around 90%
HR queries resolved correctly on first contact, as stated by Lloyds1
What it took
Cost, team size and timeline were not disclosed in the sources.
The problem
HR teams in a large bank field many routine questions from colleagues. Lloyds Banking Group says its AI HR assistant now handles these queries and reduces the administrative workload on those teams.
What they built
Lloyds Banking Group runs an AI HR assistant for colleagues. It answers HR queries and is one of the generative AI tools the bank listed in its 2025 results release.
How they did it
The sources give little about the build. The release says the bank deployed over 50 generative AI solutions in 2025 and does not describe the HR assistant's design, data or model.
Results
Lloyds says the assistant resolves around 90% of HR queries correctly on first contact. It describes this as rapid, reliable support for colleagues that reduces administrative workload across HR teams. This is Lloyds' own claim.
Lessons for your project
Define success as getting it right the first time. Lloyds measures correct answers on first contact, not just chat volume.
Pick an internal service with a steady stream of repeat questions. HR queries are a typical example.
Free up the specialists. Lloyds frames the benefit as less administrative work for HR teams.
