Are candidates told about your AI hiring tools?
The EU AI Act treats AI used to screen or assess job candidates as high-risk, and GDPR requires candidates to be told about automated decisions. We open your careers page in a real browser, match what loads against a registry of 35+ AI hiring vendors, and check your candidate privacy notice.

Questions
Is AI recruitment high-risk under the EU AI Act?
Yes. AI used to filter applications, assess candidates or evaluate interviews is listed as high-risk in Annex III, with obligations applying from August 2026.
Which tools do you detect?
AI interview, assessment and screening vendors such as HireVue, TestGorilla, Paradox and Codility, among 35+ in our registry. A standard applicant tracking system alone is never flagged.
What counts as telling candidates?
Naming the tool or explaining the AI use in the candidate privacy notice linked from your careers page.
What if there's no careers page?
The check is marked not applicable. We never guess.
Is the checker free?
Yes. You can scan any website once a day for free with no sign-up.
