About Asendia AI
Summary
Asendia AI builds AI recruiting agents for staffing agencies, handling the full top-of-funnel workflow that human recruiters otherwise run manually. For each new requisition, the agents source candidates, conduct screening calls, follow up over phone, SMS, WhatsApp, and email, and deliver ranked shortlists, all before a recruiter touches the role. The work it replaces is the time-intensive sourcing and screening cycle that determines which agencies win on speed.
Business model
Demo-led sales with pricing not publicly detailed.
Go-to-market
Staffing agencies are the buyer; they onboard by cloning their own best recruiters' logic and outreach style into the platform, targeting sectors including healthcare, IT, and light industrial.

AI recruiters for staffing agencies
Asendia AI replaces the top-of-funnel recruiter. Our AI agents clone each agency's best human recruiter: their knowledge base, screening logic, outreach style, and judgment, then run the full workflow across phone, SMS, WhatsApp, and email, 24/7. A req comes in; by the time a recruiter sits down, Asendia has already sourced, screened, and drafted submittals. Staffing is a $200B+ industry where speed is the entire margin.
