Recruitment / ATS

An applicant tracking system that has actually read every CV

Castia Recruit runs your whole hiring pipeline — requisitions, stages, scorecards, offers — on top of an AI that reads every application, ranks it against the role, and tells you why.

The challenge

What this looks like today

Hundreds of applications per role, and nobody has time to read past the first thirty.
Strong candidates get rejected because a keyword filter missed how they phrased their experience.
Interview feedback lives in five people's notes, so the hiring decision is a meeting, not a record.
Nobody can answer "why is this role still open after nine weeks?" without rebuilding the funnel by hand.
The product

Everything you'd expect from Castia Recruit

The features you'd want from any tool in this category — because this is a product, not a plugin.

Requisitions & pipelines

Open a role, define its stages, and move candidates through a pipeline your team can see at a glance.

Candidate profiles

One record per candidate: CV, contact history, interview notes, and every touchpoint across the process.

Interview scorecards

Structured feedback per stage, so the decision rests on comparable evidence instead of the loudest opinion.

Approvals & offers

Route headcount approvals and offer sign-off through the people who need to see them, with a full audit trail.

Compliance-ready records

Right-to-work checks, retention windows, and an audit trail for every rejection reason.

Hiring dashboards

Time-to-hire, source effectiveness, funnel drop-off, and pipeline health per role and per recruiter.

Powered by Castia AI

…and everything you can’t get anywhere else

Castia Recruit is built on the Castia platform — so enterprise search, knowledge AI, reporting, workflow automation, and agents all apply directly to your work.

CV parsing that understands context

Every CV is read, not keyword-scanned. Skills, seniority, and career trajectory are extracted even when the candidate never uses your vocabulary.

Semantic candidate matching

Rank every applicant against the actual job description, and search your whole historical pipeline for the person you already rejected two roles ago.

Interview summarisation

Turn a recorded or written interview into a structured scorecard with evidence quoted back to the source.

Sourcing agents

An agent that works a shortlist for you: screen inbound applications overnight, flag the top ten, and draft the outreach.

Ask your pipeline anything

"Which senior backend candidates did we lose at offer stage this year, and why?" — answered from your data, with citations.

Open source

Open source. Free to start. Pay only for what the AI does.

Most applicant tracking systems bill per recruiter, so hiring managers get read-only logins and the pipeline stops being shared. Castia doesn't. Add every interviewer, every hiring manager, the whole panel — you pay for what the AI does, not for who logs in.
