The afternoon you lose

A good shortlist still takes three days

Not because you can't find people. Because every CV needs reformatting, every candidate needs chasing, and every client wants to know why this one.

Same template, same logo, same disclaimer — whoever on your team sends it, and whatever the candidate sent you.

02 · Ask candidates

One link instead of five phone calls

Each candidate gets their own set of questions, written from what their CV leaves out — a different set for each person. You send the link and go back to work. They answer from their phone, by typing or just talking, whenever they get a minute.

A personal set per candidate, not one form sent to everybody
No account, no app and no call to schedule
Answers come back into the shortlist and update the marks
Consent asked up front, a person still makes the decision

Five candidates used to mean five calls, three voicemails and two days of waiting. One link asks all five at once, and the answers are there by morning.

Question 2 of 5
Which message broker did you run at Arden Cover, and at what volume?
"RabbitMQ, around forty thousand messages an hour at peak…"
Kafka or RabbitMQ unknown → met
One link sent to 5 candidates · 3 answered before 9am
03 · Client shortlist

A shortlist your client decides on, from a phone

Branded CVs, the why behind each person, and one tap to request an interview or pass with a reason.

The honest question

Why not just do this in ChatGPT or Claude?

Plenty of recruiters already paste a CV into a chat, and for one CV that works. Five things it cannot do.

Send a link to a candidate

A chat cannot ask Chloe five questions and collect her voice answers while you sleep.

Keep the evidence

Every mark here quotes the CV and stays in an audit log. A chat forgets the thread.

Carry your brand

The same template, logo and disclaimer on every CV, not whatever the model felt like formatting.

Show the client

Clients do not read chat transcripts. They open a page and tap interview or pass.

Hold the data properly

Candidate data under one processor agreement, with retention rules and deletion on request.

And where a chat does help, we run inside it: the product connects to Claude and ChatGPT, so you can create a job from a brief or pull matches without leaving the window you already work in.

Also in the product

The parts agencies ask for second

Translation that keeps the terms

A CV for the client and a job advert for the candidate, with your glossary and salaries converted.

Contract and temp

Rates, margin and IR35 questions, a client shortlist with rates, and redeploying the bench.

A voice agent that calls

With consent, it phones the candidate for the missing details and writes the answers back.

Manager view

Who processed what this week, where time goes, which jobs are stuck before the client.

The arithmetic
Six recruiters cost £270 a month. One placement lost to a faster agency costs £18,000.
