Everything we have shipped, most recent first.
Request structured references in two clicks. The candidate fills in their referees through a hosted form, or you add referees yourself. Referees respond on a clean form with default questions plus any you add. You get a downloadable PDF with every response and an aggregated summary, and the candidate gets an email when their references arrive.
The home screen now shows a personalised greeting, your monthly scan stats, quick-action tiles, a "needs attention" card for candidates and references waiting on you, and your open jobs grouped by pipeline stage. Less scrolling, more signal.
A chat panel in the app that answers questions about how Aptly works. Grounded in the help docs, so the answers stay accurate to the product as it actually exists today. 50 questions per user per day.
New plan limits and prices across Starter, Pro, and Agency, with more generous scan allowances on every tier. Existing customers keep their current pricing.
Password strength enforcement on signup and reset, show/hide toggles on every password field, and a new in-app change-password flow. Sessions now time out after 60 minutes of inactivity with a warning before logout.
For developers integrating the Intelligence API: a ready-to-use Postman collection and .http file hosted at /integrations, linked from the API docs.
Per-organisation quota enforcement on the Intelligence API with a clean 429 response when you hit your limit, monthly usage archived for billing, an admin view with traffic-light usage indicators, and a customer-facing usage card on Profile > API Keys.
A new page at aptly.pro/security covering data handling, encryption, retention, and access controls. Linked from the API marketing page, the API docs, the footer, and the legal pages.
Structured 1 to 5 competency scoring with a recommendation and aggregated summary across all interviewers on a candidate. Hiring managers and clients can score through a tokenised link without an Aptly account, with pending invites you can resend or revoke.
The candidate view now has a 5-tab layout, a right rail with key signals, a communication chip showing email status, and a full timeline of every stage movement.
When you invite someone who already has a solo Aptly account, accepting the invite cleanly merges their account into your organisation. Includes a confirmation modal explaining what merges and what gets cancelled on their old plan.
A 60-second autoplay loop showing the core flow, plus a 2-minute walkthrough in a modal. Aptly without the sales call.
The Intelligence API is now gated per organisation behind an admin-controlled flag, with a per-org monthly CV counter visible to both customers and admins.
A new about.html page covering the founder story and the company. The homepage has been restructured around the two pillars: shortlist and candidate communication.
VAT and Tax ID, business name, and billing address are now collected at Checkout, so the invoice is correct from the first charge.
A cookie consent banner on both the marketing site and the app, with analytics that only initialise after consent. Compliant with POPIA and GDPR.
A toggle on jobs, candidates, and clients to filter down to items you own. Org owners now see a banner when seat count exceeds their plan limit.
A developer-facing product to integrate Aptly's CV scoring into your existing ATS or HR system. Async screening endpoint, key management, technical docs, and a customer-facing API Keys tab on Profile.
Search your candidate database by meaning, not just keywords. Powered by pgvector cosine similarity over CV embeddings, with a keyword fallback for new accounts with fewer embedded candidates.
A "Your impact" card on the home dashboard showing your scan volume and time saved, backed by a new endpoint that tracks first-screened date per recruiter.
Subscriptions and scan top-ups are now live through Stripe.
Share a candidate shortlist with the hiring manager through a token-gated link. They can leave comments on candidates that notify you in-app, with a comment-count badge surfacing the conversation.
Reset your password by email without going through support.
A questionnaire that turns your role notes into a complete job spec, flagging requirements that might be unrealistic for the market.
Sign in with Google, in addition to email and password.
aptly.pro went live as the public marketing site.
The first version: paste a job spec, drop in CVs, get a ranked and reasoned shortlist with candidate emails ready to send.
