Features include AI-powered job description creation, automated sourcing across 600M+ profiles, transparent candidate scoring, AI voice interviews (coming soon), automated interview scheduling, and interview preparation with manager briefings. Kynto is designed for founders, solo HR professionals, and HR teams. Free trial available, no credit card required.

What would you like to do ?

Feel free to ask me anything you need. I can move things forward for you or guide you on your next recruitment decisions.

Most tools don't know your company. Kynto does, in 5 minutes.

Set Kynto up in 5 minutes. It learns your scorecards, your culture and your past hiring decisions, then drafts a job description, opens the role, and lays out the full pipeline for you. From there, it stays with you at every step.

Adapted

Every output reflects your standards, not generic templates.

Precise

Evaluations match what your team actually values in a candidate.

Faster

Less back-and-forth because Kynto already knows what you need.

From that understanding, everything follows.

Can you walk me through the most complex system you've shipped?

Sure. Last year I rebuilt the analytics dashboard.

Marie

How did you decide what to cache versus keep live?

Sophie

I looked at usage, plus how often each metric changes.
