AI capabilities
AI is what sets X0PA AI apart. Rather than reviewing applicants in the order they arrive, the platform uses AI to surface the best-fit candidates, automate repetitive steps, and structure your data. This section explains what the AI does and where to configure it.
What the AI does
| Capability | What it means for you | Guide |
|---|---|---|
| Candidate matching & scoring | Applicants are ranked by fit for each vacancy | AI matching |
| Match breakdown | See why a candidate scored as they did (matched skills, gaps) | AI matching |
| Recommendations | The platform recommends candidates from your Talent Pool for a role | Find candidates |
| Resume parsing | Uploaded CVs are turned into structured profiles automatically | Adding candidates |
| Autopilot & automation | Routine stage moves and emails happen automatically | Vacancy settings |

How scoring works
When AI matching is enabled for a vacancy, each candidate receives a match score based on signals such as skills, experience relevance, and education. Sort or filter the applicant list by score to focus on the strongest matches first.

Automating with Autopilot
Autopilot applies your rules automatically — for example advancing high-scoring candidates, sending acknowledgements, or triggering prescreening — so recruiters spend less time on repetitive steps. Configure it per vacancy in vacancy settings.
Configuring AI
- Per vacancy — enable matching, adjust emphasis, and set Autopilot rules in vacancy settings.
- Organisation-wide defaults — administrators set default AI behaviour in AI & portal settings.
