How it works

Human judgment, multiplied by AI

aster blends the speed of agentic AI with the taste of seasoned recruiters — so quality scales with volume.

01

Define the role

Tell aster what great looks like. Your recruiter translates it into a precise, structured search the AI can act on.

02

Agents go to work

Agentic AI sources, enriches, and screens candidates around the clock — surfacing matches with evidence, not guesswork.

03

Humans deliver the shortlist

Expert recruiters review every match, run the human conversations, and hand you a shortlist ready to interview.

The platform

One system for the whole search

Everything your recruiter and their AI agents need to run a world-class search, in a single workspace.

Agentic sourcing

Autonomous agents search hundreds of signals to find candidates who fit — including the ones not actively looking.

Evidence-based screening

Every match comes with a rationale: skills, projects, and proof points mapped directly to your requirements.

Recruiter-led outreach

Real humans run the conversations candidates remember, with AI drafting and scheduling in the background.

Pipeline in real time

Watch sourcing, screening, and shortlists update live. No black box, no weekly status calls.

Bias & privacy controls

Structured evaluation and configurable guardrails keep your hiring fair, compliant, and auditable.

Fits your stack

Sync shortlists and feedback with your ATS and calendars so your team keeps working where they already are.
