“The SixFifty AI feature is my favorite. It’s like a Google for employment law—but better.” – Angela Hayes
The challenge
Becoming a single-person HR consultancy required modern, time-saving tools
When Angela Hayes set out to start her solo consultancy Senta, after 20 years managing HR and employee relations in-house for large corporations, she knew she needed help.
For Hayes, it also meant she would have to get back in the weeds of writing policies, updating handbooks, and preparing hiring agreements for clients—but the way she used to do it was long outdated.
“This is how I used to do it,” said Hayes, plopping down a thousand-page book of California labor laws on her desk. “I would have to look through the table of contents, and if I didn’t know the name of the law, I might miss something, or advise incorrectly. Or I’d have outdated books because these were expensive, and my previous employers didn’t buy them for us all the time.”
“Even as the internet evolved and we could do the research online, I would have to go to literally dozens, if not hundreds, of websites.”
To keep up with the day-to-day grind of tracking employment law changes across 50 states for her clients and consistently provide reliable advice, a process change was in order.
Hayes needed a platform that could allow her to create modern policies and update handbooks with ease, while automatically ensuring clients’ compliance with the law, without relying on potentially unreliable information from Google or ChatGPT.
That’s why she turned to SixFifty.

3 ways SixFifty AI supercharged Senta’s compliance offerings
Vetted Info
Vetted Info
You shouldn’t have to cross your fingers and hope your compliance sources are accurate, but that’s the reality with most AI tools.
In contrast, SixFifty AI draws its information directly from within SixFifty’s database of human-vetted research entries instead of the open web. This helps mitigate inaccuracies and outdated info.
“For me—because I’ve actually tested this where I’ve asked SixFifty AI a question, then I’ve gone to a chatGPT, or Google AI Mode, and compared answers—it’s very clear that SixFifty is built off of employment law,” said Hayes.

“Some of these laws are really lengthy,” said Hayes. “They’re really complex, they’re really nuanced, and a client sometimes has questions. And so [for SixFifty] to be able to put that into a really effective and clear summary, I found those to be really effective.”
“And what I like the most is that there are actual links directly to the laws. So anything that I ask about, it links out to the EEOC, ADA, Department of Labor, and I can read the law specifically if I need to, or provide that to my client if I need to, and it’s all there at my fingertips.”
Precise Entries
Precise Entries
SixFifty doesn’t provide generic compliance language, but specific requirements and action items for every area of employment law—including wage, job posting requirements, pay transparency, non-competes, separation, and more.
“Even between cities like San Francisco and Berkeley, the laws are different,” said Hayes. “Google and ChatGPT don’t catch that detail, but SixFifty does. The way SixFifty breaks it down into clear summaries is so effective.”
“I can’t imagine being an HR practitioner and not using SixFifty at this point. It gives me confidence that I’m up to date, that I’m accurate, and that I’m delivering real value.” – Angela Hayes
