Your next great hire is already in your ATS

Talis finds qualified people you already paid to attract—people who applied, interviewed, or were passed over for a different role. When a new position opens, they appear instantly.

Most recruiting teams treat their ATS like a filing cabinet. We treat it like a goldmine.

Recruiting teams build candidate databases for years. But when a new role opens, the search often starts from scratch. Recruiters manually search old applications, rely on keyword filters, or simply move on to sourcing new candidates. Talis changes that. It turns your historical candidate data into a searchable source of qualified talent.

67%
of candidates in your ATS are never re-engaged for future roles
$4,000+
average cost to source a new candidate externally vs. re-engaging existing talent
3x
faster to fill roles using candidates already in your database

The candidate you need may already be in your database.

Imagine opening a new role and instead of immediately going to LinkedIn, Talis searches every relevant candidate your team has already encountered. Someone who wasn't right six months ago might be exactly right today. A different role. More experience. A changed requirement. A better fit. Your candidate database becomes an active recruiting resource — not an archive.

How rediscovery works
6 months ago: Applied for different role, but the requirements didn't match
Today: Perfect fit for your new open role

Traditional ATS search

Your ATS can tell you if a resume contains the word 'Python.' It can't tell you if the candidate actually built production systems with it. Talis understands the difference between keywords and competence.

Talis understands the relationship between: experience → role requirements → context → candidate fit.

Search beyond keywords
