Why Augtal exists
Every recruiter faces the same brutal reality:
100 resumes to review = 5 hours gone
Time that could be spent on high-value activities like client relationships and candidate engagement.
Manual LinkedIn searching = another 3 hours
Endless scrolling and manual data entry that could be automated with AI.
Checking job boards = endless refreshing
Constantly monitoring multiple platforms instead of focusing on strategic recruitment.
Result: 2-3 placements per month, 60-hour weeks
The brutal reality of manual processes limiting your earning potential and work-life balance.
We lived this. Now we're fixing it.
Augtal gives independent and small agency recruiters the AI power that was previously reserved for enterprise teams—without the enterprise complexity or price tag. Our promise: technology that pays for itself with one placement.
Who We Are
Practitioners first. Software builders second.
AugTal wasn't born in a Silicon Valley boardroom. It was born from our distributed talent agency's weekly problem: losing placements to inefficiency, and finding new opportunities faster.
Our team—recruiters, engineers, and operators across 3 time zones—faced a choice: keep burning cash on enterprise tools that didn't fit, or build exactly what we needed.
We chose to build. But here's what makes us different:
We still run our agency. Every day. Using AugTal.
When something breaks or slows us down, we fix it immediately because our own placements depend on it.
We're not funded.
No pressure to add features for enterprise clients you'll never compete with. No pivot to "AI-powered blockchain recruiting." Just steady improvements to help agencies like ours—and yours—make more money.
We measure success in placements, not ARR.
Our north star isn't software metrics. It's whether agencies using AugTal are billing more than they were last month.
The result?
Software built by recruiters, for recruiters, tested on real requisitions with real money on the line.
Our Roadmap
What We've Built
AI Resume Ranking That Explains Itself
Upload 100 resumes, get them scored 1-100 against a job description, add your own clear criteria, and get results with clear explanations. No black box. No keyword nonsense. Just "here's why this person fits" in plain English.
Automatic LinkedIn Import
Visit any LinkedIn profile, click import, and it's captured to your database and can be scored against open jobs. No copying, no pasting—build your talent pool automatically.
Real-Time Job Alerts + Matching
Follow companies or roles and get notified when relevant jobs post, then instantly match candidates on your bench. Be first—automatically.
Drag-and-Drop Pipeline (Your Way)
Visual Kanban board that adapts to how you work. Customize stages, automate movements, never lose a candidate in email again.
Team Collaboration Built In
Share candidate pools, split commissions, manage permissions. Built for how small agencies actually operate.
We have a strong list of improvements that will make you more efficient and help you earn more. But we always want to hear what you want from your recruitment platform.
