Problem
Traditional applicant tracking systems focus mainly on managing candidates who have already applied, making it difficult for recruiters to proactively discover and engage passive or hidden talent. This limits the ability to build diverse pipelines and slows hiring cycles.
Solution
Rival Recruit (formerly Entelo) offers an AI‑driven talent platform that combines sourcing, personalized outreach, candidate tracking, and analytics in a single interface. By leveraging a database of over 750 million embedded candidate profiles, the system surfaces both active applicants and passive candidates who match the required skills and experience. AI algorithms rank prospects and suggest outreach messages, while built‑in engagement tools enable recruiters to contact candidates directly from the platform. All interactions are logged and visualized in real‑time dashboards, allowing talent teams to measure pipeline health, forecast hiring needs, and continuously improve sourcing strategies.
Target Audience
Primary customers are corporate recruiting teams and HR departments seeking to accelerate talent acquisition and improve pipeline diversity, as well as staffing agencies that need scalable sourcing capabilities.
