Sourcing, screening, interviews, offers — run by the same brain that runs your schedule, with you looped in by text at every decision that's yours to make.
The schedule is the earliest hiring signal.
Covered AI already runs your shifts, so it sees what an ATS never will: the same Friday gap going to overtime three weeks running, the bench that's one person too thin. When a pattern is worth a real hire — part-time or full-time — it says so, and one Y drafts the posting from the shape of your actual gaps.
Covered AI → youFridays keep coming up short — three dinner gaps in the last month went to overtime or a staffing partner. Worth hiring a part-time line cook? Reply Y and I'll draft the posting.

9:22 amCovered AIDrafted — line cook, part-time, Friday to Sunday evenings, pay range from your current rates. It's on your panel to review, or reply POST and it goes out everywhere.
Or open the door yourself — "post a job for two line cooks, full time" in a text, a call, or the console, and the same loop starts. Every posting is yours to edit before it goes anywhere.
One yes. Everywhere at once.
Publish and the role is syndicated out in one motion — the major job boards, the Qwick marketplace (people who've already worked your shifts see it first), a text-to-apply keyword on your own line, and a printable QR poster for the window. Applicants land in one place no matter which door they came through.

Every applicant screened in minutes. Not in a pile.
The first text says it's an AI, plainly. Every applicant for a role gets the same structured questions — fair by design — and the ones who clear them get invited to a real screening interview by phone, run by an AI interviewer proven across 80,000+ screening conversations. You shape its voice: "sound like a friendly shift lead, not a corporate recruiter." You can even hear a preview call before anyone else does.
Covered AIHi Rosa — I'm the hiring assistant for Harbor House, an AI working with the manager there. You applied for the line cook role. Two quick questions: are you 18 or over, and can you work Friday and Saturday evenings?

11:09 amCovered AIGreat. Next step is a short phone interview — about ten minutes, whenever suits you. Want me to call now, or tonight?
It books interviews the way it books shifts.
Tell it your windows in a sentence — "interviews Tuesday to Thursday, two to four" — and Covered AI only offers candidates times you're actually free, because it can see your board. Both sides confirmed by text, the interview lands on your schedule with reminders, and a candidate who wobbles gets rescheduled without you touching anything. An ATS asks for your calendar. Covered AI is your calendar.
Covered AI → youRosa M. cleared the screen for line cook — three years on the line, weekends open, can start next week. She can do Thursday 2:30 or Friday 3:00. Which works?

You hear one text when it matters.
The whole funnel runs itself and stays visible on your panel — but you don't have to watch it. Covered AI surfaces the candidates who clear your bar, parks the rest with a reason ("no weekend availability"), nudges the quiet ones twice, and lets go politely. Steer it in words: "more like Rosa." And nobody gets ghosted — every pass is a kind text, every candidate a closed loop.
A week of hiring, the way it should read: twenty-three applied, you talked to three, and the one you wanted said yes.
"Hire Rosa" is the whole workflow.
Say it from any door — "hire Rosa, $17, start Friday" — and the offer goes out by text. Her YES puts her on your roster, her first shifts land in the draft, and the same line that hired her now confirms her shifts and runs her clock. The distance from hired to scheduled, confirmed, and clocked in is zero, because it was one system the whole way.
The offer text goes out on your yes — pay, role, start date. Nothing fires without you.
Accepting flips a candidate into a teammate — proper intro text, consent, and all.
Her first shifts appear in your next draft, aimed at the exact gaps that started the search.
The AI is disclosed. The decisions are yours.
Candidates are told they're talking to an AI in the first message, both by text and on calls. Every applicant for a role answers the same structured questions. Offers and passes fire only on your word, a full record of every step is kept, and anyone who prefers a human channel gets one. Good hiring compliance and good hiring turn out to be the same shape.
Every shift. Covered.
