The safety engine for your hiring stack.
Your ATS manages the workflow. BlindStairs manages the risk. Plug in a unified layer that standardizes how you attract, screen, and defend talent decisions—ensuring every hire is merit-based and legally protected.
The gap between tracking candidates and evaluating them.
Your ATS is built for logistics—scheduling and storage. It wasn't designed for decision defense. This leaves your team navigating complex compliance/bias risks without the right infrastructure.
"Strong Ivy League background. Fits the profile we need. Resume layout is professional."
"Technical interview was weak. Not a culture fit Warning Vague criteria detected. Subjective evaluation may lead to bias. for the team."
The Consistency Challenge
Subjectivity scales poorly. Without a unified screening engine, criteria often drift between different regions and hiring managers, making quality impossible to standardize.
The Liability Blindspot
Unstructured decisions. When rejection reasons live in mental notes or email threads, you lack the defensible data trail required to survive compliance audits and bias claims.
The Efficiency Ceiling
Forced trade-offs. High applicant volumes force teams to choose between speed (skimming resumes) and precision (fair evaluation). You shouldn't have to choose.
