Aura

data

Aura is a company-intelligence database that recruiters, investors, and market analysts use to pull structured data on employee headcount, hiring velocity, attrition, and organizational structure across industries. When Neotask connects to Aura, the agent can run these lookups as part of a research task instead of you switching tools mid-thought: ask about a company's growth trajectory and the agent queries headcount trends directly, then folds the numbers into whatever report, comparison, or outreach list you're building. For a recruiter scoping a client account, that means pulling attrition rates and department breakdowns without leaving the conversation. For an investor doing diligence, it means checking whether a target's headcount growth matches its public narrative. Aura's underlying data covers workforce benchmarks across sectors, so the agent can compare a company against peers in the same industry rather than reporting a number in isolation.

Real workflows

Scoping a recruiting account

A recruiter asks Neotask to check whether a prospective client company has been growing or shrinking before a first outreach call. The agent queries Aura for the company's headcount trend and attrition rate over the past year, then summarizes whether the account looks like it's in an expansion phase worth prioritizing.

Pre-diligence headcount check

An investor evaluating an acquisition target asks Neotask to verify the target's reported growth against real hiring data. The agent pulls headcount and department structure from Aura, compares it to the industry benchmark, and flags any mismatch between the company's public statements and its actual staffing pattern.

Frequently asked questions

What kind of companies does Aura have data on?

Aura's database spans companies across industries with trackable headcount and hiring signals, which is why it's built for cross-industry benchmarking rather than one sector.

Can Neotask compare two companies side by side using Aura?

Yes. Because the agent can run multiple Aura queries in one task, it can pull headcount and attrition figures for several companies and lay them out in a single comparison.

Does this replace a full HR or people-analytics platform?

No. Aura is built for external research on companies you don't have internal access to, not for managing your own organization's HR data.

How current is the workforce data?

Aura tracks trends over time, so the agent can report both recent snapshots and historical trajectories rather than a single static number.

Who typically uses this integration through Neotask?

Recruiters scoping accounts, investors running diligence, and analysts building competitive workforce reports are the most common users.
