Hiring today is broken. Recruiters face overwhelming volumes of applications for every role, making it nearly impossible to give each candidate a fair shot. Tukadi (by Zivaro Software, Inc.) was built to fix this — with AI-powered screening and interviews that are fast, consistent, and transparent, so humans can spend their time on decisions instead of triage.
Why now
- Application volumes are soaring — AI-written resumes have made applying nearly free, and inboxes show it.
- Keyword filtering overlooks qualified candidates and rewards resume padding.
- Teams need screening that is repeatable, explainable, and reviewable — not a black box.
What you get
- Evidence-quoted screening — every applicant's resume is checked against your eligibility criteria, and each pass or fail comes with the quoted evidence and reasoning behind it.
- No auto-reject — Tukadi never rejects a candidate on its own. Every negative decision is made by a human reviewing the evidence.
- Resume-aware AI voice interviews — qualified applicants complete a recorded, camera-on interview tailored to their background, on their own schedule.
- A shortlist you can share — scores, transcripts, and recordings in one place, shareable with hiring managers or clients.
How it works
- Create a job and define your must-have and nice-to-have criteria in plain language.
- Collect applicants — invite by email, share an apply link, or bulk-upload resumes.
- Tukadi screens every resume against your criteria, quoting the evidence for each judgment.
- Qualified candidates complete an on-demand AI voice interview — recorded, camera-on, with follow-up questions based on their actual resume.
- You review scores, transcripts, and recordings, and decide who advances.
Why teams choose Tukadi
- Speed: first-round screening happens in hours, not weeks — without adding headcount.
- Consistency: every applicant gets the same structured screening depth and interview flow.
- Candidate experience: flexible scheduling, transparent expectations, and no more phone-tag.
- Auditability: criteria, scores, reasoning, and recordings are stored for review — decisions have a paper trail.
