NEW YORK, Oct. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fusemachines Inc. (NASDAQ: FUSE) (“Fusemachines” or the “Company”), a leading provider of enterprise AI products and services, today announced the rollout of compliance features in HireFoundry.ai, including a new AI Usage Consent Module designed to help enterprises navigate evolving state requirements for AI use in hiring. The features bring candidate disclosures, adaptable consent workflows and controls over AI participation into the interview experience, helping reduce compliance complexity for enterprises hiring across all 50 states.
As states introduce and revise rules governing AI in employment, enterprises face a growing patchwork of requirements around candidate notification, consent and the collection and analysis of interview data. Employers cannot rely on a single nationwide consent standard that resolves every hiring use case. Requirements differ by jurisdiction, the technology used and its role in the hiring process, creating a challenging legal and operational landscape for organizations recruiting across state lines.
