Kula is an AI-native Applicant Tracking System (ATS) that unifies sourcing, screening, scheduling, interviews, and analytics into a single workflow, replacing fragmented recruiting tool stacks.
What is Kula?
Kula is an AI-native ATS built by recruiters for modern hiring. It takes job postings and candidate applications as input and produces ranked candidate shortlists, auto-generated interview summaries, and real-time hiring analytics as output. The platform runs as a web-based SaaS application and is designed to eliminate the copy-paste workflow common with legacy ATS tools.
Key Features
- Built-in sourcing and CRM — Find and activate talent without leaving the system; includes smart candidate scoring based on job fit and automated outreach with centralized candidate history.
- AI-powered resume scoring — Automatically ranks applicants against job requirements; produces a scored shortlist with pass-through rate visibility.
- Auto-generated candidate summaries — Extracts key qualifications and experience from resumes, reducing manual shortlisting time.
- Smart scheduling — Syncs with calendars, automates interview scheduling, sends reminders, and triggers follow-up workflows without back-and-forth emails.
- AI notetaker with auto-filled scorecards — Transcribes interviews live and fills structured scorecards; generates interview summaries with bias-reducing structured feedback.
- Conversational analytics — Allows users to ask natural-language questions about pipeline metrics, DEI data, and hiring manager filters; no Excel exports required.
- Compliance and bias-aware tools — Includes DEI tracking, GDPR/CCPA compliance, SOC 2 Type II certification, and adherence to regulations like NYC Local Law 144, Colorado SB205, and EU AI Act.
Who is it for?
- Recruiters — To automate repetitive tasks such as resume screening, interview scheduling, and note-taking, freeing time for strategic engagement with candidates.
- Hiring managers — To evaluate candidates using AI-generated summaries and structured scorecards without chasing recruiters for notes or handling separate tools.
- Talent acquisition leaders — To gain cross-team pipeline visibility and compliance reporting through conversational analytics, without relying on spreadsheet exports or BI add-ons.
- Startups, mid-market, and enterprise teams — The platform adapts to hiring volume: startups get structured hiring from day one, scale teams get cross-region visibility, and enterprises get standardized workflows and governance.
What can you do with Kula?
- Streamline end-to-end hiring: Replace separate sourcing tools, ATS, scheduling apps, and notetakers with a single system; recruiters move from copy-paste data entry to a unified workflow.
- Screen candidates faster: AI scores resumes and generates summaries; hiring managers review shortlists without manual sifting through hundreds of applications.
- Maintain compliance and reduce bias: Built-in DEI tracking and structured interview feedback help meet regulatory requirements such as NYC Local Law 144 and EU AI Act.
- Analyze pipeline and decide: Ask natural-language questions (e.g., "How many candidates from engineering have been interviewed this quarter?") and get instant answers without running reports.
How does Kula work?
Kula organizes hiring into five continuous stages within one platform: Source & Engage, Screen & Qualify, Coordinate & Schedule, Interview & Evaluate, and Analyse & Decide. Recruiters begin by sourcing candidates using built-in CRM and AI scoring, then screen with resume analysis. Scheduling, interviews with AI notetaker, and conversational analytics all live inside the same candidate profile — no switching tabs or exporting data.
