What it does

Built for how staffing firms actually run.

Candidate screening and qualification

AI calls applicants within minutes of submission, runs your screening script, captures experience, availability, salary expectations, and right-to-work. Only qualified candidates reach a recruiter.

Interview scheduling

AI checks recruiter and hiring-manager calendars, handles time-zone math, books first-round interviews, and sends reminders. No more back-and-forth emails.

Reference check coordination

AI runs the reference call workflow: contacts references, asks your structured questions, records responses, and files back to the candidate record. Saves recruiters hours per placement.

Job alert follow-ups

AI contacts candidates when a role matches their profile. Warm, informed, on-brand. Moves passive candidates into active pipeline without recruiter lift.

Client hiring manager intake

New client called for a req? AI captures role details, must-haves, nice-to-haves, salary band, and timeline, then books a scoping call with the right recruiter or BD.

Multilingual candidate support

Placing across borders? AI speaks 100+ languages. Screen candidates in their native tongue, then hand a clean, translated summary to your English-speaking team.

Why now

The candidate market moves in hours. Your recruiters work in days.

Applications pile up overnight

AI calls every applicant within minutes, whether it is 9am or 11pm. The best candidates are reached first.

Screening calls eat recruiter time

AI runs the first-round screen. Recruiters only meet candidates who passed the script and scored against the req.

Reference checks delay placements

AI chases references in parallel, asks structured questions, and files responses to the ATS. Days become hours.

Multilingual placements need translators

AI speaks 100+ languages, screens in the candidate's native tongue, hands a clean summary to your team.

01

Candidate applies or client calls

AI calls every new applicant within minutes. For inbound client calls, AI picks up instantly and takes the req.

02

AI screens and schedules

Runs your screen, scores against the req, books interview with the right recruiter. Coordinates reference calls in parallel.

03

ATS updated, recruiter prepped

Candidate record updated, scorecard attached, interview on the calendar, references filed. Recruiter walks in ready.

What you get from us

Your partner, not just a tool.

Every firm runs differently. We build around your verticals, your screening scripts, and your recruiter specialties. Not a self-serve template you configure alone.

Week 1

Discovery and configuration

We map your screening scripts by role type, recruiter specialties, interview workflows, and escalation rules. We listen to top-recruiter calls to capture your firm's voice.

Week 2

Build and test

We build your AI recruiter, connect it to your ATS (Bullhorn, JobDiva, Vincere, etc.) and calendars, and run test calls across screening, scheduling, and reference scenarios. You review before go-live.

Ongoing

Weekly calibration

Your account manager reviews transcripts weekly, updates scripts as your reqs evolve, and flags candidates needing human attention. Not a ticket queue.

Integrations

Connects to the tools your firm already uses.

AI writes candidate records, interview notes, and reference reports straight into your ATS. No double entry.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

For the first screening pass, yes. AI runs your script, captures experience, availability, salary expectations, right-to-work status, and notice period, then scores against the req. Recruiters only spend time on candidates who pass the screen.
Within minutes of application. The best candidates are in the market for days, not weeks. AI reaches them before your competitors even open their ATS inbox.
Yes. AI calls the references the candidate provided, runs your structured questions, records responses, and files them to the ATS. What used to take a recruiter 45 minutes per candidate takes zero.
Most firms go live in about two weeks. Week 1 is discovery and configuration: we map your screening scripts, recruiter specialties, interview workflows, and escalation rules. Week 2 is build and test: we connect to your ATS and calendar systems, run test calls, and let you review recordings before go-live.
AI handles the routine 80 percent: screening, scheduling, reference coordination, job alerts, client intake. For offers, complex negotiations, or sensitive conversations, AI transfers to the right recruiter and briefs them with the full call context first, so neither side has to repeat themselves.
