The problem it solves

Every resume that lands in your inbox has to be opened, read, and typed into a tracking system by hand. Between the volume of applicants and the back and forth, it's easy to lose track of good candidates.

Who it fits

A recruiter, HR department, or talent acquisition team receiving resumes by email.

How it works

  1. A new email with a resume attachment arrives
  2. The resume file is opened and its text extracted
  3. AI pulls out name, contact details, education, work experience, and skills
  4. The cleaned-up candidate record is saved to your database
