Analyze sourcing channel effectiveness
What You Do Today
Review which channels (LinkedIn, job boards, referrals, agencies, events) produce the best candidates at the lowest cost. Reallocate sourcing spend based on results.
AI That Applies
Channel attribution — AI tracks candidates from source through hire and tenure, providing true ROI by channel including quality-of-hire metrics, not just application volume.
Technologies
How It Works
The system ingests candidates from source through hire and tenure as its primary data source. The processing layer applies the appropriate analytical models to the structured data, generating scored outputs that surface the most actionable insights. The results integrate into the practitioner's existing workflow — presenting recommendations, flags, or automated outputs alongside their normal working context.
What Changes
You discover that referrals produce 3x higher quality hires at half the cost of job boards. Or that agency hires in engineering have 40% higher 1-year retention. Data replaces assumptions.
What Stays
Channel strategy — deciding whether to invest in employer brand, expand referral programs, or negotiate agency rates — requires market intuition and relationship management.
What To Do Next

Time per cycle
How to calculate
Measure how long analyze sourcing channel effectiveness takes end-to-end today, then after AI adoption.
Why it matters
The most visible improvement is speed. If AI doesn't save time, question whether it's adding value.
Quality of output
How to calculate
Track error rates, rework frequency, or stakeholder satisfaction scores before and after.
Why it matters
Speed without quality is just faster mistakes. Measure both.
