Candidate.fyi Launches World's First AI-Powered Interview Scheduling Agent

Candidate.fyi, the company modernizing recruiting coordination for high-growth teams, has announced the public launch of fyi—the world's first AI-powered interview scheduling agent. This technology represents a fundamental shift in how recruiting teams manage the complex process of interview coordination, moving beyond simple automation to intelligent agent-based systems.

The significance of this launch lies in its potential to address one of the most time-consuming aspects of the hiring process. According to Kyle Connors, CEO of candidate.fyi, "This is the moment interview coordination enters the AI era. fyi understands the real-world complexity of scheduling interviews. It's not here to replace coordinators—it's here to amplify them. What used to take hours now happens in seconds." This technology could substantially reduce the administrative burden on recruiting teams while maintaining the human touch essential for candidate experience.

What makes fyi revolutionary is its ability to handle complex scheduling scenarios that typically require human intervention. The AI agent can match candidates and interviewers based on real-time calendar availability, reschedule interviews in seconds without messy coordination threads, send personalized follow-ups and confirmations automatically, and integrate seamlessly with existing ATS, calendar, and candidate portal systems. Teams maintain control with flexible settings and manual overrides, ensuring the technology enhances rather than replaces human decision-making.

The implications for the recruiting industry are substantial. By automating repetitive manual tasks that traditionally slow down hiring processes, fyi could enable faster hiring cycles, improved communication, and more consistent candidate experiences. The technology is already being adopted by fast-moving recruiting teams looking to level up their operations, with early adoption by respected brands including Intercom, Discord, GoPro, Bally's Resorts & Casinos, and Collective Health.

This launch represents more than just another automation tool—it signifies the birth of an entirely new category: AI agents for recruiting. Unlike traditional bots or plugins, fyi functions as an intelligent, always-on scheduling teammate that helps teams move faster without sacrificing quality or personalization. The technology's availability at https://candidate.fyi/product/fyi marks a turning point in how recruiting coordination will be managed in the future, potentially setting new standards for efficiency and candidate experience in the hiring process.
