🤖 What makes Braintrust AIR different from other AI hiring tools?
Braintrust AIR is the only end-to-end AI recruiting platform that automates job description creation, precision candidate matching, on-demand video interviewing, and onboarding. Unlike generic job boards like LinkedIn or Indeed, Braintrust AIR uses proprietary models trained on 4+ years of hiring data and 1.2M+ vetted talent profiles—helping hiring teams automate interviews, reduce screening time, and increase candidate quality.
📈 Which roles does Braintrust AIR work best for?
Braintrust AIR excels at high-volume, inbound-heavy roles. It’s especially effective when you’re screening dozens—or hundreds—of applicants and need to surface the most qualified talent quickly. For executive search or niche roles, AIR can complement a more targeted outreach strategy.
🌐 Is Braintrust AIR limited to tech roles?
No. While Braintrust originated in tech hiring, Braintrust AIR supports roles across every function—including sales, customer success, finance, operations, and more. As our AI continues to learn from more industries, its effectiveness only grows.
🧬 How was Braintrust AIR trained? What data is used?
AIR’s AI models are trained on proprietary datasets from over 1.2 million candidate profiles, thousands of completed job placements, and continuous feedback from both clients and talent. The training combines machine learning, deep learning, and generative AI with rigorous validation for accuracy, fairness, and performance.
🔐 Is company or candidate data shared across clients?
Never. All client and talent data stays within Braintrust’s secure infrastructure. No data is shared externally or across organizations. Your data powers your experience only—maintaining full privacy and security.
🔄 Is completed job data used to improve the models?
Yes. Braintrust AIR continuously learns from job outcomes—such as contract length, client feedback, and candidate success metrics—to improve future job matches, screening accuracy, and performance predictions.
🧑🎓 Does AIR support soft skill evaluation?
Yes. Braintrust AIR can be configured to evaluate soft skills such as communication, clarity, storytelling ability, and collaboration style. These attributes are scored as part of the AI-generated candidate scorecards, which hiring teams can review alongside technical assessments.
📉 How do talent feel about interviewing with AI?
AIR’s on-demand video interviews see an average 70%+ completion rate, depending on role type, delivery channel, and candidate instructions. Engagement improves with personalized messaging and clear expectations—which Braintrust helps optimize during pilot phases.
⌛ What happens if a candidate takes too long to answer during the interview?
Candidates are given 60 seconds to respond to each question. If they don’t answer, AIR prompts them up to three times before ending the session. This balance discourages stalling or misuse (like using ChatGPT mid-interview) while allowing space for thoughtful responses.
⚖️ How does Braintrust AIR help reduce bias in hiring?

- Transparent scoring criteria
- Clear match rationale for every candidate
- Ongoing performance audits to spot and correct any emerging bias
