Product

The product is a web app with Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning functionality, helping the client to hire the most suitable experts for its customer companies. Specifically, the product is focused on automating the background check process, saving a lot of time for recruiters and improving operational efficiency for the client. 

Goals and objectives

  1. Automate the Process of Reference Calls for Background Checks: Developing an ML-powered solution that automatically schedules, conducts, and analyzes reference calls, eliminating the need for any intervention by the client’s employees.
  2. Optimize ML Solution: Ensuring that the AI part of the project performs at its best, with all reference calls adhering to a standardized set of questions, eliminating interviewer bias and variability.
  3. Turning Our Product into Software as a Service (SaaS): After a successful internal launch, release the product publicly, making it available for any organization that requires this functionality. 

Project challenge

  1. Automated Calls with Human-Like Voice: deliver planned functionality to improve mission-critical objectives for the client, managing unexpected scenarios and out-of-scope questions to prevent the conversations from breaking down.
  2. Blend Custom Development Expertise with 3rd-Party Integration: leverage our proficiency in Web Development and Machine Learning combined with the integration of cutting-edge out-of-the-box tools to deliver the most powerful and stable solution. 

Solution

We worked on this project for 4 months, and to reach our goals we assembled a team consisting of:

  • Solution Architect
  • Project Manager
  • Lead Backend Developer
  • Lead Frontend Developer
  • Backend Developer
  • Frontend Developer
  • Quality Assurance Engineer. 

The process started with initial research, the creation of Software Requirements Specification (SRS), and the design of UI/UX mockups of a web application. We decided to go with React for building user interfaces, due to our broad experience with it and a component-based structure that makes the codebase easier to manage and maintain for future product iterations. 

The highlight of the development process was the integration of Air.ai, a 3rd-party AI/ML service for phone call automation. It is the world’s first-ever AI service, capable of providing up to 40-minute-long phone calls that sound like a real human, with infinite memory and perfect recall. 

To integrate the AI/ML solution with the existing software infrastructure of the client, our team used a combination of API and web crawling to ensure accurate background checks for each case. 

We developed a custom admin panel to manage automated call results.

Finally, our QA Engineer conducted rigorous testing activities to make sure that the web app meets the requirements and works as expected in real-world environments.
