One record per candidate
Everything the product knows about a candidate sits on one record that recruiters can review, candidates can request, and your compliance lead can export.
The whole history on one screen
Profile, documents, sources, consents, conversations, interviews, scores, decisions and notices, in the order they happened.
- Search by keyword and filter by location, availability, certifications, language and stage.
- Candidates can correct the fields we parsed from their résumé, and the change is logged.
- Access, export and deletion requests are answered within 30 days, from the same record.
An audit trail and retention rules you can show
The audit log is append-only. Retention runs on a schedule and leaves a record of what it removed.
- Reads of personal information, AI calls, messages and decisions are logged with who, what and when, and export to CSV or JSON.
- Records are kept 3 years by default. Postings, applications and notices are kept 3 years after the posting closes, as Ontario requires.
- Interview recordings are deleted 90 days after the interview unless a legal hold applies.
- Legal holds stop deletion and show on every screen that offers it.
- Expired records are anonymized first and purged later, and each run is logged.
- Each job has an export pack: posting versions, AI statements, consents, notices, decisions with their reasons, and model and prompt versions.
