AI Copilot

What is Manatal’s AI Copilot?

Manatal’s AI Copilot is your AI-powered assistant built directly into Manatal. It helps recruiters and hiring teams work faster, stay focused, and make better-informed decisions by transforming existing Manatal data into clear summaries, insights, and suggestions exactly where you already work.
