Paycom Launches AI-Powered IWant Tool for Instant Workforce Data Access

Paycom Software has launched IWant, an AI tool that allows users to instantly access and interact with employee data within their unified database. IWant eliminates software navigation and provides accurate responses drawn from a single source of truth. CEO Chad Richison called it Paycom's most significant release since its founding. Industry expert Steve Boese praised Executive Mode, while pilot clients highlighted its ease of use and ability to democratize access to data. PAYC currently trades at $237.93.

Paycom Software, Inc. (PAYC) has recently unveiled IWant, an innovative AI tool designed to revolutionize the way users interact with employee data within its unified database. Launched on July 30, 2025, IWant is a voice- and text-activated, command-driven AI engine that eliminates the need for traditional software navigation. Users can access accurate, up-to-date information about employees, including pay history, benefits, and tax withholdings, by simply typing a question or using voice commands [1].

CEO Chad Richison hailed IWant as Paycom's most significant release since its founding in 1998. "Command-driven automation marks the beginning of the future of all software. Navigation, information gathering, and asking others for information will soon become obsolete. IWant gives you all of the information and access without needing to know how to use the system," Richison stated [2].

The AI tool is available to clients on mobile through Employee Self-Service® and Manager on-the-Go® (both located in the Paycom app) and on desktop through the client login page. It supports a wide range of queries for employees, HR professionals, and managers, providing instant access to employee data and workforce insights [1].

Industry expert Steve Boese praised the tool's Executive Mode, noting its potential to transform how leaders interact with company data and lead with data. An executive in the distribution industry who participated in the client pilot of IWant expressed his satisfaction with the tool's ease of use and its ability to democratize access to data [2].

Paycom's unique, single-database software design ensures seamless data flow across its HR suite, eliminating inaccuracies associated with duplicate or disparate data. IWant pulls information from this single source, ensuring accurate and consistent results [1].

As of July 2, 2025, Paycom Software, Inc. (PAYC) is trading at $237.93 on the NYSE [1].
