Cody Convert
A recruiting chatbot that matches candidates.
A recruiting chatbot sits on your careers page, asks candidates what they do and where they’re based, and takes them to the open role that fits. It answers questions about pay, location and the interview steps from your job posts. Recruiting teams use Cody Convert to turn browsing into applications.
Signals

A visit from LinkedIn, three roles opened, the remote filter on. Convert reads the signals you choose and opens when a candidate is browsing your careers page.

Location, experience and salary come straight from your job posts and hiring policies, with the sources shown.
Next step
It takes them to the right job page.
One tap and the candidate lands on the role that fits. Recruiters see who was matched to which role, and what they asked.

FAQ
Recruiting chatbot FAQs
Does it replace our applicant tracking system?
No. Convert works on your careers site and sends candidates to the job page or to a recruiter. Applications still go through your current process.
Can it screen candidates?
It can ask the questions you choose, such as location or years of experience, and use the answers to match roles or book a call. Hiring decisions stay with your team.
Will it answer salary questions?
Only from what you publish. If a job post includes a range, Convert quotes it with the source. If it doesn’t, Convert says so.
Can employees use it for HR questions?
For internal questions, use Cody Assist, which answers from your HR documents. See the HR chatbot.
