For recruitment agencies
You sent the CV on Tuesday.
Nobody can tell you what happened next.
A consultant submits a candidate and the process goes dark. Did anyone open it? Did they get past the summary? Is Thursday a chase or a waste of a phone call? Every agency answers this from memory and tone of voice.
Send each submission as a named link and the answer stops being a feeling. Your desk shows every candidate you have out, grouped by the client they went to, in one of four states.
- SentThe link exists. Nothing has happened to it yet.
- OpenedSomebody opened it and left quickly. Worth knowing, and not the same as reading.
- ReadOpened and held for 30 seconds or more, which is past the header and the first role.
- Gone quietNever opened, and now more than 14 days old. Silence has become the answer.
The desk says what happened and never why. A submission nobody opened may mean the role was filled, or that the client reads attachments, or that the candidate was wrong for it. The product does not know which, so it does not guess.

Illustration, not a recording — the names and durations here are made up. Your desk shows your own submissions.
What you get, and what it is for.
Five things. Each one says what it is, what it does, and what changes in your week because of it.
- 01
One screen per submission
Drop the candidate’s CV, name the client and the role, and a tracked link comes back. The document, the desk entry and the link are one action rather than three pages.
A consultant sending fifteen a week stops treating the tool as overhead.
- 02
A desk, grouped by client
Every live submission sits under the company it went to, in one of four states, with the clients that have gone quiet at the top.
Monday’s chase list is computed rather than remembered.
- 03
A report you can forward
One page per client: who you sent, for what role, and what their side did with each. It opens with no account and no login, and you can revoke it.
A chase that does not read as a chase, and evidence at renewal that you worked the role.
- 04
A view of each consultant’s desk
Filter to one person and see their submissions alone: how many are out, how many were read, how many have gone quiet, across how many clients.
Counts, never rankings. Oversight you can defend in a staff meeting.
- 05
Measurement your client can see
Every tracked CV says what is recorded. Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track are honoured before the reader arrives, and we gave ourselves no override.
The answer to the question your client’s legal team asks, ready before they ask it.
The example desk stops here. Yours, with your own clients and what each of them did, fills in from the first submission you send.
The part that leaves your building.
Everything above helps you decide who to chase. This is the part your client sees: one page, three candidates, and what their side actually did with each. It opens with no account and no login, shows only that client’s submissions, and you can revoke it.
It is a chase that does not read as a chase, and at renewal it is the difference between saying you worked the role and showing it.
Frozen when you send it
The report is a snapshot taken at the moment you mint it. Later readings do not silently rewrite a document your client already has.
Scoped to one client
It carries that client’s submissions and nothing else. No other client, no candidate ids, no link into the CV itself.
Names and engagement only
Who you sent, for what role, when, and what happened. Never the document, and never a note you wrote to yourself.
Whose desk it is.
Filter to one consultant and the desk narrows to their submissions: how many are out, how many were read, how many have gone quiet, across how many clients.
It reports counts and nothing else. No open rate, no ranking, no score, because a percentage compared across two different client lists is a comparison the underlying data cannot support, and a league table built on one is a management decision made with a number that does not mean what it appears to mean.
Nothing reaches the desk automatically either. A CV appears when the person who owns it assigns it, and it carries a title and its readings, never its contents. A consultant’s own job search, on their own account, cannot appear on their manager’s screen. That is a property of how the query is written, not a policy we promise to keep.
Four things it does not do.
Cheaper to read now than to discover in week two.
- Not an ATS, and not trying to be
- Your candidates, jobs, pipeline and invoicing stay where they are. This sits alongside Bullhorn, JobAdder, Vincere or a spreadsheet and answers one question none of them answer: what did the client do with the CV you sent.
- No integrations yet
- Nothing syncs to your CRM today. You create a named link per submission and send it the way you already send CVs. If that is too much friction for your volume, say so before you buy rather than after.
- It measures links, not inboxes
- If a client downloads the CV and mails it around internally, the trail stops at the download. Anyone claiming to follow a document through a company it has been forwarded inside is overstating what is possible.
- Your IT contact will find gaps
- There is no identity-provider integration and no public API. Both exist at some competitors. Our own pricing page claimed one of them until recently, which was our error and is corrected.
The bit competitors do quietly
Your client can see they are being measured, and can switch it off.
Every tracked CV carries a notice telling the reader what is recorded. If their browser sends Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track we stop before they arrive, and we have not given ourselves a way to override that. There is a control on the page for anyone whose browser sends neither.
Some products in this category advertise that their tracking is invisible to the client. In March and April 2026 the French and Italian regulators both published guidance requiring prior consent for tracking pixels and tracked links in email, across all message types, with no exemption for business recipients. Invisible is the design that now has a problem.
No reader identity
The viewer id is a fresh random value per session. We do not fingerprint, and we could not recognise the same person twice if asked to.
The candidate opts in per document
A CV reaches your desk when its owner assigns it, one document at a time, with the sharing explained where they do it.
Uncomfortable to sell, easier to defend
A client who feels watched is worse for you than one who was told. The disclosure is also the thing that survives the question.
Try it on one live role.
Send your next three submissions as named links and see which of them a client actually opened. Building and sending is free; the desk and the client report are on the Agency plan, from €87 a month for three seats.
No card to start. Three-seat minimum on the Agency plan.
