THE ECONOMICS
Scoring Creates a Relationship That Did Not Exist Before.
Finds what predicts success at your company. NODES ingests your CRM call transcripts, HRIS performance data, and ATS candidate records. It identifies the behavioral signals that separate your top performers — across 28+ dimensions, not just credentials.
Scores every candidate before you hire them. Scores write back into your ATS as a custom field. No new system for your team to learn.
Measures whether it worked. Every hire tracked against production outcomes. The model improves every quarter.
Deployed inside your VPC. No external APIs. No data egress. Contract to production: 34 days. Integrations with Workday, Greenhouse, SAP SuccessFactors, ADP, BambooHR, Dayforce, UKG, and 40+ other HRIS and ATS systems.
Traditional SaaS AI Tools
Nodes AI Architecture
The data that produces the best predictions is data no SaaS vendor can access. That's why the accuracy is 80%. 44+ native integrations.
The Fields Change. The Equation Doesn't.
ΔProduction = k × Δt × n
Insurance screens for licenses. Banking screens for Series 7. Healthcare screens for clinical years. Defense screens for clearance. If the screen doesn't predict production, the equation applies.
If your filters don't predict performance, you'll know. If they do, we'll tell you that too.
13 Agents. One Intelligence Layer. Zero Data Egress.
Three agents score, interview, and source candidates. Ten manage post-hire: ramp, attrition, retention, mobility, succession, manager intelligence, onboarding, training, promotion readiness, workforce planning. All run on the same model. One deployment. Hire to retire.
Screening AI Agent
What: Scores every applicant against your top performer pattern — not the 5-10% your team has time to review manually.
Proof: 710,000+ scored. 80% prediction accuracy at a Fortune 500 company.

Interview AI Agent
What: Runs structured AI interviews. Every decision trace logged. Scores tied to actual production outcomes.
Proof: Interview scores correlated with on-the-job production data — not interviewer gut feel.

Sourcing AI Agent
What: Finds passive candidates who match your pattern across LinkedIn, GitHub, public portfolios, and industry networks.
Proof: Surfaces people a keyword search would never find — because keywords don't predict production.
