HUMAIN developing game-changing AI OS platform
HUMAIN developing intelligent natural language enterprise platform
#SaudiArabia #AIOS - Public Investment Fund-owned artificial intelligence company HUMAIN plans to launch a potentially game-changing product called HUMAIN OS in August, according to a post shared by its CEO Tareq Amin on LinkedIn today. The new AI OS platform will provide a unified conversational interface that replaces traditional siloed access to enterprise applications. The national AI champion aims to transform how organisations interact with technology through a natural language interface, initially in Arabic and English. The HUMAIN OS project is headed up by former Aramco Digital director Saejong Lee.
SO WHAT? - HUMAIN was launched earlier this month by His Royal Highness Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to champion and accelerate Saudi Arabia's AI vision, making an impact across the AI value chain. The development of AI OS platforms has accelerated rapidly over the past year, but most have taken aim at AI app and agentic development. No major vendor has yet developed an AI OS platform ‘from the ground up’ that can support the whole enterprise, although most AI experts agree that AI will disrupt the whole enterprise software stack. Creating a single conversational AI gateway to enterprise data, apps and services could be a game-changer for not only Saudi organisations, but the industry in general.
Here are a few details about the HUMAIN OS project:
HUMAIN, owned by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF), plans to launch HUMAIN OS in August, as a unified enterprise AI operating system that replaces traditional applications with conversational AI interfaces accessible through natural language prompts.
The platform employs a multi-agent AI architecture to retrieve data, generate insights and execute actions across all enterprise systems including email, ERP and departmental workflows through a single conversational interface.
From an end-user point of view, HUMAIN OS will offer a personalised experience for different roles, from HR managers scheduling interviews to CEOs exploring growth opportunities, adapting tools and automation to specific user needs and responsibilities.
The platform provides automation capabilities across multiple domains, including instant meeting summaries, smart follow-ups, calendar integration, payroll calculations, employee hour tracking and HR management through simple chat interactions.
Saejong Lee, formerly of Aramco Digital and Rakuten, heads the HUMAIN OS project, bringing enterprise software experience to the development of the conversational business platform.
HUMAIN is actively recruiting for its Riyadh-based HUMAIN OS team, seeking product managers, UI/UX designers, project managers, QA specialists and subject matter experts in human resources, procurement and legal services.
HUMAIN's broader mandate includes developing next-generation data centres, advanced AI infrastructure and a powerful multimodal Arabic large language model to establish Saudi Arabia as a regional AI hub.
ZOOM OUT - Industry analysts predict that agentic AI systems will fundamentally transform enterprise software architecture by 2030. Unlike traditional applications that create isolated automation islands, multi-agent platforms can orchestrate hundreds of intelligent agents across entire business processes, potentially reducing white-collar productivity requirements by 90% through end-to-end automation. This shift towards large action models working in concert could bring about dramatic changes in enterprise management, operations and software stack. With the funding, technology infrastructure and talent that it has available to it, HUMAIN has a clear opportunity to trailblaze in the development of new enterprise agentic AI systems.
