AI-powered customer conversation platform for B2C messaging at scale
Bring WhatsApp, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Telegram, email and web chat into one shared inbox so no customer thread gets lost between apps.
AI agents qualify leads, answer routine questions, route to the right teammate and follow up automatically when conversations go quiet.
Track tags, custom fields, lead status and lifecycle stage per contact, and move deals through a pipeline without a separate CRM.
Reach thousands of customers with one message, and capture new leads directly from social ads and website links.

The agent recruits, you manage talent
The agent continuously searches 400M+ profiles, identifies strong fits before they apply and sends each a personalised outreach message for every open role.
Every applicant is scored against up to 14 job criteria with visible reasoning, then messaged directly to confirm interest and close information gaps before reaching a recruiter.
Requisitions, pipelines, interview kits and scorecards, interview scheduling, offer letters with e-signatures and integrated background checks in one platform.
Publish jobs to 200+ boards in 100+ countries and build branded career sites with a drag-and-drop editor, plus LinkedIn and Indeed Apply integration.
