An ATS that keeps your hiring pipeline moving

Q: Does this replace the ATS we already have?

It can. Alva includes applicant tracking, candidates, screening and pipeline in one system, so many teams run their whole process here. If you're keeping your current ATS for now, Alva connects with over 250 HR systems, and you can move to the full system when the team's ready.

Q: What does the AI agent handle in the pipeline?

The AI agent takes on the repeatable work in your pipeline: serving matched candidates, screening applicants against your must-haves, advancing or rejecting against your criteria and keeping candidates informed. You stay in control and step in wherever you want to make the call.

Q: Can we customise stages and automation rules?

Yes. You set the criteria for each hiring stage, save templates for recurring roles and run bulk actions across candidates. Automation only acts on the rules you've defined.

Q: How does screening work?

Every candidate gets standardised into the same comparable profile and screened side by side against your role requirements. Screening questions generated from the role filter out applicants who miss hard requirements, and the answers feed into each candidate profile.

Q: What do hiring managers see?

Exactly what they need to make their decision, and nothing else. Each hiring manager gets a guided flow with role briefs, interview questions and candidates to review, with no training or login required. Their part gets done, and you stop chasing them for it.

Alva Labs is an applicant tracking system run by an agent that screens applicants, keeps candidate information up to date and prepares the next step in your hiring pipeline. You set the criteria and permissions, review the evidence and make every hiring decision.
