Custom AI Agents for Recruitment Agencies and Talent Teams
Screen hundreds of CVs in minutes, keep candidates engaged throughout, and coordinate interviews without the back-and-forth - built for UK recruitment.
Recruitment is a volume game with a human outcome. Your team needs to process hundreds of applications, screen candidates against complex criteria, coordinate interviews across diaries, and keep candidates engaged throughout - all whilst maintaining the personal touch that great recruitment demands. Our Custom AI agents handle the high-volume, repetitive elements of recruitment so your consultants can focus on the relationships and judgement calls that actually place candidates.
Real pain points in recruitment
Screening Volume
Popular roles receive hundreds of applications - manual CV screening means the best candidates are often lost in the volume.
Candidate Experience
Slow responses, lack of updates, and communication gaps damage your employer brand and lose candidates to competitors.
Scheduling
Coordinating interviews across multiple diaries is a time-consuming back-and-forth that delays the hiring process.
Compliance
Right-to-work checks, reference verification, and onboarding documentation are essential but administratively heavy.
Engagement
Keeping passive candidates warm and engaged requires consistent outreach that busy consultants struggle to maintain.
Data Quality
ATS data becomes stale quickly - candidate records are outdated, incomplete, or duplicated.
What we would build first for recruitment
These are the Custom AI agents that create the biggest commercial advantage in recruitment - mapped to the real workflow, team pressure points, and systems your business already uses.
AI Lead Qualification Agent
What it does: Screens incoming applications against role requirements, scoring and ranking candidates automatically.
Why it matters: Manual screening is the biggest bottleneck in recruitment - AI reduces it from days to minutes.
Workflow fit: Sits between your job postings and ATS, processing applications as they arrive.
Business value: Screen candidates 10× faster and ensure no qualified applicant is overlooked.
AI Admin Agent
What it does: Handles interview scheduling, reference checking, and onboarding documentation.
Why it matters: Administrative tasks consume consultant time that should be spent on candidate relationships.
Workflow fit: Integrates with calendars, ATS, and communication tools to coordinate all scheduling and admin.
Business value: Reduces time-to-hire by 40% by eliminating scheduling bottlenecks and admin delays.
AI Voice Agent
What it does: Conducts initial phone screens, availability checks, and candidate re-engagement calls.
Why it matters: Phone screening is essential but time-consuming - a voice agent handles the initial conversations at scale.
Workflow fit: Calls candidates to confirm interest, check availability, and conduct structured initial screens.
Business value: Allows consultants to focus on qualified candidates rather than initial screening calls.
AI Support Agent
What it does: Provides candidates with application status updates, interview details, and process guidance.
Why it matters: Candidates expect regular updates - poor communication is the top reason candidates drop out of processes.
Workflow fit: Available via email, SMS, and messaging to answer candidate queries and provide proactive updates.
Business value: Improves candidate experience scores and reduces drop-off during the hiring process.
