Talismatic TalentBot
Talismatic TalentBot is a web-based conversational chatbot for company career pages. It answers candidate questions, recommends roles, and guides applicants through hiring; candidates can apply in the chat rather than navigate job listings separately. Matching uses skills, experience, and career goals. Recruiters can configure pre-screening questions, score candidates, and filter out unqualified applicants. The chatbot also sends application confirmations, interview reminders, scheduling changes, and next-step updates. ATS Lite includes candidate pipeline management, configurable filters and scorecards, and role-specific AI criteria. Shortlisted candidates move automatically into the TalentAI pipeline. Talismatic describes deployment as adding a chat widget to a career site, and its blog advertises a complimentary three-month trial for a personalized deployment. The First role plan is free; paid pricing is on request. Talismatic is headquartered in Mumbai, India. Its privacy policy says the company makes reasonable efforts to secure data but cannot guarantee account information security.
