Two agents do the work. One human decides.

The problem

Recruiters spend half the week before they speak to a client.

18.2 hours a week
on sourcing & screening · Bullhorn GRID 2024

If you run an agency

  • Every hour screening is an hour not winning the next mandate.
  • You present 40 CVs where four would do.
  • Slow turnaround loses the deal to a faster desk.

If you lead in-house TA

  • Inconsistent screens you can't defend when legal asks.
  • Volume without the time for structured assessment.
  • EU AI Act makes your hiring process high-risk from August 2026.

Cara · gated assessment

Assessment you can defend.

Cara verifies the right person sits a fair, supervised assessment before a human ever reviews them, all on EU-sovereign infrastructure. We don't write the psychometric tests; Cara delivers and invigilates them to an Annex III standard. You get a defensible, audit-ready record, and the decision stays human.

01 · IdentityID verification

The right person sits the assessment, confirmed before it begins.

02 · EnvironmentRoom scan

A supervised environment check, recorded as evidence, never affect or emotion.

03 · DeliveryProctored assessment

Cognitive, situational and work-styles assessments, one question at a time, fully logged.

We deliver and invigilate assessments. We do not author the psychometric tests.

How it works

Source. Assess. Interview. You decide.

01

Seamus sources

From your brief, Seamus runs the boolean and X-ray searches a recruiter spends hours composing, and returns a ranked, confidence-scored shortlist with the evidence behind every match.

02

Cara gates the assessment

Each candidate completes an ID check, a room scan and a proctored assessment under Cara's supervision, all on EU-sovereign infrastructure, before anyone reviews them.

03

Aoibheann interviews

Every candidate gets the same structured interview, scored against your role criteria with evidence quotes, before you read a single profile.

Then you make the call.

Fios AI recommends. You proceed, hold, or decline, with a full audit trail. No candidate is ever rejected automatically.

Competency scores, not gut feel

Every candidate scored against your role criteria.

Audit log, decision-ready

Every recommendation and decision is recorded.

The moat

Compliance built in, not bolted on.

Fios AI is a high-risk AI system under EU AI Act Annex III, designed for it from day one. EU data residency, human oversight, and full transparency are architecture, not a policy page.

01

Human in the loop

A recruiter proceeds, holds, or declines every candidate. No automated rejection exists in the system. Article 14 by design.

02

EU-sovereign data

Candidate data is hosted in the EU and never leaves EU infrastructure. Sovereignty by architecture, not a commercial promise.

03

Disclosed and auditable

Candidates are told they are interacting with AI (Article 50). Every recommendation carries its evidence; every decision is logged. No emotion or affect inference, ever.

Questions

What teams ask first.

No. Fios AI recommends; a human always proceeds, holds, or declines. There is no automated rejection path in the system, this is enforced in code, in line with EU AI Act Article 14 and GDPR Article 22.

Candidate data is stored and processed on EU infrastructure and does not leave it. It's an architectural choice, not a cross-border transfer arrangement.

Yes. Candidates are told when they're interacting with AI, data is retained under a defined policy, and interview recordings expire automatically. No candidate data is used to train models.

No. Assessment is based on the content of structured answers against your role criteria, never emotion, mood, or affect. Affect inference in the workplace is prohibited under the EU AI Act, and we don't do it.

No. We deliver and invigilate assessments; we don't author the psychometric content. Every candidate is verified with an ID check and room scan, then sits a proctored assessment under supervision, all on EU-sovereign infrastructure and logged to an Annex III standard. The room scan is recorded as evidence only, never affect or emotion.
