Kwal is an AI voice agent built to conduct job-candidate interviews without a human recruiter present. Founded in 2023 in San Francisco, the company built its product around telephone- and web-based conversations designed to sound close to a live human screener rather than a scripted phone tree.
The agent asks adaptive follow-up questions based on candidate answers, records emotional and language signals for the hiring team, and pushes results into more than 45 applicant tracking systems after each call. Kwal states its infrastructure scales to a million concurrent connections, and its multilingual support lets it screen candidates in their native language instead of English only.
The tool targets recruiting teams and staffing agencies handling high call volumes across hourly, seasonal, or high-turnover roles. Kwal does not publish self-serve pricing; prospective customers get a custom quote after a sales demo.
