Fifty read, one hundred and fifty skimmed
Time ran out before the pile did.
Greenhouse AI candidate matching and ranking for teams that want a shortlist they can explain
Greenhouse records, per candidate and per job, whether a candidate has confirmed that they do not want AI-assisted review, and confirming an opt-out deletes the match scores already computed for that job. BoldBellows records the application, the job and the scoring rubric version before any candidate is compared, reads each candidate's AI opt-out status for the job and leaves anyone who opted out unscored, then passes a model only the fields your rubric names, asks it to score each criterion with a quote from the application as evidence, sums the result into a ranked list with the reasons beside every score, writes the ranking to the application as a note for the recruiter, and moves no one between stages and rejects no one. Demographic answers and EEOC data are never read.
From $1,130, paid once. Rank Greenhouse applicants with AI.
01 · the black-box shortlist problem
Two hundred applicants for one opening means a recruiter reads fifty and skims the rest, and which fifty depends on the day. A keyword filter rewards the right buzzwords and misses the candidate who describes the same work in other words. A scoring model that only returns a number cannot say why one applicant sits above another, cannot be audited and, in a market with rules on automated employment decision tools, can become a liability. Some candidates have also chosen not to be scored by AI at all.

02 · how it works
An event becomes a proposal in three stages, each with its own evidence.
Before anything is prepared for the AI workflow, the Greenhouse event is checked against the agreed admission rule.
Opt-out status is read, the model scores each rubric criterion from the application, and every score is stored with a quoted passage.
The scores are summed into a ranking, the ranking is written to the application as a note, and a recruiter decides who moves.
Greenhouse records, per candidate and per job, whether a candidate has confirmed that they do not want AI-assisted review, and confirming an opt-out deletes the match scores already computed for that job, so the route reads that status before it ranks anyone and never rebuilds a score for someone who opted out.
Confirming an AI opt-out in Greenhouse deletes the match scores already computed for that job except where a recruiter has overridden them, so the route reads the status first and never rebuilds a score for someone who opted out.
Because one key built from the application, the job, the rubric version and the model run is stored with each record, replaying an event leaves the AI workflow unchanged if the work exists.

Guardian04 · who it's for
Recruiters want a place to start. Candidates want to be read fairly, and the company needs to be able to show how a shortlist was made.
"Where do I start with 200 applicants?"
A ranked list with the reasons beside every position.
"Why is she above him?"
Each score shows the passage it came from.
"Keep us fair."
Outcomes are compared across groups on a schedule.
"Automated tools need a paper trail."
Rubric, model and reviewer are stored for every score.
"Respect candidates' choices."
Anyone who opted out of AI review is left unscored.
"I want speed without risk."
The route advises and a person decides.

05 · compare your options
Each can sort a pile. Only one scores against a written rubric, quotes its evidence and respects opt-outs.
| How a run starts | A keyword filter | A generic AI scoring tool | Our rubric-based ranking route |
|---|---|---|---|
| What starts the work | An admin on a busy day | Anything the trigger matches | Only changes on your in-scope list |
| How identity is decided | Checked against old notes | A lookup that may return several | One key: application, job, rubric version and model run |
| What reaches the AI workflow | A handwritten note turned digital | The default field set | A ranked list with quoted evidence, advising a named reviewer |
| After an uncertain result | An email thread to sort it out | Fails quietly | Uses one key built from the application, the job, the rubric version and the model run to settle what already exists |
A late Greenhouse notice is compared with the stored checkpoint; anything older than the current proposal is closed with a note.
The next read shows the opt-out, the stored score is withdrawn from the recruiter's view, nothing new is computed, and the application goes to manual review. It searches the AI workflow on one key built from the application, the job, the rubric version and the model run, weighs what it finds against the plan and logs the verdict. Only when nothing is found does the route make a new proposal.
One key built from the application, the job, the rubric version and the model run links each Greenhouse record to its the AI workflow proposal for the life of the route.
Pick a package, answer three short questions about how Greenhouse data should reach AI Candidate Matching and Ranking, and your price and turnaround move as you choose.
06 · process & getting started
Six steps, named outputs, and a review after go-live.
We turn the role into six or fewer criteria, each with a plain definition of strong, adequate and weak evidence.
We take scoped access to Greenhouse, agree where the model runs and fix the identifiers every proposal will carry.
Which fields the model sees, who reviews, how opt-outs are handled and how outcomes are monitored are agreed in writing before a model is switched on.
Unusual, incomplete and repeated records are run through a test the AI workflow so the route's answers are known.
The last step is release: a defined start, a review window and a PDF you can keep.
The opening weeks are monitored for retries, delays and mismatches, and the results are summarised for you.
07 · turnaround

08 · before we start
09 · security and ownership
Only agreed Greenhouse fields reach the model.
Greenhouse keeps doing what it does and the AI workflow keeps doing what it does; the connection between them is the only new thing.
Permissions are written down, minimal and reversible.
New fields in Greenhouse do not flow into the AI workflow until someone adds them to the map on purpose.
The same event processed twice gives the same result in the AI workflow, because one key built from the application, the job, the rubric version and the model run decides create or update.
Evidence of a run is kept as references, not as copies of data.
The PDF names each rule, credential and owner so your admins are never guessing.

11 · questions
We collected the questions that decide most purchases and answered them.
A shortlist a recruiter can defend is something a zap does well. It does not score against criteria you wrote, respect a candidate's opt-out from AI review or show why one applicant sits above another. If those matter to you, the build is the right fit; if not, we will say a zap is enough.
No. It writes a ranking and the evidence as a note. People move candidates between stages.
Greenhouse's AI opt-out status is read for each job, and anyone who opted out is left unscored.
Only the fields your rubric names, and never the demographic resources.
Outcomes are compared across groups with the four-fifths comparison on a schedule, and a gap is flagged for review.
Some jurisdictions, such as New York City, require one for automated employment decision tools. We build the records an auditor asks for, and your counsel decides what applies to you.
Yes. Each ranking stores the rubric version, so old scores stay explainable.
Yes. We agree, field by field, what the model sees from Greenhouse and what a proposal may change, and you sign it off first.
Yes. You choose which Greenhouse changes qualify, which proposals need approval and who reviews them. Pricing starts at $1,130.
The handover lists every interface the route uses. If one changes, the affected item stops and is flagged instead of being written from a guess. Repairs after your review window are quoted separately. If you searched for custom greenhouse ai candidate matching and ranking automation, this is the service that delivers it.
