Omni HR Launches Mino, the First AI Agent Built on Unified APAC HR Data

With Mino, Omni becomes the first AI-native HR and payroll platform built for multi-country teams in Asia.

SINGAPORE, June 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Omni HR today launched Mino, the first AI agent built on unified HR and payroll data for multi-country teams in Asia. Available now in early access to Omni customers, beginning with analytics and recruitment and rolling out across every stage of the employee lifecycle Omni manages.

Omni is the all-in-one HR and multi-country payroll platform for Asia, running hiring, people operations, performance, and payroll in one place. Most HR software in the region was built for a single country, a single function, and a previous generation of technology — leaving teams to stitch together systems and the data fragmented across all of them. Omni's own State of AI in HR report found that fragmented data, not AI capability, is what holds HR teams in Asia back. Because Omni stores employee data in one centralized system, Mino gets the full context of a business that most agents will never have access to.

Mino, Omni's Super Agent for Work

Mino answers questions, analyzes data, and takes action in plain language, always scoped to the access each user already holds. Ask it to surface a candidate shortlist, turn headcount data into a dashboard, or pull an employee's job history — and it returns the answer or takes the action, without switching tools or chasing an admin. It is designed to reason across every module Omni runs, getting more capable as each additional module comes online, spanning people data, compensation, payroll, and performance. It is an intelligence layer across the whole platform, not a chatbot sitting beside it. As the modules connect, Mino coordinates specialized sub-agents that work across HR, payroll, IT, and beyond — giving teams an always-on capability that operates around the clock.

Built on Enterprise-Grade Security

Mino operates entirely within each company's existing role-based permissions. Every user sees only what they are already authorized to access, and every action Mino takes is logged. As new modules and sub-agents become available, the same permission model governs them. Access does not expand because the agent does. Mino is built to meet the security and compliance standards that enterprise teams are already held to.

"Every HR platform will eventually offer AI features and agentic workflows. What makes Mino different is that the data, the compliance logic, and the security model were purpose-built to support it, not adapted from a system designed for something else."

Brian Ip, CEO, Omni HR

Mino is available now in early access for Omni HR customers. To see it, book a demo at omnihr.co.

Novonesis, a global biosolutions leader, will demonstrate how biosolutions can support more efficient food production while enhancing taste, texture, and nutritional quality that can provide benefits to Korean consumers.

SEOUL, South Korea, June 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- As Korean food producers navigate rising input costs, margin pressure, and raw material price volatility, biosolutions — microbes, enzymes, and proteins — offer new opportunities to improve operational efficiency and meet evolving consumer demands.

At this year's Seoul Food & Hotel, Korea's largest food and hospitality trade show, global biosolutions leader Novonesis is demonstrating how biosolutions can help address key challenges that the Korean food industry is facing.

Biosolutions can help food producers enhance taste and texture, create cleaner ingredient labels, reduce waste, and improve production efficiency. Across applications such as yogurt, cheese, meat, baked goods, and plant-based products, producers can achieve more with less while maintaining high standards for taste, texture, and food safety.

"Korean consumers are both health and quality conscious, and more aware of labels than ever. Food producers are facing cost volatility and pressure to perform more efficiently. Seoul Food & Hotel 2026 is a great opportunity for us to connect with producers and show firsthand how biosolutions can help them navigate both." says Yo Miyashita, Head of Food & Beverage Biosolutions Japan and Korea.

Visitors at the Novonesis booth can engage with technical specialists and account managers, and taste yogurt and fish cake samples for themselves, to explore how our lactic acid bacterial cultures and enzymes can be customized and tailored across a wide range of foods to enhance taste, texture, and shelf life.

At the event, Novonesis will also introduce a new transglutaminase solution to the Korean market. This enzyme helps improve texture, elasticity, and protein binding across applications such as meat, seafood, and plant-based products, helping producers achieve more consistent quality, improve slicing yield, and reduce production inefficiency.

Novonesis will participate in Seoul Food & Hotel 2026 from 9–12 June at booth number 2F603. The company will showcase solutions across a wide range of industries not limited to food areas. Novonesis' Human Health Biosolutions offer probiotics, enzymes, and specialized proteins to support evolving health and nutritional needs and Planetary Health Biosolutions help industrial players reduce reliance on fossil-based chemicals and drive higher yields from fewer resources.

Ancient practice, modern scale

For thousands of years, fermentation has been at the heart of food culture, used to preserve, enhance flavor, and improve nutrition. Korea knows this from history: kimchi, doenjang, and ganjang are all products of biology doing what it has always done, naturally.

That biological heritage runs deep in Korean everyday life. Koreans are among the world's most enthusiastic consumers of enzymes and probiotic supplements, taken daily to support digestion and gut health.

Novonesis takes the same biological approach to industrial scale, applying it across food and biotics solutions to improve everyday food and support healthier living.

About Novonesis
Novonesis is leading the era of biosolutions.
By leveraging the power of microbiology with science, we transform the way the world produces, consumes and lives. In more than 30 industries around the world, our biosolutions are already creating value for thousands of customers and benefiting the planet.
Our 11,000 people worldwide work closely with our partners and customers to transform business with biology.
