HR and recruiting agents
Agents that source, screen and schedule candidates, and answer employee questions.
16 agents, each with its inputs, outputs and review level checked by a person.
HR and recruiting agents take over steps of hiring and employee support that used to need a coordinator. On the recruiting side the work splits into four jobs, and the amount of autonomy differs a lot between them.
Sourcing agents search talent databases, professional networks and the web for people who match a role, then write and send personalised outreach. They often run with little oversight, so the setting that matters is whether a recruiter approves each message. Screening agents read applications against the role, rank candidates and give reasons; they usually recommend and a recruiter decides. Scheduling agents find times across interviewers' calendars, send invites and handle reschedules, and they commonly run without approval because the stakes are low. Interviewing agents run a first-round conversation by chat, voice or video, ask set questions and return a transcript and a score for a person to review.
On the HR side, agents answer policy and benefits questions and handle routine requests from the team's own documents. The listings record what each agent needs (a job description, a calendar, an applicant tracking system, a policy library), what it returns and whether a person reviews decisions.
Choose with the rules in mind. Decisions about people are regulated in many places, and the review level on each listing shows whether the agent recommends or decides. Prefer agents that return ranked candidates with reasons, and check the integrations against your applicant tracking system before anything else.

Questions
Do AI recruiting agents reject candidates on their own?
Some can be configured to, but most rank and recommend for a recruiter to decide. The review level on each listing reflects what the vendor documents as the default. Where a tool can reject automatically, check whether candidates get a reason and whether a person can review the decision.
Does a recruiter approve outreach before it is sent?
It depends on the product and the setting. Some sourcing agents draft messages into a queue for a recruiter to edit and send; others send sequences on their own once a campaign is approved. If your employer brand matters, start with approval on and relax it once you trust the messages. The review level on each listing shows the vendor's default.
Are AI recruiting tools priced per open role or per seat?
Both are common, alongside per hire fees, credits for contacts or interviews, and annual platform contracts. Per role pricing suits teams with a few hires a year; per seat suits recruiting teams with steady volume. Many vendors price on request. The listing shows the published model where there is one and says so where pricing is not published.
Is it legal to use AI in hiring?
Rules on automated tools in hiring vary by jurisdiction and are changing. Some places set requirements on telling candidates, testing tools for bias, keeping records or giving a person the final decision. The catalogue does not give legal advice; check what applies where you hire and where candidates live before switching a tool on.
Where do candidates come from?
From your applicant tracking system, from the vendor's own talent pool, or from public profiles on the web, as each listing's inputs and integrations describe. The catalogue does not verify pool sizes vendors claim.
Will it work with my applicant tracking system?
Most recruiting agents read jobs and candidates from an applicant tracking system and write results back to it. The integrations on each listing name the systems the vendor documents. Check whether the connection reads only or also updates stages, notes and scorecards.
