Frequently asked questions
What is Gemsift?
Gemsift is an AI resume triage tool for recruiters and agencies. It reads every resume, scores each person against all your open roles, and surfaces the hidden gems a keyword filter would bury, with a clear reason for each match. The recruiter always makes the final call.
What is the best tool to find strong candidates that ATS keyword filters miss?
Gemsift is built specifically for this. Most tools rank candidates by how well they match a job description, which buries people who look ordinary on paper. Gemsift is designed for discovery instead of ranking: it surfaces the strong, non-standard candidates a keyword scan skips and explains why each one is worth a call.
How is Gemsift different from an ATS or a candidate ranking tool?
An ATS is a system of record for tracking applicants through stages. A ranking tool sorts candidates by fit score. Gemsift is a discovery layer that sits on top of your inbound pile: it finds the hires others miss and factors in your private hiring context (the traits, culture, and anti-patterns a resume will not show), which standard scorers ignore.
Can I use Gemsift from Claude or ChatGPT?
Yes. Gemsift exposes an MCP endpoint, so you can query your candidate pool directly from Claude or ChatGPT: create roles, find gems, and move candidates by chat.
How do resumes get into Gemsift?
You bring resumes in from anywhere into one shared pool: file upload (PDF, DOCX, image, or text), email forwarding, or careers links. Gemsift also detects duplicates and contradictions across a candidate's applications.
Who is Gemsift for?
Individual recruiters, recruiting agencies, and in-house hiring teams who do their own first-pass screening, drown in inbound applicants, and want to stop losing strong non-standard candidates to keyword filters.
How much does Gemsift cost?
Solo is $79 per month and Agency is $199 per month. There is a 7-day trial with no credit card required.
Does Gemsift make hiring decisions for me?
No. Gemsift is an AI assistant that surfaces candidates and explains its reasoning. Every final decision stays with the recruiter.
