Bottom line

Mandy by Magnate is an AI scheduling assistant for recruitment teams that you CC into an email thread, after which she agrees a time with candidates and clients and sends the calendar invite. It suits agency recruiters who spend hours swapping availability by email. Plans start at $12/user/mo, Gold with a branded address is $45/user/mo plus a one off onboarding fee, and Agency is custom.

Stands out for: There is no booking link: the candidate or client just replies in plain words and Mandy handles the rest in the same thread, including follow ups and reschedules. She can run several candidate negotiations against one client's availability at the same time.

Watch out for: ATS integrations and multi calendar support are only on the custom Agency plan, and SOC 2 and ISO 27001 are still in progress. The founder calls it version one, there is no free trial, and there are no outside reviews yet.

Overview

Magnate Software is an Irish company that makes Mandy, an AI scheduling assistant built for recruitment teams. The founder, Daragh Jordan, built it after years of booking interviews by email while leading recruitment teams.

Mandy works by CC. You write to a candidate or client as you normally would and copy Mandy in. She asks for their availability, checks your calendar, offers real slots, follows up if they go quiet, handles reschedules and puts the invite in every attendee's calendar. Emails go out from your own address, not a no-reply.

The site describes three main uses: coordinating a client and several shortlisted candidates in parallel, booking screening calls by pulling the name and email from an incoming CV, and arranging multi person meetings across calendars and locations.

Setup involves IT connecting Outlook or Gmail once, then choosing Mandy's working hours, meeting types, tone and signature. Magnate says data is never used to train AI models, it is GDPR compliant, and SOC 2 and ISO 27001 are in progress.

Minimum is $12/user/mo on Magnate's own address. Gold is $45/user/mo plus a one off onboarding fee, with Mandy on your domain, a management dashboard and priority support. Agency is custom and adds ATS integrations, multi calendar support, dedicated onboarding and a custom SLA. Prices are also shown in EUR and GBP.

Who it's for

Best for

  • Agency recruiters booking candidate and client interviews by email
  • High volume desks booking screening calls from incoming CVs
  • Senior search firms where sending a booking link to a client feels wrong
  • Teams on Outlook or Gmail who do not want a new login

Not ideal for

  • Teams that need ATS integration on a low priced plan
  • Buyers who need SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certification today

Key features

CC to schedule. Copy Mandy into any email and she asks the other side for availability, checks your calendar and books the meeting in the same thread.

Chases and reschedules. She follows up when people go quiet, flags threads that stall and moves meetings when someone asks for a change.

Parallel coordination. Forward a client's availability with several shortlisted candidates and she runs each negotiation at once, or lines up multi person meetings.

Your own brand. On Gold, Mandy sends from an address on your domain with your name, photo and signature, and managers get a dashboard of time to book and bookings per recruiter.
