The spreadsheet spiral
Candidates tracked across spreadsheets, email threads, and WhatsApp. No system, no visibility, no accountability.
Every interviewer wings it
One asks about skills. Another spends 40 minutes on small talk. The loudest voice in the debrief wins.
You hired the wrong person. Again.
The interview felt great — strong rapport. But you never tested for what the role actually needed.

Questions you're probably already asking
We built Axil for hiring teams who are tired of guessing. Here's what they ask first.
No. Axil's AI generates interview playbooks and synthesises feedback from your team, but it explicitly does not make hire/no-hire recommendations. Every hiring decision is made by a human. This is a design principle, not a limitation — and it's exactly what the EU AI Act requires.
Axil is not an ATS. We don't post jobs, parse CVs, or source candidates. We focus entirely on what happens after candidates enter your pipeline: structuring interviews, collecting fair feedback, and synthesising evaluations. Think of us as the interview and decision layer that sits alongside your existing tools.
Yes, fully. Axil processes candidate data under clear legal bases, supports all data subject rights, and never uses sole automated decision-making under GDPR Article 22. All data is hosted within the EU. For the EU AI Act — recruitment AI is classified as high-risk with obligations effective August 2026. Axil meets these requirements: text-only analysis, no emotion detection or biometric inference, mandatory human oversight, transparent processing, and full audit trails.
Especially then. When you hire infrequently, you lack the muscle memory that high-volume recruiters develop. A bad hire at a 100-person company is proportionally far more damaging than at a 10,000-person one. Axil gives you a structured, repeatable process so every hire follows the same rigorous standard.
Minutes, not weeks. No implementation project, no IT team required, and no data migration. Sign up, invite your team, and generate your first playbook. Most teams run their first structured interview within a day.
Absolutely. The AI gives you a strong starting point — structured stages, focus areas, and questions tailored to the role. You can edit every element, add your own questions, adjust scoring criteria, and save templates for roles you hire repeatedly. The AI accelerates you; it doesn't constrain you.
