AI interviewer

Phone-interviews every applicant, day or night

Applicants call in when they’re free, or it calls them. It asks your questions in their language, follows up when an answer is thin, and scores every answer against your rubric.

You make the call

It reports. You decide.

The agents never accept or reject anyone. Every score comes with its reasoning, the transcript and the recording, and you choose who moves forward.

  • Same questions, same order, same rubric for every applicant
  • Never asks about age, health, family, religion or national origin
  • Always says it is an AI, and tells every caller the call is recorded
  • Every call recorded and transcribed, so you can show how each decision was made

“We used to lose 45 minutes per candidate scheduling the call, taking it, and writing it up. Now we send a link, the candidate does the screen whenever it suits them, and I review it on my own time in about five minutes. That time went straight back to our team.”
