AI solution for candidate screening and recruitment

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built an AI recruiting assistant that interacts with every candidate in their preferred language. It handles screening to evaluate 100% of applicants and reduces the workload on recruiting teams by automating candidate engagement and evaluation.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We're based in Bogotá, Colombia, but our team works remotely as well. After YC, we plan to keep the company based here while expanding remote work.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Bogotá is where the founding team lives and where we've built our initial product and team. Remote work lets us hire globally while keeping costs manageable.
