For recruitment & staffing agencies

Recruiters should be talking to candidates, not chasing them.

AI agents that screen applications, pre-screen candidates on WhatsApp and phone, book interviews and keep joiners warm, so your recruiters spend their day on calls that close positions.

Where the hours go

The work between a job order and a joining date

Most of it is the same few steps, repeated for every candidate on every role.

Hundreds of CVs per role

Portal applications, referrals and emailed CVs land in different places, and each one is read by hand against the same JD.

Calling candidates who don't pick up

First-round calls for availability, notice period and CTC fill the morning, and many need a second or third try.

Scheduling across client panels

Matching candidate slots with client interviewers takes several messages per interview, and every no-show wastes the panel's time.

The silence between offer and joining

Notice periods run for weeks. Without regular check-ins, a counter-offer can take a candidate you have already placed.

Workflows

Workflows we build for staffing teams

Each one runs inside the tools your desk already uses. Start with the one that costs the most hours.

01

Resume screening & shortlists

Applications from job portals, email and your careers page are read, scored against the role's must-haves and ranked, with a one-line reason for each.

ApplicationsRead CVScore vs JDRanked shortlist

A recruiter approves every shortlist. Nobody is rejected silently.

02

WhatsApp & voice pre-screening

Shortlisted candidates get a WhatsApp message within minutes, or an AI call in their language, covering availability, notice period, CTC and location.

ShortlistedWhatsApp or callAnswers logged

Unclear or sensitive answers are flagged for a recruiter to call.

03

Interview scheduling & reminders

Slots are offered from the client panel's calendar and confirmed on WhatsApp. Reminders go out the day before and an hour before, and reschedules happen in the same chat.

Slot offeredConfirmedRemindersNo-reply alert

Anyone who hasn't confirmed is flagged for a call before the panel sits down.

04

Offer-to-joining follow-up

Between offer and joining date, candidates get regular check-ins and document requests. Silence or hesitation is flagged to the recruiter early.

Offer acceptedWeekly check-inDocumentsRisk alert

Recruiters handle every flagged conversation personally.

05

Client job intake & submittals

A client's JD email becomes a structured job order in your ATS. Shortlisted profiles are formatted into your client-ready submittal template.

JD emailJob orderProfilesSubmittal draft

Every submittal is reviewed before it reaches the client.

06

Timesheets & billing for contract staff

Timesheets from deployed associates are collected, checked against the PO rate and attendance, and turned into an invoice draft for each client.

TimesheetsCheck vs POInvoice draft

Mismatches go to an exceptions list, not to the client.

FAQ

Questions staffing teams ask first

Will the AI reject candidates on its own?

No. It ranks candidates and explains why. Your recruiters decide who moves forward. Hard filters, such as location or a required certification, are applied only when you set them.

Does it work with our ATS and job portals?

Yes, if they have an API or send email alerts or exports, which most ATS tools and job portals do. We confirm this on the first call before anything is scoped.

Which languages can screening run in?

WhatsApp messages and voice screening calls can run in English, Hindi and major Indian languages, including Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Bengali, Gujarati and Punjabi.

How is candidate data handled?

Everything runs in accounts you own: your ATS, your sheets and your WhatsApp Business number. Candidates are told they are talking to an automated assistant, and only the fields you need are collected.

Where should we start?

Usually with interview scheduling and reminders, or with first-round screening. On the first call we pick the step that costs your desk the most hours each week.
