Recruitment tools & process automation · built by recruiters
30+ years combined on the desk, running our own successful agency. We've used every CRM and ATS going — and frankly, most are outdated and not fit for purpose. So we stopped hacking ours to fit our workflow, and built the tools we always wanted.
The problem
Constantly bending your CRM to your workflow instead of the other way round — from systems that are generic, dated, and built by people who’ve never worked a desk.
And you’re sick of…
One stack. One login. Your AI, your terms. No lock-in.
Our AI stance
Every provider in recruitment is pushing AI right now. Here's the flaw most won't mention: they bake a single AI model deep into their system. You don't get a choice of model. You don't know what happens to your data. And when the real cost of AI lands — or when that one model goes down — your workflows, your users, and your bill are all hostage to someone else's decision.
Every VigoLabs tool is built on an MCP layer — the open standard that lets any AI talk to your data, securely and on your terms. Point your favourite LLM at it, use our built-in models, or run both. The choice is yours, not ours.
Swap models whenever you like — or run without one. You're never locked to a single provider, including ours.
Your tools don't break when a model does. The stack keeps working; AI is a layer you control, not a dependency you're shackled to.
Your data doesn't leave without your say-so. You choose the model, the terms, and what it's ever allowed to see.
The stack
A tech stack that's bespoke to recruitment, because we built it for ourselves first. Everything hangs off VIGO CRM, every tool speaks MCP — one login, no juggling providers, no lock-in.
The system of record, done right.
The spine of the stack. Candidates, jobs, signals, search and pipeline — built the way recruiters actually work, so you're navigating and searching the way your brain already does. Everything else plugs straight into it.
Analytics for recruiters.
Let's be honest — most built-in CRM analytics is, frankly, shit. Strix isn't. Build your own metrics and track them, filter by user, team or company, and read the room at a glance: stat cards with trends up or down, ratios, insights, leaderboards and records. Connect the MCP tool and ask Claude "did we have a good week? who hit target?" — and watch it unfold.

Your front door should work for you.
Most recruitment websites are generic and, frankly, unfit for purpose — a brochure that just sits there. So ask yourself: does yours actually capture your audience and deliver revenue? When a client searches for a recruiter in your niche, where do you rank on Google — and do the major LLMs cite you as an authority? We built ours to do all three, with landing pages that push signals straight into the CRM. And guess what — it works.
A bespoke project — get in touch
Record & transcribe calls on any platform.
WhatsApp, FaceTime, Teams — if the call happens on your computer, Echo captures it. Set your own call types (candidate, qualification, BD, client discovery), auto-summarise, and log the notes straight back to your CRM. Hit record, hit finish, done. What it unlocks: hours of admin saved, real consistency, coaching tailored to each recruiter, market sentiment and intel — and any lead uncovered mid-call fires straight into your CRM. Cool, eh?

The operational layer, done for you.
Forecasting, cashflow, revenue, marketing — for most agencies it's death by spreadsheet. VIGO OS is the home for the operational side of your business, whitelabelled to your brand. No more scattered tabs and formulas held together with hope. It just works.
Multichannel sequencing.
WhatsApp campaigns, LinkedIn DMs and connection requests at scale — outreach that runs in the background while you work the desk. One sequence, every channel, no tab-juggling.
Consultancy & process automation
The done-for-you arm of VigoLabs. Buy the stack, or have us build and automate around you — usually both. Sold as bespoke projects, scoped founder-to-founder.
