Hirelix
Hirelix helps recruiters reuse their own resumes, candidate lists and notes, match saved candidates to new job briefs, review supporting sources and items that need confirmation, and prepare client recommendation pages and email drafts. Recruiters can record candidate feedback against a role. Email sending requires recruiter approval.
From $49/mo 7-day free trial
Bottom line
Hirelix is a personal AI agent for independent headhunters and boutique search consultants that works only from the resumes, candidate lists and notes you already have. It matches saved candidates to a new brief, prepares client recommendation pages and email drafts, and costs $49 a month after a 7-day trial with 200 credits and no card.
Stands out for: It keeps your own pool working over time: a call note saved months ago can bring a candidate back when a matching brief arrives. Recommendations come with the supporting sources they draw on and a list of items still to confirm, and you can record candidate feedback against each role. Email sending requires your approval through a connected mailbox.
Watch out for: It does not source new candidates or sell database access, and it is not an ATS: there is no automatic ATS sync, so records come in through CSV, PDF and DOCX uploads. Gmail inbox reading is not available, AI work draws on 3,000 monthly credits that do not roll over, and it is aimed at headhunters in the US and Canada.
Overview
Hirelix is a conversational agent built for headhunters. You upload a job brief plus candidate resumes (PDF or DOCX) or a CSV list, and it saves them as candidate records, roles and notes you can come back to in later conversations.
Ask it to compare candidates against a role and it returns a recommendation with trade-offs, the supporting sources it used and the items that still need confirming. Each role keeps its own requirements and assessments, so a decision on one role does not become a judgment for every role.
For the people you choose it prepares a client recommendation page with the selected resumes, which you can edit, share as a link or export. You can record candidate feedback against each role, and it stays tied to that role.
Email drafts are prepared for review; sending requires your approval through a connected mailbox. Outlook access depends on the permissions granted, and Gmail inbox reading is not currently available, though emails can be pasted or uploaded for analysis.
Saved candidate profiles and records can be exported or deleted, and the agent can remember explicit preferences such as the tone of your client recommendations.
Who it's for
Best for

Key features
Candidate matching from your own pool. Compares the candidates you have saved against a new job brief and explains who to put forward and the trade-offs.
Supporting sources and items to confirm. Recommendations list the sources they draw on and the points that still need confirming before anything goes to a client.
Client recommendation pages. Builds a recommendation page with the resumes you choose, which you can edit, share as a link or export. Candidate feedback can be recorded against each role.
Approval-only email drafts. Prepares client and candidate emails for review; sending requires your approval through a connected mailbox.
Resume and CSV imports. Takes candidate lists as CSV and resumes as PDF or DOCX, and asks you to resolve duplicate identities or conflicting details.
Saved context across roles. Candidate profiles, call notes, briefs and recorded feedback stay available, so an old note can bring a candidate back when a matching role arrives.
