AI Recruiting Agent by CogniAgent
CogniAgent's AI Recruiting Agent is a SaaS conversational AI tool that automates the first stage of hiring. It engages every applicant instantly across text, WhatsApp, email, web chat, or voice, replies in under 60 seconds, screens against role-specific criteria, and books interviews without pulling in a manager. The agent asks customized questions about availability, experience, certifications, and location, adapts to candidate answers, and filters out unqualified applicants before they reach the interview stage. It handles candidate questions about pay, schedule, location, and requirements using only the job description, never improvising. The platform also follows up with non-responsive candidates on a preset cadence and routes them to manual review or clears them from the pipeline. All candidate data, answers, and recorded consent are synced to an ATS, CRM, Google Sheets, or any of 2,700+ connected platforms. Built for high-turnover businesses such as restaurants, cleaning, security, HVAC, and auto repair, the agent is designed to run the first stage of hiring continuously, reducing time-to-response and manual screening effort.
