Savant Network cuts operating costs by 30% with Mainder

One extension to find profiles. Another to pull the email. A sequencing tool, an ATS and, almost always, a spreadsheet that ties it all together. That is how many headhunting firms work, and every piece has its own license, its own login and its own way of exporting data.

Cost is only part of the problem. A candidate shows up in the search tool, gets a message from another one and their reply ends up in a third. When two consultants work similar profiles, nobody can see at a glance who has contacted whom, and the risk of writing to the same person twice is real.

And candidates notice. Strong profiles get plenty of recruiter messages, and a second generic message from the same firm is usually the last one they read.

AI Hunt finds passive candidates across professional networks, job boards and niche communities from a brief: requirements, seniority, location, languages. It works across 1B+ profiles and returns every candidate with contact details verified across 50+ sources, so search and enrichment stop being two steps in two tools.

A first message to a passive candidate works when it shows someone has actually looked at their profile. Mainder's sequences are written from what the agents found about the candidate and combine LinkedIn, email and WhatsApp in a single flow.

If the candidate replies, the sequence stops on every channel. If not, it tries another one. Opens and clicks tell you which messages work, and the unified inbox keeps two consultants from writing to the same person.

A candidate found by AI Hunt who answers the sequence moves into the pipeline without exporting anything. The AI candidate pipeline reorders each process by fit and recent activity, flags anyone who has sat too long at one stage, and keeps every message, note and stage change on the profile.

Stages are set per type of role, and several consultants can work the same pipeline without stepping on each other.

If your team works with a handful of separate tools, the useful first step is a list: which tool covers search, which covers contact details, which runs sequences and where the pipeline lives. With that list in front of you, you can see which pieces are redundant. The answer varies from team to team, and it is not always all of them.

After that, the daily work splits like this: the agents find and contact, the consultant runs the conversations and closes with the client. What used to be spread across several tools becomes one candidate record with its full history.
