AI candidate sourcing and talent rediscovery is AI that builds and works the candidate pipeline before an application arrives, for recruiters filling open roles. It matches open roles against a company's own past applicants sitting unused in the applicant tracking system, ranks and surfaces the best fits for a recruiter to approach, and optimizes career site content and outreach to attract more of the right applicants, instead of a recruiter starting each search from an empty external search or a job board.

Proactive outreach and activation is an AI agent that holds the conversation when a bank reaches out first to change something about a customer's account or products. It is triggered by an event or a campaign: low balance and fee avoidance alerts, payment and renewal reminders, card activation, dormant account reactivation and offers the customer already qualifies for, over messaging or voice, while the bank's own systems decide who is contacted and why. Reminders about appointments and deliveries the customer booked, and the in app coach the customer opens, are separate use cases.
