Purpose

Smaya hasn’t shipped yet. Its first release won’t be able to take an action or change data, so there’s nothing to gate yet, but the control model is designed in from the start, before any action capability ships.

The control model

Read-only in the first release

Smaya’s first release will answer questions with citations. It won’t be able to start a session, change a record, or take any action.

Approval before any future action

If Smaya ever gains the ability to act on your behalf, that action is designed to require your explicit approval first, nothing changes automatically.

Specific to your organization

Every answer is grounded only in your organization’s own knowledge and the record on screen, never another customer’s data.

Redacted by role, automatically

Compensation figures and internal-only signals — integrity flags, private panel notes — are filtered out of a hiring-manager or candidate answer before it’s shown, not something anyone configures per question.

Logged for review

Every question, answer, and citation is recorded, so your compliance team can review what was asked and where the answer came from.
No autonomous adverse decisions, now or planned. Smaya is not designed to ever reject or disadvantage a candidate on its own, that judgment stays with a person, the same standard held everywhere else in Exterview. See Responsible AI.

Why it’s built this way

Designing the approval gate before any action capability exists, rather than bolting it on afterward, is what makes it trustworthy for regulated, enterprise hiring: the control model isn’t a promise to add later, it’s the starting point.

You do. The design requires explicit approval before any action executes, nothing is designed to happen automatically.
