and your data stays yours

Your next great hire
is already in the pile.
Don't make them wait.

Start with your try-out journey. One recruiter seat, real candidates, real screening. You'll know within 2 weeks whether it works for you.

Every applicant gets a real response

Automated, evidence-based feedback for every candidate — what matched, what didn't, how to improve. Not a template. A real explanation. It costs your team nothing and builds a reputation worth having.

Your AI model. Your scoring logic.

Connect OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or your own endpoint. Your evaluation criteria run on your chosen model — not ours. No black box. No vendor lock-in on the intelligence layer.

Pipeline insight that stays with you

Know which stages are too slow, which channels bring your best hires, and where candidates drop off. This knowledge is yours permanently — it doesn't leave with the recruiter when the contract ends.

We don't replace your judgment — we make sure you never have to waste it. By the time you sit down to decide, the noise is already gone and only the candidates who matter are in front of you.

Bring Your Own AI

Your model.
Your criteria.
Your control.

Every other ATS locks you into their scoring model. PolpoHire lets you connect any major LLM provider — or your own endpoint. Your evaluation logic runs on the model you trust, not the one we profit from.

Useful for finance, healthcare, and enterprise teams with AI procurement requirements — and for any team that doesn't want a black box making hiring decisions.

The platform, up close

Real product screenshots. Click any image to explore full-size.

See every candidate's journey at a glance

Know exactly where every candidate stands, what's next, and where things slow down. One view, always current — so your team spends time talking to candidates instead of chasing updates.

Understand what's working — and what isn't

See where candidates drop off, which stages take too long, and which channels bring your best hires. Make improvements you can actually measure, not just feel.

One workspace for the whole hiring team

Recruiters, hiring managers, and interviewers collaborate in one place. Review profiles, leave structured feedback, and move candidates forward — no more email chains or lost notes.

Full audit trail, zero guesswork

Every action is logged — who did what, when, and why. When someone asks a compliance question, you answer it in seconds, not hours.

GDPR handled, not dreaded

Access, erasure, portability, objection — manage every data subject request from one dashboard with clear statuses, deadlines, and exportable evidence. Compliance that doesn't slow you down.

Give every candidate a respectful experience

Even applicants who aren't selected receive clear, professional feedback — what matched, what didn't, and how to improve. It costs your team nothing and turns a rejection into a moment of respect.

Pipeline Analytics

The knowledge that stays
when the agency leaves

Embedded recruiters take their process knowledge with them. PolpoHire's pipeline analytics are permanently yours — which stages are slow, which channels work, where candidates drop off.

GDPR & Compliance

Audit-ready.
Always.

When a third-party recruiter embeds into your team, your GDPR exposure increases. PolpoHire is the opposite — compliance is the infrastructure, not an add-on.

Immutable audit log

Every action logged — who, what, when. Searchable by actor, entity, and timeframe.

Data subject request centre

Access, erasure, portability, objection — one dashboard with deadlines and exportable evidence.

Automated retention & purge

Configurable retention policies. Data is anonymised or deleted on schedule without manual steps.

AI blocking on GDPR flags

When a candidate objects to profiling, AI processing and automation halt automatically.

How it works

You make the decisions.
We handle the rest.

PolpoHire takes the operational weight off your shoulders — the screening, the scheduling, the follow-up, the feedback. What remains is the work that matters most: understanding what your team needs and finding the right person.

Your team reviews a curated shortlist. The platform handles everything around it. Fewer hours per hire, better outcomes, and a candidate experience you can be proud of.
