What parts of recruiting can Loam automate?
Loam can structure resumes, produce candidate briefs, evaluate user-defined signals, support natural-language sourcing, answer pipeline questions, and carry out scoped workflow updates. Interviews and hiring decisions remain human responsibilities.
Is recruiting automation the same as an ATS?
Not always. An ATS stores and organizes the hiring process; recruiting automation reduces repetitive work within that process. Loam combines both, so automation operates on the same candidate record the team reviews.
How does Loam prevent AI from making unsupported decisions?
Loam presents summaries and signals as decision support, keeps source information accessible, and requires people to make hiring decisions. Teams should review AI outputs rather than treating them as final judgments.
Can Loam work with external AI assistants?
Yes. Loam provides an MCP server for compatible tools, including Claude and Cursor, with scoped access to authorized recruiting workflows.
