Nobody set out to buy 6 tools. You bought one a year for 5 years, 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. From $29 a month.
Use cases

Six jobs it takes off your desk.

Each one 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

Screen 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.

  • Your ATS
  • Resumes
02

Personalize the outreach

Drafts the first message and the follow-ups from the candidate's background and the role, in your voice. You're the one who sends.

  • LinkedIn
  • Gmail
03

Turn the debrief into a scorecard

Works from the interview notes you already capture: pulls out the decisions, writes the structured summary into the ATS, drafts the recap to the panel.

  • Granola
  • Your ATS
  • Gmail
04

Coordinate the interviews

Finds the slot across the panel's calendars, drafts the invite and the candidate prep note, and chases the feedback after each round.

  • Google Calendar
  • Gmail
05

Keep the pipeline warm

A daily list of who has gone quiet at each stage, with the nudge or the hiring-manager reminder already written and waiting on you.

  • Your ATS
  • Slack
06

Report on the pipeline

Every Friday, the week's movement per role — advanced, stalled, offers out — pulled from the ATS and written up ready to paste.

  • Your ATS
  • Slack
  • Email

Two things it isn't. It's not a candidate database — there are no search credits to buy, and whatever you source with is yours to keep. And it doesn't dial into your interviews; it works from the notes you already take.

Get startedOne role. One afternoon. Then decide.
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.
