Recruitment and Interview Automation
In recruitment, the avatars act as initial screening bots that conduct mock interviews, ask standardized questions, and evaluate candidate responses in real time. This standardization reduces bias and speeds up the hiring pipeline while preserving a human‑centric experience.
Enhanced Candidate Experience
Candidates receive immediate feedback and can practice interview techniques, leading to higher satisfaction and better preparation for live interviews.
Technology Backbone and Funding Impact
The $200 million Nvidia‑backed investment accelerates development of advanced AI models, GPU‑optimized rendering, and natural language processing. This funding ensures the avatars remain responsive during live role‑play sessions and supports continuous innovation.
Future Roadmap
