally signed contracts.
Both Johanna and Mariana highlighted that our integrations with popular HRIS tools are not just functional; they're exceptional. Our partners and users consistently praise the seamless connections that enable efficient data management. Avokaado isn't a rigid system; it's an enabler that lets you design your own workflows, languages, and data connections. Here's a breakdown of our HR integration options:
