Sales Automation for Recruiting
A sales automation system built for recruitment agencies.
Recruitment business development is relationship maintenance at scale, and it is the first thing dropped when desks get busy. Automation keeps candidate and client relationships alive continuously — new-brief matching, check-ins, and re-engagement that runs whether or not anyone has time.
Built by VelvoAI, an independent AI systems studio. One engineer scopes and writes every system.

Use cases
What this handles for recruitment agencies
Your placed candidates and lapsed clients are your warmest market.
- Match new briefs against your dormant candidate database and run re-engagement
- Keep placed candidates warm for future moves and referrals
- Re-engage lapsed clients when relevant candidates become available
- Nurture passive candidates with role alerts matched to their stated criteria
Placements sourced from the database you already own rather than from fresh advertising spend.
How it runs
Day to day for recruitment agencies
Working the database you already own is the least glamorous and best-returning automation on a recruitment desk, and it is mostly a timing problem: the right person is already in the system, and the question is when they become reachable. So the triggers are events rather than schedules — a new brief landing, a placement passing its anniversary, a contract assignment approaching its end date, a lapsed client advertising a role elsewhere. Tone matters here too. On the KPMG and REC numbers the permanent market contracted for three years running, which means cash and existing relationships carry more weight than reach, and billing more from the database lands better than scaling the team.

Sales Automation for Recruiting — questions
01Is contacting old candidates a GDPR problem?
It depends on your lawful basis and how long the data has been held. We build in consent tracking, retention rules, and one-click opt-out, and automate the purging of records past your retention period — which usually improves compliance over the current manual position.
02How do you match a brief to old candidates?
Semantic matching over parsed CV content rather than keyword search, so a candidate whose CV never used your client's exact job title still surfaces when the underlying experience fits.
