AskTheRecruiter · AI Layoff Tracker
AI layoffs, in the employer’s own words
Every layoff we attribute to AI carries the company’s own statement, quoted verbatim, with a link to where they said it. This is the receipt behind the AI number: not inference, not press framing, the employer’s words. Filter it, quote it, check it.

3 AI attributions · 307 jobs · 2026 · each with the employer’s quote and its source.
Active Industry: Technology ✕
- Elementor AI named among the causes
“AI agents are becoming key builders, users, and navigators (Calcalist / Ctech)”
- Elastic AI named as the cause
“advances in AI and automation are letting us operate with leaner teams”
- Envato AI named among the causes
“reduce operational costs to ensure we can invest further in product, marketing and AI (SmartCompany)”
How these are chosen: a cut appears here only when the employer named AI or automation as a cause in words we can quote, confirmed by two independent passes, with the source on file. Investment in AI, a future projection, or AI used to pick who goes does not qualify. This is the strict, quotable standard; the tracker also has a broader AI-linked measure, labelled separately.
