Built for recruitment, powered by AI

Generic AI tools weren't built for recruitment. They don't understand your market, your candidates, or how recruitment BD actually works. That's why we build custom.

Our AI systems are designed specifically for recruitment agencies. They understand the language of hiring, the nuances of different sectors, and the workflows your consultants use every day.

The result is AI that actually fits into your operation. Not a shiny toy that gets abandoned after a week, but a tool that makes your team measurably more productive.

From prospecting to outreach to candidate engagement, we help you implement AI where it makes the biggest impact.

How it works

We start with an audit of your current BD process. Where are the bottlenecks? Where is your team spending time on tasks that AI could handle? We identify the highest-impact opportunities first.

Then we build. Custom AI prospecting tools that surface the right targets. Automated outreach sequences that personalise at scale. Integration with your existing CRM and tech stack.

We don't just build and walk away. We train your team, optimise the systems over time, and ensure everything delivers measurable ROI. If it's not generating pipeline, we fix it.

This is consultancy, not a product. Every solution is tailored to your agency, your market, and your goals.

◆ FAQ

Frequently asked questions

AI helps recruitment BD by surfacing hiring signals (job postings, funding rounds, leadership changes), identifying decision-makers, drafting personalised outreach at scale, scoring leads against an Ideal Customer Profile, and automating follow-up sequences. Done well, it turns a recruiter's outbound effort from hours per prospect into minutes, without dropping personalisation quality.

Talent First is Addictivity's AI-powered business development tool for recruitment agencies. It identifies companies hiring in a recruiter's specialism, surfaces decision-makers with verified contact details, drafts personalised outbound, and reports daily on landed leads. Pricing starts from approximately £200/month for 1 to 3 billers. A free trial is available.

No. AI replaces the manual research, list-building and first-draft writing that consumes most BD time. The judgement calls (which prospects to prioritise, what message will land, how to handle a senior hiring manager's objection) still require an experienced biller. AI compresses the time per prospect. The recruiter still owns the relationship.

Talent First is priced per active user. Approximately £200 to £300/month for 1 to 3 billers and £500 to £600/month for 5 to 10 billers. A free trial is available for one user covering one search area. Bullhorn integration is in development. Other CRM integrations available on request.

Talent First combines job posting data, company hiring trends, funding announcements, leadership changes, and news signals to identify companies actively hiring in a specific specialism and geography. It then enriches each company with verified decision-maker contacts (named individual, email, phone) and delivers a daily lead list to the recruiter.
