Frequently Asked Questions

TextWork is a text-to-apply AI agent. Candidates text in — or get a text the moment they apply — and the agent screens them over SMS with your qualifying questions.

Your team gets a scored report, the full transcript, and a recommended next step. A person still decides who moves forward.


Text works because applicants reply to it. They ignore email and career portals, especially after a shift or from a jobsite.

A text that arrives the minute they apply gets answered — nights and weekends included — so you stop losing people in the first hour.


You define the screen: experience, availability, location, licenses or certs, start date, and any knockout.

TextWork asks one question at a time, follows up when an answer is incomplete, and writes a structured handoff your team can compare across every candidate.


Teams that hire at volume and cannot call every applicant: hourly and frontline roles, skilled trades, staffing desks, and lean talent-acquisition teams.

You do not need a recruiting department. Owners and hiring managers use it the same way.


Every conversation is saved with the transcript, extracted details, score, and recommended next step.

Your team reviews the dashboard, starts with the people who can actually take the job, and calls, schedules, or keeps texting from there.


Yes. TextWork qualifies and organizes the applicant. It does not trap them in automation.

Once someone is ready, your team has the context to text, call, or book them directly.


First-round screening cost is recruiter time: salary, minutes per screen, and how many people apply each month. At volume, most applicants never get a first call.

See what screening costs at your applicant volume, then match it to a plan.


About 5 minutes for a simple funnel. You write the questions TextWork should ask, connect Indeed, your website, your ATS, or a dedicated number, and start testing conversations immediately.


Indeed, your website, job-board ads, an ATS like SmartRecruiters, QR codes, inbound texts, or a manual import.

The important part is that every new applicant gets an immediate SMS path instead of sitting in an inbox.
