AI Voice Agent for Candidate Screening Calls in India

Is this AI resume screening or AI CV screening?

No — this is voice-call screening, not resume or CV file parsing. Vyora's agent doesn't read or rank uploaded resumes; it calls each candidate and conducts a live screening conversation, asking the questions you configure (availability, experience, location, salary expectation) and capturing structured answers. If you're looking for a tool that parses and ranks resume PDFs, that's a different category of product than what Vyora does.

Does the AI automatically decide which candidates are qualified?

No. The agent captures a transcript, an AI summary, and your screening question answers into the dashboard after every call — your recruiter reviews and filters that data to build a shortlist. There isn't an automatic scoring or threshold engine that silently disqualifies candidates. If you want the agent to hand off a live call to a human in specific situations, you can script that using the call-transfer tool, but that's a configured, explicit behavior, not automatic candidate ranking.

Can candidates be screened in Hindi or regional languages?

Yes — Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Marathi, Bengali, Gujarati, and English. For blue-collar, delivery, retail, and Tier 2/3 hiring specifically, Hindi-first screening matters: candidates respond more naturally and drop off less than on an English-only call.

How is this different from an ATS (applicant tracking system)?

An ATS stores and organizes applications; some ATS tools also parse resume text to rank candidates. Vyora doesn't replace your ATS — it replaces the manual phone-screening step. You export candidates from wherever they applied (Naukri, Apna, your ATS) and the agent handles the calling; results go back into your dashboard, and you can export them into your existing hiring workflow.

What does it cost compared to a recruiter making the same calls?

A human recruiter making screening calls costs roughly ₹40,000–₹70,000/month all-in. Vyora starts at ₹799/month (1,700 credits, about 113 minutes of calling); at higher volumes you top up credits as needed. Credits never expire.

Is this compliant with TRAI regulations?

Candidates who applied through a job portal or submitted their details to you count as having an existing relationship, which allows 160-series compliant calling. Cold outreach to a purchased database needs 140-series registration and DND scrubbing instead. Vyora handles the 160-series compliance layer for calls made through the platform — see our full TRAI compliance guide for the details.
