The problem it solves

Reading through every resume for open roles and deciding who's worth an interview takes hours you don't have, especially when applications pile up. Good candidates can wait days for any response, and a strong resume can easily get missed in the shuffle.

Who it fits

HR teams and small businesses hiring across multiple roles who want faster, more consistent resume screening.

How it works

  1. A candidate submits an application and resume through your form
  2. The resume is saved for your records
  3. AI reads the resume and rates the candidate against the role's requirements
  4. The score and AI notes are logged in a spreadsheet
  5. High-scoring candidates get an interview invite, and others get a reply automatically
What you get

Candidates ranked before you open a resume

Every application gets read and scored against your role's requirements, with an interview invite or reply ready for every candidate.

What you get

A scored spreadsheet of every applicant plus automatic interview invitations or reply emails.

What you need

A Google Workspace account for Drive and Sheets, an AI provider account, and an email service.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
