## The problem, and the fix.

### The problem

Recruiters manage dozens of candidates across multiple stages. Follow-ups fall through the cracks. Candidates who were interested go silent. Hot leads go cold. Manual tracking in spreadsheets fails at scale.

### The solution

Scrini AI automates follow-up sequences across channels. Candidates receive timely nudges based on their stage, response behavior and engagement. No more manual reminders or forgotten follow-ups.

## How it works.

1. **Define follow-up rules by stage and response behavior**: Decide when to nudge, on which channel and when to stop.
2. **Scrini AI tracks candidate engagement automatically**: Scrini watches opens, replies and stage changes for every candidate.
3. **Follow-ups trigger based on time, behavior or stage changes**: Follow-ups go out on time, triggered by silence, behavior or a stage change.
4. **Multi-channel delivery: email, SMS, WhatsApp**: Messages reach candidates by email, SMS or WhatsApp, and stop as soon as they reply.

### What you get

- Multi-channel follow-up sequences
- Behavior-triggered nudge automation
- Customizable timing and frequency rules
- Response detection and sequence adjustment
- Engagement scoring and prioritization

## Fits your workflow.

Follow-ups integrate with your pipeline stages. When candidates stall, sequences activate automatically. Responses are detected and handled, positive replies advance candidates; continued silence triggers escalation or archiving.

### Who it's for

- Recruiters juggling 50+ active candidates
- Agencies with long sales cycles on candidates
- Teams with multi-week interview processes
- Anyone losing candidates to poor follow-up

### Use cases

- Keep sourced candidates warm while filling other roles
- Nudge candidates who haven't responded to scheduling
- Re-engage candidates who went silent mid-process
- Maintain talent pipelines with periodic touchpoints

### Benefits

- Improve response rates with consistent follow-up
- Reduce candidate drop-off from ghosting
- Free recruiters from manual follow-up tracking
- Maintain candidate relationships at scale

## Questions, answered

### How many follow-ups can I automate?

You set the number of steps, timing and channels per sequence. Sequences stop as soon as a candidate replies or opts out (unsubscribe link, STOP, or telling the agent), and opt-outs are recorded.

### Can I customize follow-up content?

Yes. Each follow-up can be personalized with candidate data. You can also create different sequences for different roles or candidate types.

### What happens when a candidate responds?

Response detection stops the sequence and routes the reply appropriately, either to the AI agent for handling or to a human recruiter.
