Newer than the footage below.
These shipped after the walkthroughs were filmed, so you will not see them in the chapters — they are in the product now, and you can try them on the demo account. New footage follows.
Send a candidate to a client without leaving the desk
Build the submission pack and email it to the client in one action, from your own mailbox. The moment it goes is recorded — who it went to and when — so if two agencies put the same person forward there is an answer to who was first.
Shortlist from the pool, submit in one go
Tick the people you want, find the vacancy, send. One email to the client with a pack each, and every candidate recorded as their own submission.
Message a shortlist in one go
Write it once and send it to everyone you have ticked. Each person gets their own email — nobody is copied in and nobody sees who else was contacted — and it lands in each candidate’s message thread.
Speed to client, measured
How long it actually takes your desk to get somebody in front of a client, and which vacancies have had nobody sent to them yet, oldest first.
Your own compliance document list
Define the documents your sector and your clients ask for — paediatric first aid, occupational health, professional registration, whatever it is — instead of a fixed list. Starter sets for healthcare, education and early years.
Candidates send their own paperwork
A candidate uploads their own documents and they arrive marked awaiting check, sitting at the top of your screen until one of your recruiters has opened and confirmed it. Until then it is a submission, not evidence.
Pick the one that matters to you.
The walkthrough structure follows the recruiter workflow from dashboard through candidates, jobs, applications, matching, interviews and team activity.

Recruiter is £25 a month a seat — 82p a day, falling to £22.50 and £20 as the desk grows — and the candidates you carry never take a seat at all. A year of one seat is less than the fee on a single placement.
View Team PricingMy desk
Roles tracked, candidates in pipeline, interviews and offers — counted off your desk, not typed in by anybody.
- Nobody types these numbers in
- Interviews and offers, live right now
- Opens on the candidates who need you today
Talent pool
Real Boolean search across your own bench — AND, OR, NOT and brackets, the same syntax you already use on a job board.
- Proper Boolean, not a keyword box
- Filter by seniority, availability and last contact
- Find the three worth calling, not the ninety
Candidate plan
A plan per candidate — and the readiness check that decides whether you should be sending them out at all.
- Compliance checked before submission, not after
- Linked to you, or free for a colleague to pick up
- The next action recorded, not remembered
My tasks
Most placements are lost to a follow-up nobody made. Overdue sits at the top, every item tied to the candidate it belongs to.
- Overdue first, attached to its candidate
- Compliance expiries raise their own tasks
- Chase what is actually late, not everything
Pipeline
The whole desk as one board — and each card offers only the moves that are legal from where it stands.
- A card per application, in its real column
- Only legal moves, so the status stays true
- Spot the stall before the client does
Team management
Seats counted plainly, and the cost lever most agencies miss: recruiters take a seat, the job seekers in your pipeline never do.
- Candidates cost you nothing, however many you carry
- Seats added and removed as the team moves
- Per-seat price falls as the desk grows
Communications
One thread per candidate, stored encrypted — and a message written there can go out as a real email without leaving the record.
- Every message encrypted where it is stored
- Send as a real email from inside the thread
- Nothing stranded in a personal inbox
CV template library
Everything you send out looks like it came from one firm — and every document records exactly which template version produced it.
- House style applied, not reapplied by hand
- Versioned, with an audit trail per document
- CVs and cover letters from one library
Analytics and reports
The numbers you would otherwise rebuild in a spreadsheet every month — funnel, time to hire, source effectiveness.
- Three client-ready reports, any date range
- Runs queued, so a long range never blocks you
- Evidence for the review, not anecdote
Branding and help
White-label the whole application in your agency’s own look — behind its own password, so branding is not something any recruiter can change by accident.
- Your colours and logo on every screen
- Its own password, separate from a login
- Help on the screen you are actually on
Application report
The pack you would otherwise assemble by hand before every client call — every application for one candidate, with status, date and fit already computed.
- Every application on record, on one page
- A fit score already on every row
- Client-ready without retyping a thing
End-to-end recruiter journey
The complete recruiter workflow, start to finish - roughly eight minutes, narrated.
You have just watched a desk run for eight minutes. It costs 82p a day, per recruiter.
Recruiter is £25 a month a seat, and the first fourteen days cost nothing at all.
Put that next to what it is for. A year of one seat is less than the fee on a single placement. And it is the only line on the desk that does not grow with the work: the candidates you carry cost nothing, however many hundreds are on the bench. The subscription is not the decision. The decision is whether the team spends another quarter rebuilding the pipeline in a spreadsheet, chasing compliance by email, and losing placements to a follow-up nobody made. You have seen it work. The only thing left is whether you use it.
- Recruiters take a seat. Candidates never doBring your whole bench onto the platform without it costing either of you a penny.
- One shared board, not five spreadsheetsEverybody on the same pipeline, the same candidates and the same state of play.
- Fourteen days on your own deskReal vacancies, real candidates, your own compliance rules. No card needed.
Fourteen days free before you pay anything, and no card to start. Subscribe when it has earned it, and cancel in PayPal whenever you like.
Eight sectors.
Eight sets of paperwork.
Healthcare, education, early years, construction, energy and offshore, driving and logistics, financial services and security-cleared work each check different credentials, and no two of them are the same. A CSCS card is not a DBS. An OEUK medical is not a Driver CPC. ATS Engine ships a starting set for all eight — 44 credential types between them — and every one is yours to edit.
Who can work, and who is already working.
Ask who is free on Tuesday night and get a list you can actually ring. Book somebody onto the shift from that list and they come off it — so the consultant at the next desk does not phone a person who is already out.
A clash is refused, not warned about. Somebody who offered the whole day counts as working the whole day, so an early shift blocks the night as well.
Your document list, not ours.
Apply the set for your sector in a click, then change whatever does not fit. Add “Asbestos Awareness” or “CA-EBS” in a minute — no release, no waiting on us. A desk covering two sectors applies two, and nothing is hidden from anybody.
Every document type carries its own expiry, its own re-check cadence, and whether that expiry may raise a task at all. Anything falling due inside thirty days becomes somebody's job automatically.
Three things worth checking before you trust any of this.
Every recruitment product on the market claims to save you time. Here are the questions that separate the ones that mean it — ask them of us, and of whoever else you are looking at.
What happens if I want to leave?
The account owner exports the whole organisation from inside the product — one CSV per table, a manifest of exactly what was written, and every document. Not a support ticket.
The eleven-step checklistEverything you need to get your data out.
Is my data mixed in with other agencies?
There is one organisation boundary and nothing crosses it. Candidate records are never pooled between agencies and are never used to fill anybody else’s roles. The export checks every single row against your organisation id and aborts entirely rather than emitting one foreign record.
Can I see it before I hand over an email address?
Yes — the two demo logins are at the foot of the homepage, and they go into the real application rather than a demo of it. Every screenshot on this page was taken from those accounts.

Every country hires.
Only the paperwork changes.
Somewhere today a hospital is short of nurses, a site is short of a plant operator, and a school is short of a teacher for Monday. That has never been a British problem. What differs between Manchester, Melbourne, Munich and Milwaukee is the name of the certificate — not the job.
The engine does not know a border
Fit scoring reads the posting you give it and the CV you hold, not a country. Nothing in the matching, the scoring or the workflow asks where you are.
Anywhere in the world.
The paperwork is yours to write
A desk in Texas builds I‑9 and state licensure exactly the way a desk in Fife builds DBS — same fields, same expiry, same thirty-day task. The US sets ship too.
Same workflow. Everywhere.
Your words, not our vocabulary
Shifts are named in whatever your sector calls them — early, late, night, long day, AM, PM, rotation. Sectors, stages and document types are entered rather than chosen from a list we decided on.
Your process. Your way.
One shared board, not five separate logins.
Team pricing is designed around seats, so the platform can grow with the people using it.
Don't buy another place to store CVs. Give the desk a connected way to work.
ATS Engine is built around the recruiter workflow: candidates, CV information, jobs, matching, applications, interviews, team visibility and reporting. The walkthroughs show the journey chapter by chapter so you can judge the value for yourself.
Use the real thing, right now.
Two live demo accounts, no sign-up needed. Log straight into the real application as either side of the platform.
Try it on your own bench.
Fourteen days of the whole desk, no card, nothing to cancel.
