What would you hand over first?

Sauna drafts, you approve. It doesn't reject a candidate and it doesn't make the hiring call.

How it works

The whole hire, one stage at a time.

Every stage runs on what's already in your ATS, your inbox, and your calendar. Sauna drafts, you approve. It doesn't reject a candidate and it doesn't make the hiring call.

01 · Sourcing

Find the ones who never applied.

Describe the role the way you'd say it out loud. Sauna searches public professional sources for candidates who match, ranks them against your must-haves, and gives you one line on each saying why they're worth the message. There's no candidate index behind this and no search credits to buy: it searches per role, and it won't mass-message anyone.

02 · Application Review

Every application, read against the role.

Reads every new application against the must-haves and the nice-to-haves, ranks them, and gives you one line on each saying why. The ones that miss say what they missed.

03 · Screening

Outreach and screens, minus the back-and-forth.

Drafts the first message and the follow-ups from the candidate's background and the role, in your voice. Finds the slot across the panel's calendars and writes the prep note. You're the one who sends.

04 · Notes

The debrief becomes a scorecard.

Works from the interview notes you already capture: pulls out the decisions, writes the structured summary into the ATS, and drafts the recap to the panel. It doesn't dial into your interviews.

Make it yours

None of this is how we think you should hire.

Change any stage, drop the ones you don't want, and tell it where it got you wrong — the must-haves, the tone of the outreach, when it chases and when it waits. Persistent memory is on every plan, so you say it once. Pro and Team add custom models trained on how your team actually works.

The swap

6 tools become 2.

Nobody set out to run 6 tools. You added a piece of recruiting software a year for 5 years, and a spreadsheet to hold what none of them did — and each one solved a real problem that day.

What you pay for now
  • A CV screening add-on
  • An outreach tool
  • A candidate engagement tool
  • A scheduling tool
  • A reporting add-on
  • The spreadsheet that holds the real status
What you'd keep
  • Your ATSStays. Same records, same stages, same login.
  • SaunaDoes the work the other 5 were bought for.
It keeps your ATS

Your ATS doesn't move.

Sauna reads it and writes back to it. No migration, no second system of record. Turn Sauna off and your pipeline is exactly where you left it.
