The problem

Jobs receive more applications than ever. More noise, less signal.
The talent is still there, traditional screening makes it harder to find.

AI made applying effortless. Recruiters can’t assess real skills for thousands of candidates, and strong candidates go unnoticed.

The best candidates, lost among thousands

More applications. Applications now take minutes to send. With volume increasing, the strongest candidates become invisible.

all reading the same

Less signal. AI-polished CVs and written answers look increasingly alike. Paper no longer shows who can do the job.

Fair by design

Proprietary, evidence-driven scoring. Transcript-only — no accent, appearance, or demographic signal ever enters the rubric. Every score cites transcript evidence; fairness is monitored separately through adverse-impact testing, including selection-rate analysis under the 4/5ths rule.

Talent is everywhere

Find the talent
your CV screen misses.

FairShot combines CV context with demonstrated performance, helping your team identify strong candidates who would otherwise remain buried in the applicant pool.

1 in 3top-performing candidates are missed by traditional CV screening.

From application to interview-ready, in one funnel.

01

Triage the long list

Light triage plus CV ranking against your criteria — the top ~40–50% advance to the full interview, capturing 82% of top talent.

02

Assess in conversation

Each advancing candidate joins a 20–30 minute adaptive AI interview. Voice, exhibits, real follow-up. Built for your role and hiring bar.

03

Score from transcripts

A multi-stage pipeline produces a structured scorecard per dimension. Every score cites the exact transcript turn that justified it.

04

Your recruiters decide

Evidence-backed profiles, reviewed by your team. Partners and hiring managers spend their hours on candidates who've already demonstrated the ability.

The outcome

Better hires, weeks sooner.

Same five finalists, two clocks. With FairShot they are in first-round interviews by day three. The traditional funnel watches its best names sign elsewhere, week after week, until only one is left. Speed decides who you get.

Candidate experience

Candidates love it.

20–30 minutes. Real questions, real answers — and a defensible score either way. The format candidates actually want to be assessed in.

Built for enterprise

Trust, fairness and control, built in the architecture.

Anti-cheat by construction

Full-screen and webcam monitoring, behavioural integrity checks, and randomised questions and exhibits.

Candidates must reason aloud and respond to adaptive follow-ups, making FairShot far harder to game than static tests or one-way video.

Bias-free, evidence-driven

Transcript-only scoring means no facial, voice, accent, appearance or biometric signals enter the scorer.

Every score cites evidence from the candidate’s own answers, with adverse-impact testing and bias reporting across cohorts.

Human-in-the-loop

Every score is reviewable, explainable and overrideable.

Recruiters set the rubric, inspect the evidence and decide who progresses.

FairShot supports human judgement; it does not replace it.

Secure and compliant
