SmartRecruiters claims "70% reduction in time-to-hire" and "50% increase in hiring velocity."
The Mokka Difference:

- Mokka Complements SmartRecruiters: We work well with SmartRecruiters customers who want both speed and quality. SmartRecruiters' Winston Intelligence handles workflow automation, scheduling, and candidate communication. Mokka's intelligence handles screening depth—conducting pre-screening interviews, verifying accomplishments, and running integrity checks that ensure the candidates moving through SmartRecruiters' fast workflows are genuinely qualified.
- Hiring Velocity vs. Hiring Quality: SmartRecruiters emphasizes "50% increase in hiring velocity" through automation. Mokka ensures quality keeps pace with that velocity—cross-checking every pre-screening response against resumes, LinkedIn profiles, and third-party data to verify candidates are worth the accelerated process.

Mokka conducts structured pre-screening interviews with integrity verification—ensuring responses are authentic, consistent across sources, and provide reviewable evidence for hiring decisions.
