Shiftat is an AI-powered recruitment platform that helps Saudi businesses find and hire qualified candidates faster. The platform uses three AI agents—sourcing, screening, and interviewing—to search a database of over one million verified Saudi job seekers, rank applicants by skill and salary fit, and conduct structured interviews in Arabic or English before booking the top five candidates directly into the employer's calendar.

Problem
Saudi businesses face slow, costly hiring cycles that rely on posting job ads, waiting days for applicants, manually reviewing hundreds of resumes, and coordinating screening calls and interview schedules. This process strains HR teams and delays access to qualified local talent, especially when meeting Saudization (Nitaqat) targets.
Solution
Shiftat provides an AI-driven recruitment platform that automates the entire sourcing-to-interview pipeline. Employers describe a role once, and three specialized agents handle the work: a sourcing agent searches Shiftat's database of over one million verified Saudi job seekers, a screening agent ranks candidates by skills, salary fit, and availability, and an interview agent conducts structured preliminary interviews in Arabic or English with automatic scoring. The platform then books the top five candidates directly into the employer's calendar, leaving the final hiring decision to the human recruiter. This approach eliminates job postings, reduces time-to-hire from weeks to days, and cuts recruitment costs to near zero.
Target Audience
Primary customers are HR teams and recruiters at Saudi companies, from national enterprises to global organizations operating in the Kingdom, that need to fill roles quickly while meeting Saudization requirements.
