Purpose

A module is a building block. An AI Coworker is what you actually deploy: one or more modules given a standing role and governed authority on your hiring team, the same way you’d define a job for a person. Not a raw agent, and not a chatbot — a durable role for AI, created, approved, and revoked through the same controls you’d use for a human hire.

The Agent Charter

Every AI Coworker carries a charter. It’s what makes “governed” concrete rather than a marketing word:

Role & mandate

What the coworker is for, in one sentence a hiring manager would sign off on.

Standing goals

The outcomes it’s accountable for across every task it runs, not just one session.

Scope of authority

Exactly which systems and actions it may touch. Nothing beyond an explicit allow-list.

Decision authority

Where it may act on its own, and where a person must approve first. Human-approved by default. See Human Review.

Escalation & lifecycle

The named person it reports to, and a one-click suspend or revoke, the same as managing a human hire’s access.

Three coworkers, mirroring a real hiring team

Each coworker is built from modules in the catalog — see that page for which specific modules are available today versus upcoming. Each is separately auditable and pausable on its own, independent of the others.

Sourcing & Screening

Keeps a qualified shortlist ready for every open role: drafts and posts roles, matches and re-matches the candidate pool, screens resumes, and runs an initial phone screen — then hands the recruiter a ranked shortlist with a full audit trail.

Coordinator

Keeps interview logistics and assessment moving: triages scheduling threads, proposes slots, and runs the avatar, coding, and panel rounds you’ve enabled. Every outgoing message and calendar action is confirmed by a person first.

Closing

Removes offer and verification busywork: surfaces the ranked decision, runs the HR round, and completes verification steps. Extending an offer always stays a human decision.

What this replaces

Exterview doesn’t sell a headcount subtraction — it sells a supervision ratio. One recruiter oversees a portfolio of coworkers, each escalating anything outside its charter to the named person responsible for it, so oversight scales with hiring volume instead of headcount.

FAQs

No. It’s how the same modules are packaged, governed, and licensed together — a standing role built from one or more modules, not a separate agent you build yourself.
Only within its charter’s explicitly allow-listed scope, and consequential actions — anything that spends money, messages a candidate, or affects a hiring decision — are human-approved by default. Nothing adverse is decided autonomously.
Yes. Suspend or revoke a coworker’s charter at any time, the same way you’d remove a person’s access, without affecting the other coworkers.
Availability follows the modules each one is built from — see the module catalog for what’s live versus upcoming. The charter and governance model apply identically regardless of which modules are enabled yet.
