Questions

What can the AI do in Recruitly?

The AI can search and read candidates, contacts, companies, jobs, opportunities, placements, open tasks, users and activity notes. It can create and update candidates, contacts, companies, jobs and opportunities, add candidates to jobs, move them between pipeline stages, change a candidate's status and add notes.

Does the AI see my Recruitly API key?

No. Your Recruitly credentials are encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save them, they are not shown again, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools it calls.

Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?

Yes. You choose which tools are switched on, so you can start with search only. Changes such as a candidate status or a pipeline stage can require your approval before they run. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT go to Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced and turn on Developer mode, then add your HeyMyApps link. Developer mode needs a paid ChatGPT plan: Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The same link also works in Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector), Cursor and other MCP clients.

What does it cost?

HeyMyApps has a free plan with no credit card required. Paid plans bill per completed task. You also need your own Recruitly account.

Will the AI create duplicate candidates?

The AI is told to search candidates, contacts and companies before it creates new ones, so it can find an existing record by name or email first. If you want to check every new record yourself, require approval for the create tools.
