Paradox (Olivia)
Conversational recruiting assistant (Olivia) that screens candidates, answers questions, and books interviews over text and chat.
What it does
Paradox builds a conversational recruiting assistant, known as Olivia, that handles the front end of hiring through text message and chat. Candidates can ask questions about a job, complete screening questions, and book an interview in a single conversation, often within minutes of applying, with no login or resume upload required.
The company focuses on hourly and frontline hiring, where speed to schedule is the biggest driver of whether a candidate shows up. It is widely used in restaurants, retail, healthcare, and other high-turnover industries, and it also supports offer communications and onboarding task reminders so new hires stay engaged between offer and start date.
Paradox positions itself as an automation layer that sits on top of enterprise ATS and HCM systems rather than replacing them, and it maintains integrations and partnerships with major platforms including SAP SuccessFactors and Workday.
