What is AI candidate sourcing software?
Turn a hiring need into a relevant, reachable talent pipeline
AI candidate sourcing software helps recruiters discover potential candidates beyond inbound applicants, compare profiles with a role, organize a shortlist and start outreach. CVViZ connects those steps to resume screening, candidate records, recruitment CRM activity and interview scheduling so sourcing does not end with a spreadsheet of names.
Discover
Search beyond applicants
Use a plain-English brief to explore a large profile index and uncover people who may not be active applicants.
Engage
Reach out with context
Enrich available business contact details, personalize a sequence and continue conversations across supported channels.
Operationalize
Keep work in the ATS
Move interested people into a governed candidate record, screening, scheduling and recruiter follow-up workflow.
One connected sourcing workflow
From a plain-English brief to an ATS-ready conversation
The workflow is built for recruiter control: CVViZ helps find and organize possibilities, while your team chooses the shortlist, outreach rules and next hiring action.
01
Describe
Write the person, skills, experience, location and context you need in normal language.
02
Search
Explore the 800M+ profile index for people who may fit the brief.
03
Rank
Prioritize potentially relevant profiles using role context – not a single keyword.
04
Shortlist
Let a recruiter review and select who should move forward.
05
Enrich
Add available contact information to the working profile.
06
Sequence
Create personalized email, WhatsApp or SMS outreach steps.
07
AI conversation
Handle replies, ask approved probing questions and route interest to the team.
08
ATS workflow
Create or update the candidate record, screen, schedule and track the next action.
Search the way recruiters think
Describe the person in plain English – then refine the results
Start with the outcome you need rather than building a long Boolean string. Include skills, seniority, industry, geography, adjacent titles or evidence of relevant work. Review ranked profiles, tighten the brief and save the people worth contacting.
- Natural-language people search
- Role-relative ranking
- Recruiter-reviewed shortlists
- Reusable searches for recurring roles

Rank, shortlist and enrich
Move from search results to a workable recruiting list
Review profile evidence, compare the result with the role and keep only the people your team wants to approach. Contact enrichment turns selected profiles into actionable records where data is available – without letting the system make a hiring decision.
Sequences that can become conversations
Reach candidates by email, WhatsApp and SMS – then keep the context
Build personalized outreach steps for the shortlist. When candidates reply, AI-assisted conversations can ask approved probing questions, capture interest and route the next action to a recruiter. Your team defines the message, cadence, questions and handoff.
- Personalized multistep campaigns
- Email, WhatsApp and SMS channels
- Approved probing questions
- Recruiter handoff and conversation history
Two sourcing motions for recruitment agencies
Find candidates for the role – and clients for the agency
Candidate sourcing remains the core workflow. Agencies can also use the same search-and-conversation pattern to identify target companies and the decision-makers responsible for hiring.
Search people, rank profiles against an open role, shortlist candidates, enrich available contacts and run a role-specific outreach sequence. Interested prospects can move into screening, scheduling and the ATS pipeline.
Search companies that match an ideal client profile, identify relevant decision-makers and run personalized sequences or AI-assisted conversations. Keep business-development context alongside the agency recruitment CRM workflow.
Combine outbound and inbound sourcing
Search 800M+ profiles first – then add applicants from job distribution
Outbound search helps you reach people who have not applied. For inbound sourcing, CVViZ can also distribute eligible jobs to supported channels such as LinkedIn, Indeed and other job boards, subject to each platform’s policies and account eligibility. Applications, prescreening answers and sourced profiles can enter the same candidate workflow.

800M+ profile search

Inbound
LinkedIn, Indeed and job boards
