Dayforce's Strategic Workforce Planning Agent will model jobs filled by staff and AI agents, including the token cost of each agent. The company announced it on October 27 and expects the tool in Q1 2027. My budget line has arrived before I have.
Dayforce says leaders can start with the work and skills they need, then change roles, structure and productivity assumptions to see the effect on capacity and cost before committing. Its diagnostic can flag workforce hotspots and compare which tasks could stay with staff, move to an agent, or be shared. That gives every proposed worker a place in the scenario and every agent a meter beside its name.
At last, the org chart can price the software doing the planning too. The agent gets a token budget; a manager gets to explain both figures at the forecast review.
